#129 ELAC Varro RS500: $1,299.98 Estimated Crutchfield eBay
Larger model: the ELAC Varro RS700 (ranked higher, estimated 3.8/5).
Pros: Sealed reference enclosure with a 10-inch aluminum sandwich cone and HEX surround powered by a 500W RMS BASH amplifier. Provides excellent transient accuracy, lower group delay, and AutoEQ room correction down to 18Hz.
Cons: Sealed alignment requires significant power down deep, resulting in lower maximum burst SPL than ported counterparts at 20Hz. Premium pricing over the PS series.
How it compares: Just above it: Klipsch RP-1000SW - $625 cheaper. Just below it: GoldenEar ForceField 30 - $700 cheaper.
