I currently have the MBL 116 at home reviewing them as a possible replacement for my JM Lab Mezzo Utopia
My system is Musical Fidelity Tri Vista CD and Pass Labs Alph P and 4 power amp. Room size is 20ft x 12ft
In my opinion they are a great speaker, if a little expensive in the UK (£11500 or $22000 at todays exchange rate). However, I do not prefer them to the JM Labs. Overall the JM Labs have a bolder, bigger sound with better bass and a more natural sound with guitar strings and vocals.
The MBL's are low efficiency and have to be driven loud to give their best, something I cannot do all the time in my house.
