The Infinitesimals Made It..

My RS-4000 cabs came to me without EMITS and woofers, the midranges needed new surrounds, did that, the woofers are 8" Pioneer CS.
 
4 ohms too Lee. You can use them in your truck on those long hauls!
 
Ah Brad, woulkdn't risk that, they're pretty cherry...
 
I was absolutely blown away when I heard some and had to have a pair. I figure they'll do for most of the time I'm in the mancave doin paperwork or amp building...
 
4 Ohms too Lee, you can get more power out of most amps with that lower impedance.
 
Very nice speakers, Lee. Well-regarded for their compact size but great sound.

Nando.
 
I think I gotta start paying more attention in the field. Those are not the Infinitesimal's I've seen. A big retailer I was with had some in the "surround demo" room and those did not like like this.

I've got room for small speakers, big ones - no.

Maybe they looked more like this ...

I owned a pair of these mighty little beasts for about 10 years and used them as rear surrounds and later, as regular book shelf speakers.
They sounded great for their size and I really didn't realize how great they were until I used them as mains. Looking back, I wish I had never
gotten rid of them.
 
There is quite a difference between those and the ones made between 78 to 80. I haven't heard the later ones but have been told they aren't neat as good ...
 
Those are probably the ones I remember because they reminded me of Minumus 7's.

As mentioned, where I was working, they were displayed in the surround room. Even though I was required to sell the stuff, I had zero interest in home theater so never paid any attention to speakers pitched to that task. When I had to demo anything in that room, my biggest concern was pushing the right buttons to make the receivers and processors work so I was never compelled to spend idle time in there auditioning speakers.
 
I suppose if one is a fan of those EMIT tweeters then the ear tells the story. They always seemed highly directional to me, lacking adequate dispersion. But perhaps on a bookshelf config, they do good. I never liked ribbon tweets or Maneplanars for the same reasoning.
 
Sweet..........loaner program? Heh...Heh

Like speaker of the month club.
