Infinity Primus P362

The Infinity Primus P362 (supercedes the P360) is a 3-way floor-standing speaker at the top of Infinity's Primus line of speakers. The Primus line is given a "value" or "step-up" designation by Infinity in terms of cost. Above Primus is the Classia and Cascade series and below are the Total Solutions series of speakers. The Infinity Primus P360 has been updated and now is referred to as the Infinity Primus P362, with only minor cosmetic changes over the 360 version. They currently retail for $250 per speaker (they are sold individually), with a pair costing $500.
