Who stay with Merlin longest time


Hi all,
Just wonder, Merlin ex- and current owners - Who set the record of oldest marriage with Merlin? :)
My second anniversary in Sept, yet I already sent them in for a face lift (master BAM/RC) :-)
My system's evolving around Merlins - costly but fun
Happy listening

Tubegroover,

Long time no talk!

I am upgading my BAM next week with the cardas Clear geometry cable upgrade. Turn it around is a week or so. After BAM returns and has 150-200 hours on it, I'll add those impressions and post my review.

Teaser....... your gonna like'em, a lot :-)
thuan, we have just started rewiring our earlier speakers and bams with cardas clear geometry cable. this is the very same wire i use in the master version of my products.
check the main page of www.merlinmusic.com for information. the internal wiring, the jumpers and rc's would all changed.

Hi Bobby, I had my superbam upgraded to the masterbam a while back (last year), was the cardas clear geometry stuff used at that time?
mickey, no it was not, sorry. we just got a hold of it and one of the very first master bams with it used internally was at the rmaf. currently less than a half dozen in existance. link to a comment by one of the owners near the top of the main page of my site.
it is a taped cardas clear geometry cable designed for high impedance circuits like the mbam.
imho, inexpensive and fabulous.

I bought a pair of VSM-SE speakers from Bobby in Dec '99. He later upgraded them to MM version - huge leap in performance. I think one of the things about the VSM is they don't look like they should be able to do what they actually do. People see a tweeter and a 6.5" woofer and think they know what it is - but they don't have a clue if they've never heard them. If you hear these speakers, with the right gear, you realize what you think you knew didn't mean squat because your experience is based on something else unlike them.

I never thought I'd see the day when Bobby is using an integrated amp and a Mac computer running iTunes for front end. My head has been in the sand for too long.

If that doesn't say "don't assume you know, go listen" I don't know what does.
