Best light weight full range speaker recommendation.

I love to experiment with sound and so far has been mostly constrained to book shelves, (Persona B, Formation Duo) or low sitting speakers (Heresy IV) all of which require separate subs (maybe not the formation). Now for full range speakers, it seems like the new Beolab 28 is really the most lightweight one out there. Kinda wonder what other options are there, or rather do any of you mount speakers on wheels?

+1 Gershman Grand Avant Garde

One of the main reasons why I bought it was due to its light weight. It may not be a good fit for a large room, but for medium room size, it will fill the room with very tight and firm base, large sound stage, and very good imaging. You will need at least a 100WPC high quality power amp drive it.

re Gershman Grand Avant Garde

I seriously could not come up with anything to make that speaker uglier, aesthetically speaking

My wife likes its appearance much better than plain looking rectangular speakers. My daughter is very artistic (an art major) and she prefers ists looking to other speakers I had:  Harbeths, Tyler, B&W, Apogee, ...

So for me, Avant Garde wins big on its athestics. ;-)
