RE: New JMR Line?

Though I haven't heard the Jubilee, I do own Abscissa's and once owned Cantabile Supreme's. It's difficult to talk in absolutes but in this case I can say that the Cantabile's were inferior by nearly any objective measure. While Jean Marie continued to refine his Offrande's and Bliss's it seems Jean Claude was determined to make a mark of his own with the Abscissa's. They sound more complete, if lacking some of the romanticism, than Offrande's and faster than Orfeo's. As it is I think the standard Abscissa is on par with the Offrande, the Jubilee may potentially surpass it, depending on your priorities of course. Bob may be the only one in the country that can expand on that for now. It's a crime these speakers don't receive more press in the U.S.
