Are Merlins too much?


I have a smallish room, but I hope I'm not stuck in here forever. The room is about 10 x 12, or maybe 10 x 14 at the most. My system is a Nakamichi OMS 7A II, Audio Institute integrated tube pre-amp and Canton speakers. The interconnect is Purist Opis and the speaker cable is the Paul Speltz junk. I would not use it with the new speakers.

Are the Merlin VSM-Mx speakers too much for my system or my room? Will they over power the room or will they be too revealing of my less than great Nakamichi and/or Audio Institute?

Uppermidfi,

Do you actually mean the TSM-MX (the "bookshelf" speaker) or the floorstanding VSM-MX?
Regardless, talk to the designer himself and he will help you out.
As the TSM with stands will take up about the same space requirements as the VSM, let that not be part of your consideration.
