Palladium tested by Stereophile??

Wes Phillips' review of the Boulder 865 integrated amplifier in the April issue of Stereophile includes this intriguing sentence:

Eventually, new speakers occupied my large listening room---Klipsches with a sensitivity of 95 dB that I will be reviewing in due course.

Unfortunately, that rules out the P-39F which has a rated sensitivity of 99 dB @ 2.83V/1m. The closest Palladium with the 95 dB sensitivity is the P-37F rated at 96 dB.

Other Klipsch models which have the closest sensitivity are the RF-52 & VF-35 @ 96 dB each and the F-2 @ 95.5 dB.

Cut and pasted from the Meijas blogon S'phile: "At first, the amp does not want to budge. It's as if the *** thing is glued to the floor. But, finally, we manage. We've got the amp up and we are walking, slowly, towards the Land Cruiser. We are cursing now, calling the amp all sorts of mean names, telling the amp it should have never been born. We are breathing heavy. Our arms are trembling. It's not so bad. "It's much easier than lifting the Klipsch [Palladium P-39F loudspeaker (review to come)]."

Not sure how much the Palladiums weigh, but I wonder how they'd do moving a pair of Jubes?

I managed to take a good amount of paint off the back bumper of my Envoy unloading mine. Fortunately, the Jubes came out without a mark on them. [;)]
