Hi Ian,

A few weeks ago someone raised a question about some of the listed weights of your speakers seemking a little light.

For example, the QS8 weighs ten pounds less than the Paradigm ADP-370. The QS8 is admittedly six inches shorter than the 370, but that should not account for such a large difference in weight.

You said you would have all of your speakers re-weighed and the correct weights posted.

Have you had time to do that yet?

The QS8s are 10.6 lbs each. There are 4 heavy-duty motor structures in that little box so for its size I would rate it as a pretty heavy speaker.
