You're right. Those EMITs are smooth and detailed. I have quite a few pr. of Infinity's with those in them.
Cheese wiz..LOL
I believe it's caulk.
Beginner caulking skills maybe. I'm glad my first experience with caulking was under the supervision of a PRO painter with tons of experience. Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -

Nice, although I guess he doesn't know the difference between an amp and a pre-amp

I'd say he was just a little high on price for a unit that has not gone through yet.

No but they are well regarded Sony speakers. At least one person here had them and raved about them.
They had stands as well I do believe.
Old post but just wanted to add that yes these were designed by ex polk engineer Dan Anagnos. I still have my ES SS M7's and have kept them longer than anything. It's rare for any of these to show up used now but if they do in good condition for a decent price someone should snag them. https://www.stereophile.com/floorloudspeakers/996esss/index.html -

That's about how I have said I would build my own version of Monitor 7's, except I would also, as difficult as it might be, round over the front edge of the cabinet, especially at the top where the tweeter is. I almost have all the spare parts to build it.George / NJ

Are these worth the price? https://evansville.craigslist.org/ele/d/tyro-infinity-rs4-speakers/7108961644.html

Yes. I can’t see the crack he’s referring to. Look pretty minty. Not sure how difficult/involved crossover rebuild would be. I had some RSIIIb that had multiple crossovers but RSIIIa’s were straightforward iirc. Given what’s going on, I would think you could even negotiate with cash in hand
-
The left speaker's mid-range is cracked around the bottom screw, far away from the driver. Still looks attached, I'd think it's probably only cosmetic.
He managed to take a picture of the wrong speaker, I think. If you open up the full picture you can see it. I'd call $275 a good deal, even if you have to do a bit of resealing work. -
I had the smaller version of these before. Hooked up to a NAD preamp and a TT. It was a spellbinding sound I have been chasing ever since. Good luck.

edit: I forgot to ask my question. So do these have drivers/tweeters all around in every direction? -
Reminds me of Bose.

Those should sound really nice when in good working order. I have a pair of RS5, which look almost identical. I think the RS4 have slightly bigger woofers, and a deeper cabinet.BinKY188_5 wrote: »

I actually did a search for "speaker stands" and that showed up. I need a second set of stands for the future, so I'm always keeping an eye out. I have "include nearby areas" checked in the CL settings, even though that isn't exactly nearby. I did however make a drive to Nashville a couple years back for some speakers.So Hermit, why are you looking at Nashville CL? I noticed those speakers myself, but they are located down in North AL. -
