| Cardas Cold Forging the copper wires are pressed together and extruded. they are in effect one piece. to get them apart a chisel would be needed. are they melted? maybe, maybe not but there is heat evident. how about fused?when the connector is crimped to the wire bu... | |
| Cardas Cold Forging mitch, Day one: Old terminations removed. Ends are dipped in solvent to remove the clear coat on every strand.Day two: dipped again, while being agitated. Set out to dryDay three: unwind the conductors using a couple of wire wheel hand tools to re... | |
| Cardas Cold Forging to everyone, the cost for cold forging a pair of single run speaker cables is $300 or $37.50 a connection (this is for 8 spades). the cost for cold forging a pair of internal bi-wire cables is $400 or $33.33 a connection (this is for 12 spades). t... | |
| Merlin Master Bam Alert crt, i have not heard it so i cannot say.who said it is better than the fila and why? what speaker was used?what paul said is very well put.i am not a fan of 88's as a rule.i prefer e34l's and the fila was tuned to sound right with the merlins. | |
| solid state amp for merlin tsm's ? s, also think about the supra classic 6 speaker cable. this is a cable i strongly recommend with the speakers and ss amplification. a single run and use the cardas jumpers the speakers come with.ok?best, b | |
| Merlin TSM comparisons rebbi, the tsm offers very flat amplitude and a high degree of resolution. if the speakers are toed using the alignment tool (that they come with) and stand level, their contrast potential will become the best it can be. speakers as a rule have ve... | |

| solid state amp for merlin tsm's ? samski, generally i would recommend an amp of lower power no higher than 100 watts per. this will ensure a higher output impedance which means lower damping. also good is minimum feedback and possibly class a. the old forte is superb as mentioned ... | |
| Merlin Master Bam Alert i know you will both like the direction it takes.no beryllium and very coherent but for bigger volume rooms.b | |
| Merlin Master Bam Alert nope, the vsm/tsm mmi, mx-r and master will always be on the price list. why give up on something you have been finessing for 17 years? the exhaustive r+d will be transfered to the sub and 3 way.when a newer technology comes along that we can inco... | |
| Merlin Master Bam Alert i totally agree t, that is why i do things as i do. but not all agree or see the wisdom. i saw no reason to junk a perfectly good product for a newer one. i think most that "heard" a comparison from early to later product would understand. you can... | |
| Merlin Master Bam Alert paul, don't let it get you down. the vsm was in class a for 7 years. i think they leave a product on it for 3 years. the vsm m was placed in class a in 2004 and then in 2007, the vsm mx. they kindly extended the mxe version there for a while too. ... | |
| solid state amp for merlin tsm's ? samski, power amp or integrated?best regards,b | |
| Merlin Master Bam Alert paul, they have been really good about their projections of shipping dates but things happen, shows, illnesses etc. what we didn't realize is that so many would want this done and that has the waiting time long and there is nothing i can do becaus... |
