Is The Overall Weight Of A Speaker Important?


.
The Magico Q7 weighs 750 lbs and costs $165K. What does added weight add to a speaker?

The JL Audio F213 subwoofer has two drivers and weighs 360 lbs. It costs $12k. It seems as the weight goes up, the price goes up.

Weight has little to do with it. My Tonians are a semi open baffle design and much like an instrument, absorb and dissipate the sound energy as quickly as an instrument. They excel at tone and timbre. They weigh (maybe) fifty pounds or so.

In the end, it's just one of many ways to skin a cat as I've heard some great speakers that I could hide behind in a gunfight.

All the best,
