Infinity RS4

I have a chance to get a set of these that need refoamed for 200 bucks, I’m mostly wondering about sound quality and are these worth saving, they look to be in oak enclosures.

All old Infinity plays music so you feel happy, so go for it 👍

Indeed! Their mobile audio pairings were so good that near the end of my making speakers for others I quit using separates for folks wanting 'Champaign on a beer budget'.

If they're the older RS4s with the EMIT tweeter and dual woofers, the cabs alone would be worth it.

Here is a picture

My comment on that photo is that the EMIT looks much more wrinkled than the minor wrinkles sometimes seen on these. In fact it looks like some aluminum foil has been put there to make it look ok, but hopefully it's just a reflection or something and all is ok.

Yes I seen that too, and I know those emits are hard to get.

Still, if the cabs are nice, might be worth it, depending on your situation.

In that case Bob sell new replacement diaphragms, and also have a video how to do it.
