Infinity Reference 2 Anyone

[geode]

I have a mint pair of these little bookshelf speakers. Bought form an older gentleman who was the original owner. He thinks they are about 25 years old. I must say they sound pretty good. There is very little information on them. Anyone know the specs and when they were built. Anyone else have a pair and if so, what is your opinion of them.

Due to Infinity's propensity to re-use names, your question is not as easy to answer as you might think. However, based on your description of these as a bookshelf speaker, I believe the following information from the Infinity website applies:

Reference 2
http://www.infinitysystems.com/home/images/products_small/rs2.jpg
2-Way 6-1/2" Bookshelf Speaker. Co-injected woofer cones give a for smooth and natural sound presentation. Bass Driver 6-1/2". High Frequency Driver 1/2". Dimensions HxWxD 13" x 7 1/2" x 11 1/4".

Specs:
Frequency Response 50Hz - 20kHz
Sensitivity 89dB (2.83 volts/1 meter)
Impedance 8 ohms
Output Level MAX - 106dB spl
Recommended Power Amplifier Range 15 - 100 watts
Woofer 6.5" (160mm) co-injected
Tweeter 0.5" (12mm) Polycarbonate

These were made in the 90's, so not quite 25 years old, but getting there.

If that's not them, it could be these:

Thanks Tedrick
They are definitely Reference two. Nice little speakers with good sound.

I also have the First (black) pictured Reference 2 speakers.
I was using them as surrounds with my Kappa 7.2 series 2 Fronts.
