Beginners Tube Amp Recommendations I wet my feet with Jolida and some Dynaudio. I realized that tubes was the way I wanted to go.My next step was Rouge Audio. Great amps, great company. You have to spend a lot more to get a lot better. My next step will be Joule-Electra when I save... | |
Merlin VMS versus VMPS RM-40 versus Proac 3.8 Sogood, I posted on there last night. John Casler a dealer from LA said another pair should be shipping soon to NY. So I think an audition is in my future. Thanks for the repsonse. | |
Merlin VMS versus VMPS RM-40 versus Proac 3.8 Well here is my story. I have the Merlin VSM-M's in Wineberry. Paid about $3400 for them, which I thought was a good deal.I love them, have not heard anything that "blows" them away with detail. BUT... witht hat being said, I also have a Home Thea... | |

And walls fallng down for movies.I just came to this board right now to start looking for HT speakers an... | |
Joule-Electra Stargates with Merlin VSM's? Off the top of my head I think the Merlins are 89bB.That's whatI was thinking. But I want Monoblock so my next choice would be the VZN100's. Better start eating PB&J sandwiches | |
How weak is my Digital link? Kana,Thanks.I'm not sure what you mean with regard to bypassing the input switch, what does that do? | |
How weak is my Digital link? Toslink from the CD player to the DAC, Coax from the DAC to the Pre.Hey for $30, ill try anything. I guess thats why I smoke pot. ;)Thanks | |
How weak is my Digital link? Thats kinda the truth for most things, but there comes a point of diminishing returns.My question would be, do I need to spend at least $2k to hear a "big" improvment? $1k? Or are those two component stong enough to hold thier own with and CD play... | |
Joule Electra LA 150 Stop it. All of you. You are going to make me sell my Rogue stuff and mortgage the house form some Joule-Electra gear.My VSM-M's already have that sad puppy dog face on. They want a Cherry red cousin. | |
MERLIN TSM-M and surround speakers? I have the VSM-M for the L/R, the TSM-M for the center. I plan on running 7.1 so I am kinda in the same boat.4 TSM-M' for the surrounds?!?!? Kinda a waste, no?Which Dynaudio do you speak of? The Audience 52's? | |
MERLIN OWNERS: Need Suggestions on Amps/Preamps I am now going throught the saem thing. I have the Merlins paired with Rogue 99 Pre and Rogue M120 Mono's. I like this combo a lot musically, but quite frankly have not heard much else with the Merlins. Im afraid to hear them with Joule Electra.Bu... | |
Whats up with Merlin? Cant really add more then what was said. I have the VSM-M and love them. Bobby hasbeen more then great. Merlin and Rogue audio, two great companies!! | |

How to audition speakers? I asked the same question on the Asylum and got a great response.http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/speakers/messages/96830.html"First of all, there is far more variation from speaker to speaker than from amp to amp or from CD player to CD player. S... | |
