    They have three adjustability options: tweeter, midrange, bass. The Xtremes have far more, especially with the sub towers.

    Room size for 101e mk2’s? 12/13 x 14 minimum. 15 x 20 or bigger is ideal.

    If my Vandersteen 7 Mk2’s didn’t work so darn well in my listening room, I would be all over the MBL 101E Mk2’s. Mike (Ritmo), you’re a lucky guy!

    My room is 15 X 20 X 10.5. The 101s sound delicious in my room.

    Does this system have any kind of power conditioning? If so, what kind of wiring/cabling is used between the power conditioner and the outlets in the wall?
