When you listen at home, some people desire to listen to music as engineered, or intended it to be heard. By it's nature, "Reference" now used as a marketing term to imply the above definition. As a counter example, some speakers have more bass bias or have louder highs in their default configuration (think cheap systems) - so the term "reference" can mean something to potential buyers. As music tastes are subjective, whether this appeals to you or not is up to you.
I will say, that to my ears, these speakers are well balanced and flat and are pleasing to me. Just know they're not in the same price league as recording studio reference speakers or really high end home audio.

I think they are counting the tweeter waveguide as a 1/2 driver which is odd.
marginally better than the plethora of klipsch advertisements posted by SD editors on this site. however, after listening to several recent Infinity models they are all a bit nasal (thin) in their reproduction.

The marketing seems to indicate they are counting the waveguide, on the tweeter. If so, that's some silly marketing.

I am thinking of getting two of these for left/right and virtual center. I wonder how well they would work. I would maybe add a sub.
I have two 5.4 atmos setups in my summer home. But don't have the layout for this in my winter home and therefore thinking of giving these a try to be at least better than the 77 lg oled speakers.
edit: never mind these are too large for mu available space. I have 18w 7.5h 13d available.
My 5 year old has a 7.1.4 setup in his bedroom. The OLED has slight burn in from PS5.
So for the 3 year old I decided on a setting up a basic 5.1 so I don't have to get ceiling work done. But she gets an 85" 8k tv to make up for it.
Edit. Guess room isn't really my problem, just extra work.
I can't say I've noticed that the Infinity speakers are markedly better than what I had, but I haven't had time to really push the limits of these to examine them critically. They're connected to a Denon x3600h and have been Audyssey XT32 calibrated, so I think overall it's a decent low to mid-level entry system.
This will be for a 2.1 entertainment system in a small room. Whats the best quality for the price? Or, what's simply the best?
