    Infinity Crescendo 3008 6 1/2" Mid-Bass Replacement

    Hello, I recently purchased a pair of Infinity Crescendo 3008s from eBay. I wish I could say I got a good deal, but when I set the speakers up I heard an awful distortion. I isolated it to one of the 6 1/2" mid-bass drivers. It produces sound, but the sound is very distorted. I checked...

    Found a pair of Infinity RS625 for $175...Should I buy?

    Hey, guys first post. I'm a bit of a newbie, any help/advice would be appreciated. Is this a good deal? Or should I wait until this weekend when I can look around some thrift stores/pawn shops and try to find a better deal? Right now I'm using some Panasonic SB-ZR30 speakers that I've had for...

    Speakers speakers and more speakers.

    Over the past couple of weeks I've had very good luck with speakers. First off, I found a pair of Realistic Mach ones, gave 'em a shot ($40, couldn't say no) and they were alright. Party speakers for sure. Glad to have 'em in my collection. Second, I grabbed a pair of Janszen Z2- CF, my first...

    Infinity 2000A Restoration

    My first speaker was a pair of Rectilinear IIIs (which I sold, and which are the only pair of speakers I have sold). My second speaker was the first Infinity product I could afford: the Infinity 2000. The first product, the Servo Statik 1 was a bit out of my price range as a college student. The...

    Seeking Advice on Rehabbing Kappa 6.1’s

    FYI this will be my first real speaker repair attempt. I am looking for some guidance on testing and repairing some Kappa 6.1 Series II’s that I just acquired. I picked them up off of Craigslist for $50. As one would expect from speakers at that price, the surrounds are shot, the grills aren’t...

    Infinity Renaissance 80 speaker fell, now EMIM and EMITs not working

    So unfortunately my left channel Ren 80 took a good tumble about 3 ft to the floor... Ever since the Tweeter and Mid-range EMIM and EMIT ribbon speakers arent working. No sound is coming out of them at all. (The woofer sounds fine.) Is this a crossover issue? Think I could fix it? I don't know...

    RS4b paper layer under foam surround..? Help!

    So.. I’m refoaming a set of rs4bs, and I have encountered a 1/16” paper riser that lives under the original foam. I have reconed speakers before, but never encountered this. In the past, I had been advised to scrape down to the raw metal of the frame so you have a clean, solid surface to glue...

    Hi everyone, longtime lurker first time poster here. Let me start off by saying that I'm pretty much a newbie at hi-fi in general. I've been reading around for a while but have very little real world experience with this stuff. Recently I found a deal I couldn't pass up for a pair of Infinity...

    Repairing cracked Infinity 8" IMG woofer cones

    One of my Kappa 6.1 woofers has two cracks in its cone, each about 1.5" long. One of the cracks extends into the silicon surround and adjacent foam. So this crack is one long line from the cone through to the surround foam. I'm considering applying a paper bag "backpatch" for each crack...

    Amp for Infinity Kappa 7.1 Help!!

    Hello! I own four Kappa 7.1. The original plan was to conect them in an horizontal passive biamplification with two Parasound 2125 v.2, plugged to a Preamp Parasound P5. Connecting all the four higs and mids frecuencies to a single one, and the lows into the other amp. Each Parasound 2125 gives...

    WTD: 5" Driver Recommendation for Infinity RS-7b

    I've got a pair of infinity RS-7b's that have some random replacement midrange driver and they don't sound as good as I expect they can. I don't know what the exact difference between the RS7 and RS7b, but they look similar and the RS7 spec sheet lists them as 5" (12.7cm) Midrange with...

    Infinity Kappa 8's Missing Base - Need Dimensions to Fabricate?

    Hi Folks, I just bought a pair of Infinity Kappa 8's, great condition, except for two things: The Base plates are missing, and I've looked everywhere, nowhere to be found, so I think I'll just Fabricate them. Does anyone own a pair? and could I impose on you to get me the dimensions I need to...

    Last week I'd never heard of the Infinity WTLC, now I own four of them

    I had heard these mentioned when I was researching my Kappas 6 last week, but never paid much attention. Then yesterday a guy just throwaway mentions he has them for sale in an ad for receiver. I immediately inquire if the tweeters work and when I can get them. I drove all the way across the...

    Hi All I have just picked up a set of Kappa 6.1 series 2 here in Oslo. They look brand new but after having tried them with my old JCB 120RMS amplifier, the message overload appeared a couple of times at mid volume and finally one of the original 902-6194 infinity woofer gave up. I think the...

    Infinity Reference 60 or Canton Ergo SC-L

    Hi everyone, I was planning on replacing my current Infinity Reference 60s (EMIT-R tweeters) with new Elac Uni-Fi Slims, but let's just say that my budget shrunk, and I had to buy a separate power amp (Emotiva BasX 300). I am, however, within range of a pair of (mint condition!) Canton Ergo...
