How do the Merlin TSM compare to other speakers


I have read many great reviews of the TSM-MM/MX but have not seen much discussion as how they rate against other top class monitors or small floor standing speakers.

Thinking of speakers such as the micro utopia be, audio physic tempo, Sonus Faber Cremona Auditor, Dynaudio Special 25 etc.

George,

Thanks for the comparison. Did you compare the Guarneri and the Merlin's in the same system at the same time using the same music ?
.
What differences did you hear ?

Thanks for your response. I was not clear from what you said if you listened to the Merlin's vs the Guarneri on exactly the same equipment set up for each at the same time. Please clarify.
.
Please do let us know about the comparison of the Merlin's vs the B & W 805's.
.
Thanks,

Do the new TSM have over 200 hours of normal listening volume on them yet ? If not, just wait till you hear them with 200, 300 or more and you will be more suprised.
.
Also consider saving a bit more and getting the MX version with BAM. Do that and you will be set speakwerwise for the rest of your audiolife (unless Bobby comes up with something radically better....probably will).
