from eBay Summary:
I recently picked up a second pair of the CS 3006 for my surrounds. I found the price attractive, now having these speakers front and back. I have used the 3007 on the mains with it's extra woofer. The Denon is a 7.1 channel audio processor. I have a rear channel in the back wall, Infinity ERS 800, which contains an 8" woofer and the authenic EMIT series k tweeter. All my other speakers use the emit-r, which is not at all bad in a home theater system.
I do perfer the EMIT ribbon tweeters used on older and higher-end Infinity models, yet for home theater, these speakers seen to offer good balance between the cheap " Best Buy" speakers usually found in single receiver processor systems and the high-end seprates, costing ten times as much, at least!
With a mid-quality unit, like the Denon 3802, one can get the full theater sound effect with this unit by adding outboard bass amps, such as the NAD 2400 THX I use. Several other models will work just as well, but it is a good idea to find one that has gain controls on the power amplifier. With the Denon and my two pair of Infinity CS 3006, a Kappa vidio 2 and a rear channel for DTS ES or THX EX, provides me with the quality of home theater to satisfy my desires. Several good subwoofers go well with this system. The nice thing is that most of these products can be found at a great savings on the used market! Strengths:
Both the 3006 and 3007 are great values when found on the used market. Weaknesses:
Only in a stereo system for critical listening with expensive amplification, then other choices may be elected, but at a higher price. Similar Products Used:
The CS 3006 is the most atypical Infinity speaker I use; CS 3007 would be an option with two 8" woofers. Have many other Infinity speakers
