Calling Merlin upgraders
lugnut,the sub concept that we will employ is very different than any currently on the market. so do any available ones measure up, only partially? and by that i mean in the bass extension but not in the stratification or placement of the output. ... 
Calling Merlin upgraders
to put the subs into production will cost close to $200,000.00 and to be honest we are so busy building our four speaker systems we do not have the time to put something new in the works. if you really want the last octave then get some subs but t... 
How much power for Merlin VSM speakers?
good post!the finesse of a low powered set can be breathtaking and berning amps are remarkable designs.the uniformity of the vsm mm and the q circuit in the hf network make this low level resolution very audible.the sparation of mass voices and ti...

baddabob,if you give me a call at my office i'll gladly take the time to do this topic justice.there is no way that it can be done in this forum and with e-mail. it is a complicated issue but one that can be explained.just remember, your amp is da...

baddabob,with the dh labs and the bryston i would suggest looking elsewhere for speakers because the sound will be too damped in the bass for the neutral merlin. merlin speakers like to see ss with low damping factors like some of the mosfets and ... 
Merlin Owner's...
the speaker is critically damped to rid it of noise and distortion plus is extremely uniform. it is very neutral and likes to be used with ss that is less damped and tube designs.this means your amp will be much better than older brystons but stil... 
How much power for Merlin VSM speakers?
abrahavt,a 5 db energy boost at 35 hz can bother all low power sets but i think this is more an issue of pilot error than a problem with the bam. generally out of band energy (below the fs of the woofer, 28 hz) is as big a power drain as the boost...

How much power for Merlin VSM speakers?
how about letting us in on the size of the room, music taste and listening volume. the more complex the material the more power you will need. 75 watts will play complex music at any level but i also have 4 quad IIs at 12 watts each on them at hom...

well artg,i was in on the ground floor of the recommendations that started the wave of merlin/berning ownership. i own one and have recommended it many times here and just about everywhere. it is one of my three reference amps and although it is n...

pranxxxter,the best sound will be derived by using amps and wires that show a more relaxed and robust sound quality. what you are hearing now may be great but when you get something on there that sounds more like the speakers do, you will really b...
