Summary: 

First, the good news: Celestion, unlike some other British speaker
manufacturers, has noted the strength of the dollar. The price for the
SL-600 has fallen to $1200/pr, and the SL-6 to $700/pr.

I've listened to some M&K three-way systems. They didn't seem to have much
more bass, and weren't as clear as, the SL-600's. I thought about
three-ways for a while, and decided that, unless I found one that was every
bit as clear & sharp as the SL-600, I'd stick with two-ways.  I can always
add a subwoofer later.

As for the JSE-1's, I can't find a pair to listen to in the SF area.
Anybody out there in the area mind loaning me there listening room?  Better
yet, do you feel like shipping me your pair for a week, Bill :-)?
