| MERLIN VSM OWNERS WITH SUBS perhaps you should give me a call first to go over the set up and jumper situation. i will have certain recommendations that may resolve the issue for you without the purchase of a sub. the super bam mod like spencer suggested is one consideration... | |

| Is 40w int. tube amp enough to feed MerlinVSM well i love the ma1 and keep looking for a joule pre...what a system that would be. i have a customer in ca with the same system and he really loves it.would certainly make me happy anyway.a few good powercords on the amp and pre and you would be ... | |
| Is 40w int. tube amp enough to feed MerlinVSM hi michael,i would move the speakers in to 5 feet 6 inches apart (center to center) to reduce side wall reflections. do you have the alignment tool to set the speakers toe angle?check on the termination of the amp with zobel or not.the side walls ... | |
| Is 40w int. tube amp enough to feed MerlinVSM i have a lot of things for you to do and try that will help you. rcs will make the sound more continuos and smooth if the amp is not terminated with a zobel. the feet will also make a big difference as will the sixth toe mod to change the footer p... | |

| Suggestions on an integrated amp for Merlin TSMM lots of great suggestions, prima luna with el 34s and stingray as step up to it for tube amps. an older pucinni with a good power cord for ss and even the rega brio works very well too.bobby at merlin | |
| Full range speakers with small footprint? hi tvad,i agree about hearing a speaker with your own music and that one's own personal preference has a lot to do with ones choice. but this speaker in particular is extremely continuous from top to bottom. and it is possible that the individual ... | |
| Full range speakers with small footprint? tvad,i think i understand what you are saying but this is more to the point. the woofer used in the vsm has an excursion of one full inch and a resonant freq or 28hz. if you use the speakers with a tonally neutral set of electronics and wires and ... | |
| What new amp for my Merlins hi jay,i have to agree with the people that suggested you have the speakers and bam upgraded. imho, you will get a 50 to 60% improvement in every aspect of the speaker/bam sound. then you can consider the amp and pre amp combination. the wonderful... | |
| Good match for Merlin? hi efficacy,if the merlin speakers are used the way they were designed to be used, there should not be a problem. so, lets check these points.the speakers should be 6 to 7 feet apart, center to center, listened to at 9 1/2 feet or more, use of the... | |
| All Merlin family members. hi dave,you and i spoke of your specific situation a number of times. with silver cable and bat gear in particular, the presense range will be enhanced and enable you to move the speakers farther apart. a more continuous sounding set of cables and... | |
| All Merlin family members. hi gentlemen,i prefer the speakers at 6 to 6.5 feet apart and listened to at 9 1/2 feet or more. you can listen wider apart or closer to them but they respond best not too far apart and listened to further away. they are designed with their power ... | |
| GMA Callisto VS. Merlin TSM hi elsneb,i saw your post and replied to it. my guess is that the moderator removed them both because he/she felt we were going off topic.when someone says negative things about a product that they have never heard and i stick up for the customer ... | |
| All Merlin family members. that will help dave as i am sure you have a lot of reflected energy conflicting with the direct radiated information. this will obscure the contrast potential.none of my designs are nearfield monitors. they are too uniform for that and are designe... |
