Price Paid:
$150.00
from Circuit City Summary: I have Infinity RS-3 bookshelf speakers in the family room, and have been very impressed by the sound and the quality. I needed/wanted outdoor speakers for the enclosed pool/patio area. Went to Circuit City and Best Buy, and listened to several brands. Wasn't really impressed w/Bose...I liked the JBL's at BB, but went with the Infinity Outriggers at CC because I'm so happy with the RS-3's. The Outriggers are awesome! Easy installation...full, clear and rich sound, plenty of power also, (I listen to DJ/trance, dance). Eric from Shaunee,OK gave these speakers a bum rap. I don't think the speakers are his problem....he needs to upgrade his wiring (from the lamp wire to Monster XP would REALLY help!), double check the polarity (+/+;-/-) and probably upgrade his amp/receiver (a 20 year old, 25 watt system won't cut it anymore!). Also, sometimes a volume control connection can also degrade the sound quality.
I know I had some 'fun' at Eric's expense, but these speakers are phenomenal. I have absolutely NO sound quality problems with these speakers. My only drawback was the price, $149.99ea is a tad high compared to some other brands, but after the installation, that's now a mute complaint. Yeah, I know, if I looked harder, I could have gotten a better deal somewhere else. I am EXTREMELY happy with my decision to go with the Outriggers. A definite high buy rating!
System: Sony STR-DE325 Sony CDP 360Z Strengths: Sturdy build, great sound Weaknesses: price
