Are Infinity bookshelf speakers good?
They highs are very detailed and yet very smooth – a hard combo to achieve at any price. The mid-range is excellent with great tonality. These speakers can articulate very complex music with great clarity especially for this price. I feel there are no cons for this price they represent the $450 a pair bookshelf bar.
Which is better JBL or Infinity?
The highs are much less bright than the 3/4″ from the JBL. Both are titanium tweeters but the Infinity is more natural sounding. I get better bass from the 6 1/2″ woofer than I do from the 8″ from the E50. Just a better build/designed speaker IMO.
What’s the difference between Rs 1 and Rs 2 Infinity speakers?
The RS-II was designed to be a lower end, smaller version of the RS-1. It’s a much less physically imposing speaker than the RS-1 but still sounds great. The early versions (the RS-II) used poly-coned midranges. The later version (the RS-IIA/B) switched over to EMIMs just like the RS-1, were bi-ampable, and came with a separate active crossover.
