A friend of mine has a chance to pick a pair up for $150. I know that these speakers used to retail for $1000/pr back in the early 90's but not much else. Can't even find specs haha. Anyone here have an experience with these? Thanks in advance!

Fronts: Energy RC-70
Center: Energy RC-LCR
Surrounds: Energy Veritas 1.0CM
Subwoofer: SVS PC12-NSD
Receiver: Onkyo TX-SR705

    I'd buy 'em.

    I think they have two 8" woofs, a 5" midrange, and something like a 1" tweet.

    Quick and dirty answer is that they're a scaled down version of the Elite TZ-9.

    How's the foam on them?
    I don't read the newsssspaperssss because dey aaaallllllllll...... have ugly print.
