Infinity IRS III Speakers System including servo controller. They work perfectly. This is the most highly regarded of the IRS series I-V. Only 15 were produced.
I've waited 6 yrs for this beast to appear on my email alert from an online audio ad seller...NOT that I could ever afford them, just to see and drool over them.

In case this lessens your self-torture, Green, let me tell you that I heard these (in one or more of their iterations) many times at shows and sometimes at dealers' showrooms. I also had their little brothers, the RS-1bs, at my home for a week while trying to decide whether to buy them (I didn't). In my estimation, many electrostats surpassed their performance between 50 and 15000 Hz (for me, requisite for magic). They certainly played low, and they were particularly free of dynamic compression. But I found much of the same in the Snell A 3i which exhibited far less soprano-voice distortion. I think you should be glad to have admired from afar especially given their, in my view, overprice.

  I remember someone who heard one of these speaker systems (it may not have been the "III" version... ), told me they "sound like $90,000 Infinities"........

    Well if they go loud enough I will take a couple of pairs for the garage.

I knew someone who almost got this speaker system...... But a big unexpected tax bill axed the plan................
Oh no! My wife saw these speakers and now she wants to buy them. But I think they're too big . - JoshT 21:12:14 08/27/20 (0)

I think PS Audio owns a pair of these they use for critical listening tests of their designs.
