I hope this is the beginning of a line of speakers that build from this release. M&K's IP was bought out by a Danish company and is now being headed-up by one of M&K's former engineers. What, if any role Ken Kreisel or his sidekick the Magna-Cum-Engineer Barry Ober has in this iteration of M&K seems to be unknown.
It will be interesting to see[hear] if they can deliver on the performance of M&K's past or if they'll be content to ride the name alone. Other than the tripole design, these speakers look more like a miniaturized, value-engineered versions of the former great speakers of M&K.
Just looking at the new M-Series vs the 750s, I can't say I'm impressed, much less vs the 150s... but of course it'll take an actual listen to form an opinion. Currently though, color me skeptical.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever-so-slightly thinner than the iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals (and competitors, for that matter) would confess is the market leader today.

Man, I love my MKs so I hope they last.... but they have lasted a long time so I really don' t need any new ones!
