That's exactly my question. They cost the same as GMA Europas and are Merlin TSMs significantly better for a little more money?
Anyone heard the Audio Note AX2 signature?
I am looking for a mini-monitor, width dimension not to exceed 9", to place close to the wall, one in a corner, in a small office set-up, with high-end resolution and mid-range warmth at low volumes the criteria, to be driven by either a Bel Canto SEi40 or Jadis OR (40 WPC). I am considering Joseph, Silverline, Tyler and Merlin TSM and the Audio Note. While there is lots written about the first 4, I cant find any reviews on the Audio Note, so opinions are sought, please.
