For example these Peavey PA speakers look nice, Big, etc, etc, BUT in reality they weigh nothing!!!makes you wonder of the quality....
Try doing this with some JBL/Mackie, FBT, Yorkvilles

For Light Weight PA....I have this:
http://www.zzounds.com/item--ELVZX190

I first got 2, I like them so much, only 18 lbs each, that I got a second pair...

For powered mixer I use: http://www.yamaha.com/yamahavgn/CDA/ContentDetail/ModelSeriesDetailPF/0,,CNTID%25253D38160%252526CTID%25253D227800,00.html

Only 22 lbs.... Incredible sound for a light weight and no compromising sound quality. ;o)

I have used these this past summer. They are very light and sound great. I think I posted something about them previously.

Thanx Tom....for your input.
hows the G70 coming along?

I guess the light weight, perceived low quality that been going on here with the S900 & these speakers, etc, & anything plastic & lightweight makes people wonder & arugue....I'm not saying its true, but its a perception that wont go away!

So.... once you get used to a G70, even 88 lbs of speakers (2X44?) doesn't seem much...

That's what? Nearly FOUR PSRs?!

Nice highbeams, by the way, Fran...! I guess gear lust is a real phenomenon...

(chas... you are a FUNNY man )
