Technology

Bragging rights

The CB-5 features advanced Energy audio engineering:

* Flat On-Axis Frequency Response with Wide Bandwidth: 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 the way it was intended to be-and the sound as natural as possible.
* Wide and Constant Dispersion: Sound at all frequencies radiating from the speaker should be in an even pattern, in all directions throughout the room.
* Low Distortion and Resonance: No speaker system is distortion- or resonance-free, but Energy has achieved a significantly lower distortion level, a clearly audible improvement.

The CB-5 bass reflex, front vented bookshelf speaker offers terrific performance and great features:

* Ribbed Elliptical Surround to deliver clean, distortion free midrange and bass.
* Front venting for more powerful bass response

Using the same woofer with Ribbed Elliptical Surround as its larger siblings and a similar .75-inch hyperbolic aluminum dome tweeter, the CB-5 delivers exceptional imaging and a large soundstage, along with impressive bass. Identical drivers allow the CB-5 to blend acoustically with other speakers in its family, making it perfect for use in satellite, surround side and rear applications. Port plugs are included for wall mounting.

Maximum performance tips

The distance between speakers typically should be 6-8 feet at minimum for good stereo imaging. The optimum room shape should be rectangular, with the speakers along one of the shorter walls, facing the opposite side. Corner placement is not recommended.
