Default Vintage Infinity

Last week I bought a pair of Infinity RSIII-bs, care of Deafbykhorns, and we are really enjoying them in our upstairs system. I am the original owner of a pair of RS4s, and continue to enjoy them.

The RSIIIs still sound great (vintage c. 1983), and I'm very impressed by the condition they're in as well as the tremendous job John did packing them for the trip from Jacksonville to Atlanta.

One other thing about this speaker is that when I look at it, it doesn't seem dated to me at all. It's still a beautiful speaker. If I looked at a 26-year-old speaker back in '83, I'd think it dated. I don't know if this is because I'm getting older or what, but Infinity did have a really good-looking lineup.
