    I've heard from CP member Spacedeckman (Yami Rep) that some of the higher end Yamaha speakers are pretty respectable. I just don't know of any place to listen to them.

    Maybe he'll chime in.

    They are pretty lightweight for a tower speaker. If my converter was right they only weigh a little over 29lbs.

    The LSI 9's weigh in @ 33lbs, & the 15's weigh in at 66lbs.
    The RTI 8's are around 50lbs

    Heck my old RTA-8's weigh in at 39lbs.

    I guess the converter I used got it wrong. Why can't they use both metrics & pounds?

    Actually maybe not. I just went by what the link page said:Weight 13.5 kg (ea.)
