About the Energy RC-6C
Deep bass and crystal-clear highs form the signature sound of the Energy RC-6C to make it an outstanding addition to your home system. Energy designed the RC-6C for wide dispersion. This makes it a perfect choice as a stealth surround speaker or to bring full musical presence alive through your home. You'll hear the instrumental nuance of your favorite artists as well as every whisper of dialogue, and each roll of thunder from the sound track. The pivoting tweeter even lets you aim the highs right to your favorite spot. And with the flip of a switch, you can adjust the tweeter to suit your tastes. You can paint the included grille to match your space perfectly so you won't even know it's there until the system's turned on.

Driver Technology
2-Way Speaker Design: The RC-6C is equipped with the following drivers:
- Tweeter: 1" aluminum dome tweeter, mounted on a swiveling bridge that can be angled toward the listening area (+/- approximately 25°)
- Woofer: 6-1/2" Kevlar cone woofer; uses a ribbed elliptical surround
Surround: The woofer uses a patented Ribbed Elliptical Surround; by changing the shape of the speaker surround to an ellipse, rather than the traditional half roll, distortion is reduced and the maximum excursion is increased.
High Frequency EQ: A switch on the RC-6C's frame (behind the grille) allows you to contour the high frequency output. The Cut position reduces the output by 2 dB from 2 kHz to 20 kHz, useful when the speaker is mounted in a very reflective room.
Break-In Period: ENERGY recommends that you play the RC-6C for a 100 hour break-in period before playing at high volume and making final sound adjustments. This is easily done by putting your compact disc player on repeat mode while playing a CD with a wide dynamic range ant normal listening levels.
Connections
Speaker Terminals: The speaker has a pair of spring posts that can accept, pin connectors, single or dual banana plugs, or bare wire up to 12-gauge wire.
Mounting Options
Installation: The speaker can be installed in new or existing construction; it requires a cutout diameter of 8 inches and is held in place with four integral plastic mounting ears. The required depth to install the speaker is 5" from the mounting surface (this includes the thickness of the drywall). Behind the opening there must be a 7/8" clearance around the speaker to accommodate the ears. Speakers should be installed in drywall at least 3/8" thick. A cardboard template is included to assist you in making the cutout.
Paintable: Both the plastic frame and aluminum grille can be painted to match the ceiling; a cardboard paint mask is included.
