NOLA Boxers in my space
I am extremely interested in these Nola Boxers and have been for a while now. Kev and Dm's comments only further my intrigue. Does anyone have any experience comparing them to the Master Merlin TSM-Mmi's?

BobbyP is a class act. Has always gone out of his way to entertain any question that I may have and actually encourages you to call him to speak person-to-person. It's near impossible to find that kind of service nowadays; not to mention character. 
Best CD I've heard so far 2011.........

SS amp for Merlin VSMs?

Wyred amps and Merlin VSM-MXe speakers
