One of the very best book shelf speakers I ever heard is the Infinity RS-1 speakers, from 1996 or 1997, I have a pair I bought from a yard sale back in 2012, I remembered they got Editors Budget Best choice for the year in stereophile magazine way back then, so I bought them, confirmed the review and award from stereophile and fired them up, they have a tiny woofer, 4 1/2 inches, two way speaker, these speakers are incredibly heavy and well built, solid as a rock, the sound?, I was in awe, they have an extemly timberal sound with great clarity and detail, the bass is very impressive for such a small woofer to say the least, I will never sale these!, what a deal, $20.00 !!!, all that I have said may sound dis-believable, Really, These speakers are that good, of course this was before infinity went down market!
Inexpensive pair of bookshelf speakers.
I'm looking for a pair of HiFi but inexpensive bookshelf pair of speakers in the $400.00 - $600.00 range for my second listening room. Don't mind buying used. Keepers for life to be paired with Cronus Magnum in an all analog set-up. I only listen to LPs:
Music preference:
Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, Dire Straits, Steely Dan, Billy Joel, Supertramp, Alan Parsons, James Taylor, Eric Clapton, Eagles, Norah Jones, Diana Krall, Bob James, Chuck Mangione, Stan Getz, Herb Albert, Sergio Mendes, etc.
Small listening room (12x10), with excellent acoustic treatment. I've heard great things about the Totem Dreamcatchers at the asking price range but don't know if they are a good match for the type of music I enjoy listening.
Your input will be greatly appreciated.
