Value:
4 stars (4 out of 5)

The Infinity Primus P363 is a 3-way floorstanding speaker featuring dual 6.5” MMD woofers, a dedicated 4” MMD midrange and a ¾” MMD dome tweeter. Infinity seems to have taken a well-balanced approach in designing the Primus P363 speaker system. Sure I had some nits to pick, but the fact that these speakers were able to hit high SPL levels in my nearly 6,000 ft3 room without bottoming out or sounding completely shrill was truly amazing. The P363’s produced great high frequency detail, fluidic midrange and punchy bass response. They sounded very consistent when I moved my head side to side thanks to good driver integration and attention to off-axis performance. At the retail price of $758/pair, there are certainly other options to consider. But, realizing the P363’s can usually be had for $400/pr on sale (sometimes even cheaper), they are truly a remarkable value. What they lack in aesthetics, they make up for in sound quality and value. Recommended!
