Product Description

From the Manufacturer

From the Manufacturer The RC-Mini and RC-Mini Center are two speakers that prove amazing things do come in small packages. The diminutive size would imply a lack of performance, but their blood line is rich with Energy brand technology and sonic accuracy. Based on the Reference Connoisseur series, the RC-Mini and RC-Mini Center have beautiful finishes in a variety of colors. The furniture-grade cabinetry offers unparalleled quality and workmanship.

RC-Mini: High Technology, Small Footprint

High-quality components make the RC-Mini speaker head of its class

Combine the advanced technology and finishes with the cabinet size and form factor, and instantly the RC-Mini is the head of the class. Housed within minuscule cabinets is a cast basket woofer using Energy’s patented Ribbed Elliptical Surround technology and Kevlar TM cone, delivering incredible extension, dynamics and bass response. This revolutionary woofer is teamed up with Energy’s Hyperbolic TM aluminum dome tweeter, which delivers smooth, articulate and extended high frequencies. The tweeter and woofer technology are identical to the larger Reference Connoisseur Series, ensuring a listening experience that is uncompromised. The result of all this patented technology is a small cabinet with huge performance, in home theater or 2-channel systems.

The quality and workmanship are second to none, ensuring your listening experience complements your home. The RC-Mini also includes a mounting bracket that is simple to install and offers incredible versatility. This bracket allows the speaker to seamlessly integrate with your home, while delivering an uncompromised audio performance.

The Energy Advantage

Energy brand speakers are the culmination of over 30 years of scientific research and development in acoustics, speaker engineering and manufacturing. The philosophy of design behind every Energy brand product has its foundation in our pioneering study with the Canadian National Research Council (NRC) almost 20 years ago, which lead to incredible breakthroughs in speaker technology. Understanding how people listen has led us to three simple, yet vital factors that are the basis for the Energy brand’s speaker design and construction. These factors are flat on-axis frequency response, wide and constant dispersion, and low distortion.

Flat On-Axis Frequency Response with Wide Bandwidth

Flat frequency response is the ability of a speaker to reproduce the entire audio range in a uniform manner. By ensuring that no one frequency dominates over any other, Energy ensures that every sound is reproduced the way it was intended, as naturally as possible.

Wide and Constant Dispersion

This refers to sound—at all frequencies—which radiates from the loudspeaker, ideally in an even pattern, in all directions throughout the listening environment. In nature, sound radiates all around us. A speaker must be able to reproduce this as accurately as possible, thus spreading the sounds we hear constantly, consistently.

Low Distortion & Resonance

While no speaker system is totally devoid of distortion or resonance characteristics—speaker systems with as much as 25-30% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) at bass frequencies can still be considered "high end"—Energy consistently achieves significantly lower distortion levels in its entire line of speaker products. It's an improvement that is clearly audible.

A Constant Pursuit of Excellence

This basic Energy philosophy hasn't changed in over 30 years, yet our extensive research methodology and the available technology and materials have steadily improved, enabling Energy to continue to manufacture speaker systems that achieve outstanding performance through consistent improvements to all of these three critical parameters.

We’re constantly working on designing new and improved speakers. Our engineers and designers are diligently working to better reproduce sound in the most realistic manner possible. Years of expertise and the best measuring and testing equipment available allow us to continue to push the boundaries of sound reproduction.
