- Snell LCR 500 - This is a rare find... These Snell speakers are really great! In testing, its clear that theyre meant for a larger home theater, not near filed monitoring. The cabinets are in great shape as are the grills. The surrounds are still OK for now, but Id say theyll need to be replaced within a year or so of regular use. Dont poke them! Im leaving the property and cannot take them back after theyre sold. This also means youre getting a good deal... need them gone!

We are very proud to offer the virtually impossible to find Snell Acoustics LCR 500 and HCC 500, the very first THX certified speaker system in the world. These were designed by Kevin Voecks, then of Snell, now of Revel, and were the very first THX certified speakers to be offered to consumers. Incidentally, they also happen to sound fantastic as a stereo pair, or as the mains in a front L/C/R set-up. The LCR 500 home theater speakers we are offering sold new for $2700.00 (+/- $5400 in todays dollars). The previous owner bought these when he was building his top of the line home theater. He spent more than $60,000 to complete his theater in the mid 1990s (adjusted for inflation that would be over $100,000 today). They more than hold their own today as some of the best speakers available for home theater. As most know, THX was founded by George Lucas. When he came to realize that his movies were being played at theaters with poor audio quality, he decided to do something about it. He released THX certification for commercial cinemas the same year he released Return of the Jedi. After that, THX grew to become the movie standard around the world, and THX certification held a lot of weight. THX-certified surround sound systems had to be capable of sustaining 85 dB over the entire movie, as well as being capable of hitting peaks of up to 105 dB, all while maintaining very low distortion. The speakers also need to be able to disperse sound very precisely. The THX certification that these speakers bear tells you that the Snell LCR 500 are capable of all of this. The LCR 500 are a 2-Way design with two 6.5 woofers and two tweeters. The dual woofer design allows these speakers to handle the bottom of the audio range without any distortion. The dual woofer design also adds to maximum output capabilities of these speakers. The tweeters are lined up very specifically so that you will have perfect sound dispersion when listening. The HCC 500 center channel is identical to the LCR 500, other than the fact that the tweeters are rotated. It is extremely important to have the tweeters stacked horizontally in order to achieve proper sound reproduction. The tweeters are distanced very precisely so that you do not have sound wave cancellation. Also, these speakers all have the original felt absorption panels surrounding the tweeters to absorb the sound waves that otherwise would refract off of the front baffle of the speakers. The tweeters also have an adjustable potentiometer on the rear so you can adjust the high frequency level to complement your listening environment acoustic properties. In addition to this, there is a 2A 250v fuse to protect the tweeters from any damage. The cabinets are rock solid, weighing in at 25lbs per speaker. There is no question about the quality construction of these speakers. All of this engineering went into these speakers to ensure that they project sound according to George Lucas original THX standards. These particular speakers are in excellent condition. All of them include the grills. The tweeters and woofers all work perfectly. The cabinets are in excellent condition. As previously mentioned, the felt tweeter absorption panels are all perfectly intact and are very clean. The potentiometers for the tweeters have all been recently cleaned with Deoxit and the 2 amp, 250 volt fuses for the tweeters are all in perfect condition, having never been blown. There are two listening modes for these speakers, which is the reason for the four gold-plated binding posts on the rear. One pair is to be used for Normal Operation and one pair for Compensated operation. The Compensated operation allows you to compensate for something such as placing these speakers behind an acoustically transparent screen or directly against your wall. We are separately listing the matching subwoofers and will entertain bundled offers for the entire set. These are in excellent cosmetic and operating condition and priced to sell. As an alternative to shipping, we welcome in person pickup at our store in northern New Jersey.
