The Energy Take Classic is a compact passive 5.1 speaker system that is best known for strong surround sound in a medium-sized room when paired with a receiver and subwoofer. The small 3.5-inch woofers lean on the sub for bass, but the setup has a long track record of sounding great and even outperforming some soundbars. The main catch is that no receiver is included, so it needs an AVR or amplifier before it can be used. It is a solid fit if you already have the extra gear or plan to add it.
Common Questions (5)
You need an AVR that supports at least 5 channels, and a used Yamaha RX-V385/RX-V383 or Denon AVR-S270BT is a practical budget match. Optical 5.1 receivers can also work, but many features may require the original remote.
No. It includes only passive speakers, so you need a separate AVR or amplifier to use it as a home theater system. A 5-channel receiver is the minimum for full 5.1 setup.
Yes, it has been used successfully in medium-sized rooms with Yamaha RX-V383/RX-V385 receivers and still sounds great. The small 3.5-inch woofers rely on the subwoofer for bass, so the sub is important for full sound.
Yes, but only through an amplifier or AVR first because these are passive speakers. Direct connection to a computer is not enough.
Yes. The back plastic mount can be removed and the speakers can be installed with Monoprice mounts for ceiling use.

I was going to get for another room. I have Klipsch but always heard good stuff about Energy. Now, I'm feeling as if this would just be a waste that I'd be unhappy with in a separate room
