msr-16 is "one buttons-row" higher and maybe somewhat deeper (?), I assume it's a bit heavier to...
here's (attached) photo of both suspects from "investigative report"

Any idea why the MSR weighs so much more?

Mmmm,... like...

twice as many channel cards & beefier power supply,... comes to mind.
... and a little more mass to the overall chassis.
