In Reply to: How did they compare to the Primus 150's? I .... posted by PureAudio on March 29, 2007 at 15:38:12:
I agree, earlier 2., 3. and 4. Atoms were interesting speakers but were outclassed by the dynamics, speed and weight of the Infinity Primus 150. That said, I always felt the 150s had a little bit of a presence boost that sometimes made them feel a little cold. Also the tweeter never sounded airy or extended to me. The Infinity Primus 150s imaging wasn't as strong as some mini-monitors.The new Atoms tonally are slightly warmer than the 150s, and definitly cleaner and more extended in the highs. They are very detailed, but don't push it at you. I hear the boundaries of the recorded rooms better and layering between players -- in this way their imaging is amazing, and outclasses the Primus 150s. They have also gained a great deal in the dynamics department. They don't reach down as low as the 150s, since they are a smaller box with a smaller woofer, but what they produce is tight and very tuneful. A quick subwoofer works well from about 75 hz on down.
