Community Reviews

The Energy CF 50s are budget floorstanding speakers that can be a strong value at about $200 a pair, especially as a step up from basic bookshelf speakers. They are described as needing a decent receiver, and bi amping with quality cables can help them sound more refined. Break in around 100 hours is also tied to decent sound. The main caution is that they are old stock and not in the same league as higher end Energy models, with some comparisons putting them no better than modest bookshelf speakers.

  • After roughly 100 hours of break-in, the Energy CF-series speakers can sound pretty decent.

  • Bi-amping these speakers with quality cables can make them sound pretty legit.

  • At about $200 per pair, the speakers can be an improvement over $100 bookshelf speakers.

  • The CF-50s can be a reasonable option for a small office when compared against an existing speaker setup.

  • The speakers can sound worse for music even when bi-amped.

  • Some buyers report the CF-50s sound no better than Polk bookshelf speakers.

  • These speakers may be old stock rather than newer production models.

  • The deal price comparison can be misleading because comparable Sony 3-way floorstanding speakers cost $374 per pair.

[QUOTE=wdslkd;187188162]I picked these up a few months ago; I would not have considered them at $800. For $200, I'm pleased, it's pretty damn cheap and they're definitely an improvement over the $100 bookshelves they replaced. That said, I would have opted instead for the CF-70 pair at $300 that happened a month later.

I got in on the CF-70 deal and I must say that after about 100 hr break in they do sound pretty decent.

If I hadn't already purchased Dali Oberon 5 for my small office, I would have definitely given these CF-50s a try at this price.

Not a fair comparison, those Dali's are on a whole other level or two.

Don't make me come over there and punch you in the chest. Your Oberon's are in a totally different zip code.

Energy USED to be an excellent brand. I had some Energy Veritas towers and bookshelf speakers in Rosenut and they were some of the best sounding speakers I'd ever heard. Then they got acquired by Klipsch/Audiovox and they basically bastardized them.

I don't have any experience with these newer models.
these are not newer models, just old stock

Those are $374 a pair. That's not "around the same price."
Then do your own research. This isn't a shopping outsourcing platform.

I did my own research long ago. I was just proving you don't know what you're talking about.

From a price perspective, certainly, but are you sure these Energy speakers can't sound as good?

No these are simply cheap speakers. I have a pair of Polk bookshelves that sound just as good. Heck my Monolith in walls sound better in 4ch stereo or what ever they call it now
