Review 1 of 6

Price Paid:  $125.00 from Pawn shop

Summary:
Its amazing what you can find if you look in the right places. The imaging, sound stage and dynamics of these speakers are on par with speakers costing $2000. All my friends, even those who dont know much about stereo gear have said how great they sound. They even sound good on the old Kenwood, but a bit bright. They seam like a perfect match for my Musical Fidelity AC3R amp and pre-amp. I use Monster Cable Refence throught out my system. They dont sound nearly as good on mid-fi gear. If you want a quick fix and youve got a clean amp. Buy these babys. Just goes to show it doesnt have to be over $5000 to audiophile grade.

Strengths:
Amazing mid range for two way speaker.

Weaknesses:
None for the price.

Review 2 of 6

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
Great bass, lots of treble bite. Bought these speakers when they first came out in 1995 when I lived in California. Liked them so much I paid more to ship them home than I did for the speakers. Shame I didn''t buy some of the bigger SL floorstanders too.

Strengths:
Bomb-proof build quality, real oak construction, fully-sealed cabinet gives tight fast bass. No dome tweeter I''ve ever heard gives as much zing as this unit.

Weaknesses:
Spring-clip terminals, treble detail is almost too transparent, sometimes revealing poor recordings.

Similar Products Used:
Nope. These Infinities have seen off many a tempting upgrade from the likes of B&W, KEF, etc...

Review 3 of 6

Summary:
I have had these speakers for about five years and they still sound GREAT. The bass that is produced from that small woofer is amazing and the high end is very sharp. I used these speakers for my mains for a few years before I upgraded to surround sound, now they are my surround speakers. If you can find these speakers and are shopping on a budget I WOULD LOOK NO FURTHER.

Strengths:
Great Bass For The Small Size

Weaknesses:
The 6 ohm rated load caused a minor problem

KLH, Yamaha, Infinity

Review 4 of 6

Summary:
Overall an incredible buy from Ubid for around $47 for the pair. I am using them as surround speakers with a Denon avr1700 receiver and an Infinity cc-1 center channel with bose model 4b mains (As far as I am concerned the only Bose worth anything) The speakers also work pretty well as main speakers if you don't mind a slight lack of bass. If you have a limited budget you should definitly purchase these speakers. I highly recomend them.

Strengths:
Surprisingly good bass for a bookshelf speaker.

Review 5 of 6

Summary:
I bought these at uBid for 47 a pair, and picked up 2 pair, one as my main, and one as my surrounds, and they are excellent speakers. You'd think the bass wouldn't be that great with only a 6-1/2" woofer, but they pump, and the highs sound very clean and bright. Overall, these are excelent speakers, and for the price, probably the best thing you can buy if you are on a budget like me.

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
