Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: Merlin VSM-M to what

Contrary to what some say, I find the Merlins very room and placement sensitive. They simply might not be the speaker for your room, whether it be room size (Merlins sound best in smaller rooms) or placement in the room. I've heard excellent bass come out of Merlins, but at their optimum, they still might not be enough bass for what you're craving. I have never found any faults in their midrange though. The Merlin midrange is my idea of perfection.

In addition to the other suggestions, I'd consider JM Reynauds.

Careful with your hearing. 110 db (which the Merlins are capable of in reasonably sized rooms) can cause some serious ear damage quite quickly.
