| Merlin VSM-M or VSM-MX vs. Kharma CRM3.2 series Hi Rcr,I'm afraid that you have no idea what the Merlin VSMs sound like without the BAM. The BAM is part of the system and is in fact the speaker's management system. It would be like driving a Vette on 3 wheels and saying that its handling and ac... | |
| Tenor Hybrid v. VTL MB-450 Sig. I thought that was a given! | |
| Tenor Hybrid v. VTL MB-450 Sig. I wish I had a picture of you while you were sleeping. Shoes off, totally exhausted from four days of music and banter. Thanks for your help and company.Bobby@merlin | |
| Couple of questions on the Merlin VSM speakers... I think you have a fine system and would be a solid candidate for the VSM M. Let me know when you are looking for speakers because I may be able to find you a second hand pair at a great price that has the latest technology. I MX is very new and w... | |
| Tenor Hybrid v. VTL MB-450 Sig. Hi Kevin,Sorry, I thought you were an engineer friend that owned the speakers in CA. Many thanks for your kind thoughts and feel free to contact me at any time if there is something that I can do for you. We would be pleased to have you in our Mer... | |
| Tenor Hybrid v. VTL MB-450 Sig. Bye the way Kevin, did you ever do the sixth toe mod to your speakers? This will make a really big difference for you and actually further reduce energy build up in the VSM while providing more stable footing. The additional bass extension and ful... | |
| Tenor Hybrid v. VTL MB-450 Sig. Hi Kevin,I ask you to read my last post again as it explains that the resonance issue was actually dealt with prior to the review in Stereophile. Flying changes to the production of the VSM were made in advance of the review but the review sample ... | |
| Couple of questions on the Merlin VSM speakers... Which Audio Note Dac do you have?Bobby@merlin | |
| Tenor Hybrid v. VTL MB-450 Sig. And by the way Rhyno, the dynamic compression and loud level playback issues have been fully dealt with. A few months before the review in Stereophile, we made a flying production change to the VSM M and extended the front double baffle down the e... | |
| Tenor Hybrid v. VTL MB-450 Sig. I have been keeping an eye on this string and have a few things to add.Robert, you are judging all VSM Millenniums by the ones heard at Rhyno's home and this is a mistake. His speakers were wired with the S harness. This version is voiced to be th... | |
| Couple of questions on the Merlin VSM speakers... Your room size is not an issue but could you describe you other components? | |
| Couple of questions on the Merlin VSM speakers... I would like to add a point or two.First, Ruby Heart looks like the Oxblood leather color. We use two coats of black under coat and then spray on the red color and clear. This gives the finish a sense of dimension/depth and richness. A Burgundy wi... | |
| Why so many Merlin VSM's for sale?? That is why Danner found the VSM needed more warmth. They lose their tonal accuracy without the BAM or if they are crossed over at higher than 30 Hz. By removing the out of band subsonic energy, the woofer can play in linear excursion at much high... | |
| Why so many Merlin VSM's for sale?? I think that this is a most fair and intelligent question and I would like to present a different perspective on the matter. There is no doubt that having product go up for resale makes a manufacturer look bad especially if there are larger quanti... | |
| Merlin VSM-M and Bass Hi Tom,The speakers will sound very full and natural even with the four feet used. The bass will not be quite as extended or as punchy but it will still sound wonderful and keep you happy knowing that your little one and the speakers will be more ... |
