I agree. Having heard the 101s numerous times, you really do get a big helping of that MBL sound from the monitors. I know some who own both the big models and the 121s agree.
Funny enough, I never felt the same about the floorstanding MBL 111s, the full range model only using the tweeter/mid. When I heard them, they seemed to have a slightly different tonality, which I didn't care for.I was happy when I got my 121s to hear they did sound more like the midrange of the 101s.
I actually nabbed mine from an audiogon sale, a pair that got slightly damaged in shipping to a customer - e.g. a grill that I'd never use anyway. It was at a price that I'd never see again for MBLs so I'm glad I grabbed them. I switch between various speakers I own, but I still have no intention of selling the MBLs as their sound is unique.
smetzger, what do you like about the sound of your new MBLs?
