Stingray bad for Merlin TSM's or Revel M22's???

Manley Labs reccomends Merlin speakers for use with their equipment.Check out the following quote from the Manley Labs webite.

Merlin Music: Bobby Palkovic is one of the nicest guys in audio and his speakers are wonderful too. The STINGRAY is a particular good amp for his VSM's and TSM's, as are the MAHI's with a SHRIMP...

I do not believe it about the soundstage. When I owned a Stingray it was a very good amp with nice tone and very robust too.

The Stingray is an excellent choice for the Merlins. Seems you are building a good system with that pairing. I think you can proceed with confidance.

I also have heard the Stingray in both my system and my friends system on full range single driver speakers. If it was a weak amp that certainly would have been revealed on those speakers. Great tone and nice punch for a relatively low watt tube amp.

5 years ago a listened one stingray with my merlins tsm, It did not impresioned me. The jeff rowland I was using (integrate concerta ?) was better, and I prefer tubes amlpifiers, after the JR I tryed audiopax 88 mono( SET 30watts) and the result was fantastic, after I bougth one audio aero PP 50watts calsse A and the sound also was fantastic. I know the price of audio aero and audiopax is 4 to 5x times the stingray but this is my opnion about stingray and merlint TSM.
