I couldn't resist increasing the Infinity collection by adding these $50 Craigslist Infinity RS 2.5s today.
Currently being gently (re)broke-in and it's nice to finally hear my 1st EMIM.

Thats a score for sure! Congratulations....

A steal I should say.
What condition are the surrounds in? Also check for cabinet air leaks and any joint failures especially on the bottom curved section.

It's always fun to find a "new" pair of Infinitys of this vintage especially since I never expected to ever see a pair, then rescue them, clean 'em up and enjoy the auditory delights!

Just got the woofers back with new surrounds for my Kappa 9's but the front emits are still down. I've jumped the breakers to no avail. I've tested them and they function properly. I'd sure like to have a listen to these. Anybody?

 

[chigger]

recheck wires and xover connections, could be bad solder joint

 

[Superampman]

Same thing with both speakers, though. I have not separated the circuit board from the main board so I only so far have access to the solder side. All looks good. Weird. Since it's happening on both speakers, it's gotta be something obvious.

 

[Superampman]

Yeah, same alright. Jumped the wrong spot on both. They're working now, though. First Infinity's I've owned. I'm impressed. My Acoustat TNT200 monos aren't heading for the hills either. Just this side of hot , though

 

[chigger]

usually something right in front of face and sometimes overthinking , enjoy them

I got these at Goodwill for $50, now I want to refoam them. Anyone here sell refoam kits for these speakers? I have been all over the internet reading everything I can about them, seems that the Emit-R tweeter, mids and woofer #s are all sequential and correct. I am not a very well informed audiophile so I would welcome any and all advice anyone is willing to share. I see refoam kit on Ebay for $28.00, good idea? Thanks Ben

I suggest you to start a new thread in the speakers or DIY forum so you'll get more answers. But from what I've read, the key when refoaming this kind of woofers is to use the right glue. It seems not every glue will adhere to that material. Ask to the specialists web sites, there are several on the web.

Regards!

I have a set of RS-5000's that I got brand new about 1986. They sound great in my living room. Not sure about the specs. I had the woofers re-coned about 15 yrs ago ,otherwise not a problem. I have a Kenwood KR 6030 that I would like to hook them up to eventually

Here is my IRS Series III set up in Bowling Green, KY. Stop by some time and have a listen.

WOW WOW Where did you get those and what drives them?
