Paid $400 in 2012 for these and they are very good entry level speakers for home theater setup. Sold it few years later when I upgraded. With glossy finish they look great too.

This is the set that put the Bose Acoustimass out of business. It is really that good. Canadians made some really good speakers. RIP Mirage and PSB.

The brand Energy was so good that Klipsch purchased them.

Had thought about buying some RSL or Ascend Acoustics speakers to shrink from the towers + bookshelf speakers I have in my family room, but are they really $1000+ better than these would be? Just want something that sounds good enough when watching movies.

These sound excellent. It would take a lot to justify that $1k in my opinion.

I bought one of these a long time ago... Definitely entry level, but they sound good -- amazing value at this price.

Depends on your room size, how far away you sit from the speakers, how loud you want to listen, and how much of a felt/visceral experience you want. That mostly depends on the sub, in which case yes the RSL 10e bundled with some RSL speakers would be well worth the money: https://rslspeakers.com/products/...ter-system.

OTOH, if you just want something that sounds much better than the TV speakers, and provides much better spatial effects than soundbars claiming to have "simulated" surround sound, and a more decent sub than the crappy plastic pseudo-subs that soundbar/Sonos/Bose systems come with, this $179 Energy package will do---especially in a smaller room and if you only listen at moderate or low levels.

The speakers are great at this price point. The sub will leave you wanting more. A solid entry level system.
