I love JBL sound.. currently have some LSR 305s..

I am very interested in the Dynaudio 160
is there a big difference between the 140 and 160?

@stevecham 
curious about these Wharfes
would these be an upgrade over JBL LSR 305s?
the 305 is fine 
tends to get a bit shouty when played loud
bass quality is not so good
timbre, depth and texture are more than you could ask for $300 dollars a pairs monitors

@mofojo 
yes, i saw those. rather damaged on the bottom of one speaker
do you think those are "better" than the Dentons?
especially for rawk?
classic-indie?
