Yeah, 8-1/3 ft high speakers do make a young child look downright tiny in comparison.

Without the HF horn they are only 80" tall.
I stacked the pair in my garage one time (horizontal placement), by myself. While big, they aren't all that heavy.
The older ones sure are heavy. Mine is one of the very early models. Had 4 big guys on it once none smiled.
I skidded them, lifted up one end on top of the bottom one, moved to the end on the ground, picked it up, and then slid it on top of the first one.Of course this was more than 30 years ago, and I am 6'3" and was quite strong back then.
I also had a set of Ubangi, and built these double 12 mids (same size mouth as the Ubangi) to fit on top of the Olson bins.
In the end it was all too big to move on a regular basis, and I did a permanent club install and designed my PPSL systems.
(may be moved by one person)

Arg! Thanks for catching it. 'Haste makes waste'; I glanced at the wrong set of dims. To think I once rattled off all this stuff from memory and now apparently can't even notice if what I read is correct. :^(
Interesting! I never had to move any and don't recall ever being all that close to some either, just my 210 Altecs that were [for us anyway] before I cut the back boxes off them, though once the compression chamber was mounted, horn heavily braced I think they wound up about as heavy.
