Jamo's new Reference R 909 Speakers are state-of-the-art electrodynamic dipolar speakers and high quality not only in terms of technological capabilities, but in design, as well. The speakers are floorstanding, weighing in at nearly 140-lbs each and measuring 50.2"h x 19.2"w x 21.3"d, and have two 15-in. woofers, a 5.5-in. Seas magnesium midrange driver and a customized 1-in. Scanspeak Revelator tweeter, all mounted in a thin baffle and intended to deliver optimum sound. The bass and midrange drivers use magnesium and paper cones to ensure dynamic, crystal-clear responses - so sounds will be as sharp and as powerful as if you were standing in front of the musicians. They are available in red, yellow and black. Price: $18,600.

I've never been a fan of the way Jamo's speakers sound, and I can't image that dual 15" drivers with hardly any cabinet would sound right at all. For dipole / bipole / omnipole systems I prefer Definitive Technology's Super Towers or maybe even their BP series.
