Could someone explain what the differences are between "old style" LSi's and "new style" LSi's? I've read a few threads where people make comments about old vs. new. Thanks!

    The tops of the cabinets are slighty different as is the color of the wood side panels. As far as I know everything else is the same.

    I must have the older style then. I had damaged the speaker base on my left LSi25 and ordered a new one. The current base is a dull black veneer. The new one that I just received is a piano black lacquer...looks awesome btw!

    Anyone have any pics of a new style cabinet?

    There are product images and catalogs in the Press section of the website, I guess, if that's what you are looking for.
