Ars Sonum / Merlin TSM-MX???

Edcook,
Thank you for for your response. More and more, I'm leaning towards the Ars Sonum choice. I'm pretty sures they're special, otherwise, Bobby would not be importing them. I was also concerned about their moderate 30 watts, but was assured they would have no problem driving my TSM-MX.
Bass hasn't been an issue for me, since I mostly listen to jazz.
How long is the wait, once you placed the order?
Thank you.

Toudou,

Before I demoed the ARS Sonum Filarmonia, I certainly shared your concern on the 30 watts, however IMO, it's plenty IMO. I was just watching a DVD movie (Mr & Mrs. Smith) with the ARS Sonum Filarmonia and I was pretty blown away how well it did, and we had it very loud. Sounded simply awesome.

Toudou,

You really need to check with Bobby on the waiting period. Length of time is still being confirmed.

Thank you for everything, Ed.

Interesting thread as I have ordered some Merlin TSM-MX speakers and have been considering either Joule, CAT, Dehavilland or Audiopax amps. However, I had also seen mention of this ARS sonum amp - sounds interesting. Have any of you auditioned other amps?? I think it is either the Audiopax or Joule for me now.
