| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. m, how old is your fila amp?what is the serial number?if it is an older one and has lead in it, that would explain why you like the silver cables in one spot.as i said, it has a lot to do with the equipment and set up used. and your mme's are soft... | |
| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. m and j, the wire "you" prefer with "your" vsm speakers will reflect the version of the vsm used, the set up, the room, the associated electronics and "your" personal taste. when i make a recommendation it reflects my choice in regards to the abov... | |

| Merlin vsm with BAM between pre and power m, the mme is fantastic with ss and even better sounding with good tube gear. a preamp will make the use of the sbam and its sound even better.all combinations will offer great sound with some being better in certain ways.the mme is a very versati... | |
| Merlin vsm with BAM between pre and power m, what verion of the vsm do you have?some sound better with ss than others.best, b | |
| Merlin vsm with BAM between pre and power o, good observations.bobby at merlin | |
| Merlin vsm with BAM between pre and power m, it was designed to be used between the source and pre or in a tape loop. this way it is buffered by the output section of the pre. however if your system sounds too heavy/dull or you use a subwoofer you may prefer it between the pre and power. ... | |
