Infinity RS1B
this is a quote i found on another forum.   just to explain better how the speaker works     First of all, You are right that the RS1b is a point source. That's the whole idea with its design!Secondly, You are NOT only listening to just 1 driver. ... 
Infinity RS1B
the speaker is designed to work that way.   wouldn't you think if all  emim's were at the same level it would be too much.   the top two and #4 play together and the bottom 3 play the same freq's.  #3 is at ear level when seated.  i have a pair.. ... 
Dynaco ST-70 and Magneplanar 1.6QR
agree with some of the post here on needing a ss amp with power.  if you want a warm sounding amp that would sound very good for the money you can not beat B&K amps.   a st140 is a good start but a st 202 and up would be better.  the amps are ...

a b&k 442 amp in disguise??
well I guess from a picture I see of the top of the amp I see the two can layout of a 202.  so i guess i have a 202.  i cannot imagine they diden't have a 202 faceplate and just stuck on a 442 one. i guy said thats how he received it new from b&k 
a b&k 442 amp in disguise??

Harman/Kardon Receiver
i have a 430.   it sounds good because they knew how to make a good receiver back then.   and more power from the 730 proves more power dosent mean better sound.  last i saw, the 430's were going for $200 and up on the bay.
