They look substantial and weigh over 53 lbs. each. I assume they are rear-ported and they have enough cabinet volume to get down to the (ported) 30Hz. I'm a little old fashioned when it comes to tweeters made of metal (unless they are ribbons.) I'd find them in a store and have a listen but I would be sure to have all the other speakers they're likely to have them connected with off. (Figuring out how to do that on a multichannel receiver might take a while.) Yamaha equipment tends to be well made and they are the only 'mid-line' maker that still rates their amps at 20 to 20 rather than test tone at 1K. I haven't seen any Yamaha speakers in a Best Buy for a while, which is a good sign since all the stuff BB <and Circuit City> sell is made specifically for them. P -- pski real stereo doesn't just wake the neighbors, it -enrages- them..
