How Are Infinity Primus Speakers? (1 Viewer)

[Conor]

Its about time for me to upgrade from my Sony HTIB Speakers so I'm gonna go and audition these tomorrow. $112.00 each. thats like 90.00 off retail each. everywhere online shows them for like 400.00 for the pair. so 225.00 looks like a steal

thoughts? worth the money?

many consider them cheap and not the best sounding when compared to the alphas. But I suppose for that price it couldn't hurt to try them

I listened to them at CC and thought they sounded good. At $225 it is hard to go wrong. They don't reach deep so it is advised to have a sub on hand

I just found them onsale at compusa for 80.00 each!
160.00 for the pair!

oh man this is gonna be tough to resist

Available for pick up only. Out of stock in the nearest 6 stores in my area... I would have picked them up for my dad.

I went to Compusa to demo them when they were on sale for $99 ea. by me. Hooked up to an HK 430 I thought they sounded like cr@p.

Same receiver pushed a pair of JBL E90's REAL well. Wound up demoing and liking the E80's (not as much as 90's, but I was already over my budget with the E80s).
Wound up with the JBL's and could not be happier for the $$$ I spent.

I did not like the Primus 250 in the least, BUT, you may, so make sure you demo them real well before buying them.

Sterephile did a review of the Primus 150's they said it was as good as the Paradigm Atoms... They found the Primus to be brighter, and better in the high end, but the Atoms had better midbass...
