Is anyone on this forum LUCKY enough to have owned both of these prestigious speakers? If so, which do you prefer? Little brother JR149 or bigger brother JR150? My uncle kindly donated his JR150 to me before Christmas and I have been enjoying their delights ever since. I absolutely love everything about them, their accurate sound, tasteful styling, and nostalgic heritage. I am tempted to add the JR149 to my collection and so was wondering if the JR149 have anything to offer over the JR150, or have I been already spoiled with the 150?

Some literature:
http://www.jr149.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk I had been using IMF CM3 in my monitoring setup and it was a hard decision but the JR150 finally took their place. Very precise and accurate sound. Least "boxy" sound I've heard from a speaker system thanks to their cylindrical shape and aluminium build. I love 'em. -------------------- ........................................
