Based on what other companies offer if you look at them closely they aren't bad but they do have plenty of competition . Lets look at the $500 dollar a pair satellite wow all the way down to 100hz the build quality look good not jaw dropping beautiful . Now the 2.1 system states $3500 retail for (1) 10 inch sub which again looks ok but not nicer than the competition I dig the cheap plastic remote and xover unit very snazzy(2) 4 inch satellites again nice but nothing too ground breaking . I guess it is up for each consumer to decide but I can NOT see anywhere close the imaginary list price of $3500 it's a marketing game as far as I see it . I don't have the list prices in front of me but I am curious what Energy would list for the www.energy-speakers.com/products/price-up-1000/?sku=V-SW10 and a pair of www.energy-speakers.com/bookshelf-speakers/?sku=V-MINI-BS build quailty is similar maybe a bit better , my guess is the list prices would be higher than RSL deal price but nowhere near $3500 and a street price might even the same as the RSL deal or even a bit lower and yes I think we are comparing an apple to an apple .
