Best speaker cables for merlin speakers?
I had the Merlins VSM and used the Golden Reference with them, worked very well. As we all know your beautiful speakers uses the Esotar D330A tweeters, one of the most amazing mids ever, the ones on the Electa Amator mk1 as well and overall presen...

Have Jeff Rowland Concentra II am I crazy...
I think you should get rid of the Rowland! Its a beautiful sounding amplifier on its own. If you like the tube sound then go tube. That integrated is a well integrated amplifier to perform as it is. I think you are better off getting a pre-power o...
