I hear those Advent speakers all the time, but cannot remember the model 
number.  I once looked for them on the web with no luck.  I buy mine from 
QRS, and they are heavy and wedge shaped, and expensive!  I have heard the 
larger Yamaha speaker, and I own one.  Although it sounds great, it is ugly, 
but very rugged.  The smaller Yamaha speakers, and again I don't know the 
model numbers, sound all right to me, but everyone I know says the Advent 
sounds better.  I have never heard the newer Yamaha speakers.

I must also confess that I am not an audio person.  I seldom use my 
speaker(s) with my DKV as I like the sound of just the piano.  Most of my 
clients who own DKV upright models also seldom use speakers.  Personally, I 
don't think you can go wrong with anything Yamaha makes or those Advent 
speakers.  I would just buy one and see how you like it.
