need help with Merlin vsm mme for home theater

Bobby,
I understand what you mean, that they should have the same voicing or timbre.
I recently purchased a 5.1 speaker set wich I need to sell before I accumulate a collection of speakers around the house, as soon as I set up the vsm I'll be looking to buy the vsm center and then the tsm, so I will call in a couple of weeks and order the vsm center for sure if thats the way to do it?
I'm sure I'll have future questions and I thank you for making yourself available to help out understanding the Merlin system.
Thank you Bobby

t, you actually would/may be able to use the tsm center with the rears and be right where you want to be.
less expensive and same family sound.
ok?
best,
bobby p

I just picked up my new Ruby Red VSM Masters with the Master BAM a couple of hours ago....I must say no one in my 40 years of hi fi experience goes to the lengths Bobby does to make sure you understand his speakers and how to get the most out of them....He is a one of a kind and we are the better for it...I have a hybrid system.... laptop/Wyred4Sound dac...and a 5.1 surround 3D Oppo setup using an Anthem MXR700....I am running the BAM in the dac loop for the moment until I can find out from Anthem if there is a dedicated tape in/record out section on their back panel...Yes I know they sound better on the big ARS as I've heard that combo a number of times at Bobby's but I have to whack a couple of birds at one time with my current setup...I also use a shielded center TSM that Bobby made for me...Thanks for your patience and kindness Bobby from a very thrilled owner

jefff1, congrats on your set up.
Indeed thrilled is how I feel as well, and a feeling of thanks and gratitude for the work Bobby put in the Merlins,
after many years of searching for THE sound I just found in the VSM mme
I did not try Bam yet the Arcam avr400 includes a zobel network in its circuitry, so I did'nt put the jumpers and rc wires, my cables were bi-wired so I just did a simple hook up and the sound so far is phenomenal (on spikes), The Merlins will be my speakers for life,
I will try the bams but I can tell you that the bass is tight and low, fast. and I'm very happy with it, want to mentionned that I use a single jlaudio f113, crossover 40-60 still experimenting.
Bobby I will call you very soon.
