Energy's attention to sound

Take Classic components were developed with Energy's principles in mind. Their "Flat-On Axis" frequency response with wide bandwidth means that speakers should reproduce the entire audio range in a uniform manner. By ensuring that no one frequency dominates any other, Energy ensures that every note is as natural as possible. Every speaker has wide and constant dispersion, so sound at all frequencies radiating from the speaker should be in an even pattern, in all directions. Energy's attention to detail brings a more natural sounding, rich listening experience to you.

Speaker placement suggestions

For left or right front channels, the distance between the speakers should be 6-8 feet at minimum for the best stereo imaging. The optimum room shape is rectangular, with the speakers along one of the shorter walls, facing the opposite side. If possible, do not place speakers against a wall or at rear of a bookshelf; corner placement is usually the worst option. Try to keep the speakers — especially rear vented models — at least two feet from the surface behind it, unless you use a vent plug. For best results mounting on a rear wall, position the speakers so they flank the main listening area and point toward the front of the room. They should be raised to a height of approximately six feet and should ideally have a space of six feet between them.
