While using my Infinity RSMs today, a friend ran past one speakers, and it fell face down into the ground. That speaker is fine, and plays sound well following the fall, but now the other speaker that did not fall sounds awful. It only plays bass for 1-2 seconds and then sounds very...
My dad has a pair of Infinity RS6s from forever ago. I imagine they'd sound decent if it wasn't for the ring of foam around the 8'' woofer dry rotting. I've begun to take the speaker apart to re-foam or replace the woofer entirely (depending on which is cheaper and yields better results), but...
Hi!
I have a pair of infinity RS5000 that need some love.
The boxes are broken, foam is long gone, woofers are dirty and some of the plastic is broken. I also assume that the capacitors are not in the best shape.
I asked about them here few months ago and was told I need to do a lot of work...
Moderator's note: edited to remove price as all questions of value belong in the Dollars and Sense forum.
I just saw some infinity RSii listed. They are in rough shape, apparently all of the drivers work but all of the woofers have been replaced. How hard is it to get originals or equivalents...
On which Infinity model were used the Polycell tweeter 902-6412 ?
I'm trying to fix some RS-625 that I have bought unfortunately through Mercari. ( I wasn't at home for few days, when it arrived and thus they did not accept my complaint about the speakers being just thrown in a box and shipped...
I need a second audio setup at my studio but but since my audi addiction is only a few months old I don't know much about speakers yet. Had my sights set on some JBL 4412A blueface modified by Kerick Sound but someone got to them first. Now I'm between these:
DCM TF600
KLH 2
Infinity Reference...
I'm looking to recap these speakers as a tweeter is going in and out.
Any recommendations on what capacitor brand to replace them with? I'm not looking for a high end upgrade, a recommended direct replacement should be fine as these are home office speakers, but Culver doesn't seem to still be...
Its been a decades long journey and I have enjoyed and sometimes suffered the ride.
I have just completed the audio treatments of my room (5th dedicated listening room in my life). I have also restored most of my vintage stuff (looking for a shop to restore my Theta Transport and to update my...
Found a pair of minty, 1 owner RS-4b for sale for $425 and wondering if this is a fair price in Seattle or other similar metro area? They are in pristine shape and recently refoamed. I plan to audition them with my Cambridge AXR100 if the price sounds fair. This is very near the top of my...
In the process of rebuilding a pair of Reference Six speakers.
PO had replaced the woofers with non-Infinity speakers.
I want to look into putting the original woofers back in.
What is the PART NUMBER of the (10" I think) woofer of the Rerence Six?
Hi guys,
Does anyone have any info on these speakers? Not much online.
Considering buying them for use on either my sansui 5900z of my kenwood ka8300. What are your thoughts?
Thanks!
Hi there!
I recently came into ownership of a pair of beautiful Infinity RS IIBs. Believe it or not, I found them on the street being thrown out!!!!
I managed to get them repaired professionally and they are truly a wonder.
That said, I'm currently powering them with a really underpowered...
PART 1 - A Rare Find
I am starting this thread to document my restoration journey with the QLS-1s, pair 1420/21. For this first post of many I will give a little background as to the acquisition of them.
I was looking through FB Market Place as I do several times a day on the lookout for...
Hi everyone,
Just picked up a set of these barely used Infinity Reference One Bookshelf Speakers from a local seller for $30 including the stands. The foam and the tweeters look as in they are in near mint condition. Initially when I first saw them, I was somewhat disappointed because of...
I have two WA-120 Watkins woofers seized up tighter than tight. Pulled one open and the center pole is way out of center alignment. Is there a reasonable fix? I ordered a set of recone kits, but need to get them aligned first. Any thoughts? Looks like a total hack job on a prior attempted...
Gentlemen, knowing that certain receivers match better with certain speakers and that notation aside, to whom would you give the nod either through experience with some or all of these speakers in each group OR what you have ascertained over the years by rote memory

Hello friends I'm planning on replacing the capacitors in my much loved RS4. I found this technical manual unfortunately there are a couple of mistakes. This makes me hesitant to follow it.
I was able to verify or find the actual values of everything except for 19uF midrange cap
Does...
I am having a weird problem with my Entra Subwoofer. Sitting and idling with the system on but nothing playing... about every 20-30 minutes the subwoofer lets out a low rumble. I figure some capacitor is discharging or something. Other than that... it works fine.
Does anyone else have a...
Hey all,
As some of you may know, I recently purchased a pair of Infinity IRS Omegas. There's not too many around and as such there's not lots of info on them on the internet. Curiosity got the better of me today, and I decided to take a peek inside one and figured you'd all like to see as...
Hi everybody, newbie on the forum here!
I was gifted a pair of Renaissance 90s from a friend who switched to a new set. I have a couple of power amps at home and I was wondering if I can use to drive the speakers in horizontal bi-amp mode.
The first amp is Mark Levinson ML-9 which according to...
Thanks all for such a great meeting of minds and discussion of topics that have no bounds. I am originally from Tennessee but spend most of my time in Texas. Nashville area and Frisco to be exact.
My collection of audio gear was primarily acquired in the 70's with some additions in the...
Just picked up a set of infinity rs iiib boxes this week and outfitted them with some reconditioned RS iiia drivers I had and as my first set of infinity's the emit tweeters certainly live up to the hype and the poly cell midranges were a nice surprise.
I'd like to upgrade the capacitors and...
What's up folks?
I've got a chance to buy a Rotel RB 991 (200 wpc) for $395. Anyone have any experience or opinions about this amp? I currently have a Marantz 2230 and a Sansui 881 and would most likely use one of those as a preamp to the Rotel to drive some Infinity CS-3008'S. There's also a...
I recently picked up an unmatched pair of infinity RSb's in somewhat rough shape, but all of the drivers work. I wanted to document a bit of the process I'm going through, seeing as these speakers are getting harder to find. Information on them seems to be disappearing from the internet too, so...
