Great speakers, I think that they might be my favorite of all the moderately priced bookies I have owned. They are similar to the newer RC-10s, but with a bigger cabinet and driver and therefore more bass and dynamic slam. The highs are airy and sweet. I think that I would take these over the Lsi7s that have been through my house a few times. The reason for selling? WAY too big for either my office or bedroom setup. If I hadn't installed in-ceiling speakers in the family room and promised the wifey no more bookies in there these would be my mains you can bet your bottom dolla!

They are in very nice condition overall, the grills (not pictured but included) look brand new, and the magnet attachments are pretty sweet. There are a few small marks on the back as you can see, and a few very small (less than a half in long) places where the veneer has been slightly nicked at the seams. A few light scratches, but pretty light. 7/10 on a-gon scale; no deep scratches, crushed corners, etc.

Please pay via paypal gift or free bank transfer or add 3% if it is a credit card transaction. I will also except a USPS MO. I will ship FedEx ground in a sturdy box with solid stryrofoam all around. I am willing to ship to Alaska, Hawaii, or Canada, but it will cost extra I am sure.

Thanks!

    I have a pair of the RC-10s so if these reach below those, then I'd have to agree that they are a worthy competitor to the LSi-7s. Nice price too!

    GLWTS!

    Great speakers, I've had a pair on my patio rig---OUTDOORS for over 6 years. Very good price too, retail was $600/pr.

    Oh man...that sounds AWESOME! Unfortunately the covered area of my patio is only about 8 feet wide and maybe 6 feet deep. I have a pair of m3II mounted in the corners and they sound pretty good for the money, but the energy's would rock my yard. Just not enough room for them, and need to recover funds.

    BUMP!
