i was maybe intrested in buying the energy veritas 2.3 speakers. i currently have athena asb2 speakers that sound realy good ....how much more bettter would the energy speakers sound ...im using a HK avr330 reciever
Listen and compare...that's all that you can really do. Some will say better, some will say you really can't compare bookshelves to towers. They will sound different, but if one is better than the other is up to you.
The Energy speakers are significantly better than the Athenas, but they would also require a substantial upgrade over the HK to sound their best. I'm not trying to knock either the Athenas or the HK receiver you have, but to get the most out of the Veritas line they need more clean power than the 330 will put out.
