Hard to trust a company that can't get specs straight. Love those Vifa drivers though.

The PSB Alpha T20 tower is 12kg each, so 9 kg might be accurate.

I have Angstrom's Modular Six Center channel, a pair of Omega II 200 bookshelves, and a pair of Suono 100SD multi-polar surrounds. $300 used, a good deal considering the original owner paid $2100. The Suonos are highly colored, but they're fine for surround duties. The other speakers hold their own against the M5HP at low volumes, albeit with a slightly lifted treble. They go into compression early, so they won't play loud.

I still have a review written by Gordon Brockhouse of various $1500 towers (2005 dollars) comparing the Energy Reference Connoisseur RC-50, Infinity Beta 50, Paradigm Reference Studio 60 v.3, and PSB Image T65. He threw in the Angstrom Modular Two bookshelves with Modular TENi subwoofer as a foil. The sub-sat system won, particularly in treble and midrange neutrality. So Angstrom was capable of fielding competitive products at the time.
