INFINITY PRIMUS: CAPTIVATING FIDELITY, COMPELLING VALUE.

Begin by listening.You’ll encounter a level

of realism and subtlety beyond what you’ve

known – even in the music and movies

you know by heart.

Then look.You’ll be struck by the simplicity

of a purely functional design that’s

also a pleasure to the eye.

Next, factor in the distinguished heritage

of these loudspeakers, as well as the

extraordinary value they represent.

Only then will you fully appreciate what

Infinity’s engineers have accomplished –

an ideal synthesis of technology,

performance and design destined to

transform your home entertainment

experience – with Infinity Primus.

A HERITAGE OF EXCELLENCE.

The road to Primus stretches

back almost 40 years – a road

lined with dozens of audio

milestones.

With innovative technologies,

materials and manufacturing

techniques, Infinity®has advanced

the science of sound year

after year.

Primus Series speakers benefit

from every Infinity innovation that

has ever come before.They also

embody everything we’ve learned

about making captivating sound

affordable.

Infinity’s flagship system,the Cascade Series.

TECHNOLOGY,PERFORMANCE,DESIGN.

For nearly 40 years,Infinity has

set new standards for performance,

simplicity and style. Now, Infinity’s

unchallenged leadership in

loudspeaker design extends from

our critically acclaimed Infinity

Cascade™Series to the stylish

new Primus loudspeakers,inspired

by the award-winning Cascade.

The MMD tweeter and waveguide deliver wider,more even high-frequency response.

THE MMD®DIFFERENCE.

Unlike the paper, polypropylene or

Kevlar®cones found in similarly

priced speakers, MMD®cones

consist of a stiff aluminum core,

anodized on both sides for

increased strength and rigidity.

The result is extremely fast,

extremely accurate transducers,

producing a distinctly cleaner,

more realistic sound.

MUSIC, MOVIES …OR BOTH?

From unobtrusive bookshelf

music systems to dazzlingly

powerful home theaters, there’s

a Primus system that’s right for

every purpose and room in your

home. Infinity also offers three

powered subwoofers to perfectly

complement your Primus speakers.

A recommended addition to any

system, these three subs allow

you to duplicate the cinematic

experience at home.

Add the PS28,PS210 or PS212 powered subwoofer for incredible music and home theater excitement.
