    Description

    Pair of Vintage Infinity Reference Standard R.S. 2.5 Floor Speakers.
    These speakers were originally purchased by me in Feb 1982 (see photo the original receipt) and have been in my possession since and have been wonderfully cared for and maintained.
    The Infinity RS 2.5 was one of the highest regarded speakers during the 'golden age' of audiophilia from the mid 1970s through the early 1980s. They were highly acclaimed for their amazing range and sound quality as well as their remarkable construction and are true Hi-Fi 'Hall of Fame' speakers.
    The speakers are aesthetically beautiful and sound amazing.
    Some of the features/specs -
    A big cabinet – 51 inches high, 18 wide but only 11 deep. The weight is 117 lbs. each.
    12″ (30cm) Infinity-Watkins dual Drive Woofer.
    Two EMIM (Electromagnetic Induction Midrange) drivers in dipole configuration.
    Two EMIT (Electromagnetic Induction Tweeters) one facing rearward.
    The bass unit crossover is set at 300Hz.
    Crossover – 300Hz (adjustable with electronic crossover) and 5000hz.
    Dipolar open frame design: That makes them sound very open, with wide and deep soundstage in par with electrostatic
    Ribbon high and mid: They are among the most transparent and sweetest drivers at any price.
    Sealed bass box and Watkins dual voice coils woofers: That makes them produces authoritative bass with details.
    The woofers were professional re-foamed.
    The disintegrated foam on the high and mid panels have been replaced.
    The speakers are in a great overall condition showing minor blemishes from normal use and age (see pictures)
    Do some research on these speakers / Google the reviews and you will find near unanimous opinion of their exceptional quality.
    It's an understatement to say that they don't make speakers like this anymore
