Rrog,a little reading comprehension might help you. I havent decided to make an example of anyone. My involvement here is merely being curious, like the OP, as to why there is such a discrepancy by a noted manufacturer as to what they claim and what the real deal is. Weight is not subjective,it is easily verified. If it is a misprint, I think they should correct it,thats all. Just looking for factual reporting.How does your significant other feel when you're claiming 7 inches and only delivering 4 ?
Odd Revel Performa M20 Question ?
Received today a pair of Revel M20. One of the intriguing aspects of these speakers was that each speaker (according to specifications) weighed 45 lbs, or 20.4 kg. Unusually heavy for speakers of this size. Specs for packaged shipping weight is 48 lbs., each.
When I received the FedEx tracking info over the weekend, the packaged weight for both speakers was listed at 74.7 lbs. Speakers were sent in two separate boxes....original boxes and original packing materials.... one weighing 37.8 lbs. the other 36.9 lbs.
This caught my attention and I thought maybe a misread from the shipping origin. On receiving the speakers today at FedEx, I put one box on the scale and it read 37.8 lbs. Got home, removed the speakers from boxes and weighed again on a bathroom scale. One speaker weighed ~ 36 lbs, without grilles and without feet.
Hooked up the speakers and they sound good. I'll need some time before deciding if I like them.
So my question, hopefully to those actually owning the Performa M20, what do your speakers weigh? Hard to imagine that a manufacturer's specification could miss by nearly 10 lbs.
