Infinity RS 1B - How does the 'old dream speaker' compare to today's speakers?

Just saw again a photo of the 4 RS 1B towers, which 40+ years ago was my 'best speaker in the world' (yet never heard one). 

I know there a quite a few owners still out there, and would assume they had a chance to compare them side by side to modern "Audiophile" (say $10k or more if needed) speakers. 

How do they compare? 

Or maybe links to source material where that question is discussed?

I have only heard the irs reference speakers modded by ps audio at the ps audio factory.

Their listening room was on the small side for these speakers. If you have a large listening room, they could keep up with today’s flagship speakers or beat many of them.

Paul McGowan’s new Aspen FR30 ain’t beating that infinity, no matter what his sales pitch is.
