Clearing out the Audio Closet Sale: Speakers

I've got too much audio gear for the apartment we're living in so I've to make some room! I may have additional speakers for sale in the near future as well.

Dynaudio Emit M20 Bookshelf speakers - One pair.

These have the Black Satin finish and they were 10/10 when I bought them about a month ago & nothing's changed - these are, for all intents and purposes, new. I went with some floorstanding Dynaudio speakers days after I got these and these went back in the box - these are nowhere near broken in. In my setup, these offered the best overall sound out of all the Dynaudio bookshelf speakers that I've auditioned in the main listening room. Please be aware that these are big speakers. Because of their size, I cannot relegate them to the bedroom setup or these wouldn't be going anywhere! Original box, packing material, and grills included. What Hi-Fi Award Winner - Products of the year 2016. Seriously folks, as I type this I don't know if it's a good idea to let them go. You'd better snap them up before I come to my senses! $750

Energy Reference Connoisseur 70 Floorstanding speakers - One Pair.

Black Ash Veneer. Three-way design featuring one tweeter, one midrange driver, and two woofers. Two ports on the back and two sets of binding posts. Outstanding speakers that punch way outside of their class. Easily 9/10.

Original boxes, packing materials, and spikes included. Local pickup is preferred but I will ship them at buyer's expense ( and risk! There is no safer way to get them than to pick them up yourself!) Local pickup you can also audition. $600 for the pair.

Energy Reference Connoisseur LCR (Left/Center/Right) speakers - 3 speakers available.

Three-way design with one tweeter, 2 midrange drivers, and two woofers. 2-ports on the back and two pairs of binding posts. These can be used for Left, Right, or Center. Buy all three and you'll have a seamlessly matched front end. Again, these are outstanding speakers that punch way outside of their class. Easily 9/10 but I will say 8/10 two of them just to be on the safe side. They fit right between the floorstanding RC-70 and the RC-10 in regards to sound quality.

Original box, packing materials, grill, and port plugs for only one of these. I do have the port plugs & grills for all of them - one has the Energy logo on the grill for use in the center position but you can easily remove the logo. I will carefully pack the two that I do not have the original packing material for so they get to you safely. Local pickup is preferred but I will ship them at buyer's expense ( and risk! There is no safer way to get them than to pick them up yourself!) Local pickup you can also audition. $300 each.

Energy Reference Connoisseur 10 Bookshelf speakers - One Pair

Black aAsh Veneer. These have amazing output given their size. Highly regarded here on the forum. Single port on the back with two sets of binding posts. One speaker is missing a small amount of the veneeer on the lower right corner. Original box, packing materials, grills (if I can find them) & port plugs included. $200

I ran all of the Energy speakers without the grills while I was using them. The grills on the Energy speakers are magnetic so they are super easy to take on and off.

For local pickup, I am located on the Northeast side of Chicago.

PayPal fee & shipping are buyer's responsibility. Thank you for looking!

    If I bought speakers before Dallas, Skip might cut me off. Can't have that...but I thought about it.

    Someone talk to me about these Dyns vs LSiM 703s. I need to stay away from this forum if I'm ever going to stick with a decision...

    We all know that the best way to audition speakers is in your home, on your equipment, in the room with which the speaker will be interacting.

    That said, here are a few reviews:

    I honestly can't believe the Energy speakers are still available. If I had a few spare bucks I'd buy the LCR to go with my RC70s in a heartbeat. They are the best sounding speakers I've heard in my system.

    The RC70's are an outstanding speaker that don't get the respect they deserve. Great bass and very smooth treble.

    I agree on the Energy speakers, they are fantastic!

    The RC-10 is one of my favorite bookies I have ever owned, if I had a use for them (and if they were cherry or rosenut B)), I'd be all over them.
    So you do have a use for them but you need them to be in a different veneer. I understand completely. :)

    I had to spend a lot more to barely edge out the Energy Speakers. You know how it is, just that little bit of finesse and detail was enough to push me toward a different set of speakers. For the money, I highly doubt you'll find more capable speakers than these.

    I'm toying with the idea of selling my Dynaudio Excite speakers (X14's & X24) and sticking with my RC-LCR's across the front for the HT. The Dynaudio speakers, IMHO, are overqualified for HT use only.

    The RC-70 + RC-LCR + RC-10 would make for an amazing 5-channel HT/2-Channel hybrid setup. Best of both worlds in one convenient, timbre matched set!

    WOW, the lcr and rc-10s would make a killer little front end for a dual-purpose setup! The RC-10s are one of my favorite bookies at the $200ish used range. really smooth, extended tweeter, a little bit forward which makes htem very fun, they are smooth through the midrange and have really outstanding bass for their size. Get a small sealed sub with a built-in crossover that goes down to at least 50hz and you could get great sound for your tunes!

    The RC-LCR pair of speakers is still available and I'm shocked that they are still here. 3-way design that can be used horizontally or vertically. Very versatile and very big sound from a relatively small enclosure.
