As if I didn't already have zero respect for that rag.CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

I am surprised they reviewed these speakers. They usually only review speakers that are $20K and up.

Those look like something my TL's ate for brunch yesterday.>

"The Primus 150 has achieved a standard of performance at the $200-or-under price point that I didn't think was possible."
Interesting review. Thanks Danny. -
Pick up an R15 from Fry's instead (when they go on sale again). Speaking of sales did anyone happen to notice the sale on all Polk speakers at Crutchfield?Audio: Polk S15 * Polk S35 * Polk S10 * SVS SB-1000 Pro
HT: Samsung QN90B * Marantz NR1510 * Panasonic DMP-BDT220 * Roku Ultra LT * APC H10 -
I almost ordered a set for the hell of it, but they are not $30 a pair.
From the specifications page:
Priced as: EACH
And the rebate says limit 1, so it looks like $90 a pair. I'll pass. -
No fan of Infinity but for $90 a pair those Primus 150's are a hell of a deal. I remember Stereophile reviewed them very favorably, considering their MSRP is $200/pair.
I've also listened to them extensively. State of the art? Hell no. But a significant improvement over their older entry-level "Entra" series, and I would still have them over the Polk R15, M10, or Monitor30.
