http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/search.mpl?searchtext=Merlin&b=OR&topic=&topics_only=N&author=&date1=2006-05-03&date2=2007--05-03&slowmessage=&sort=score&sortOrder=DESC&forum=speakersBut there are also that many for Sonus Faber and 186 for Reynaud and 200 for Audio Note, so I am essentially wrong about your getting the most references. But you're certainly getting your share, eh? Weird thing is Thiel got 200 too. Wonder if the Search Engine cuts off at 200? Spendor gets 200, Harbeth gets 200. Oh well.
Follow Ups:
Hi Bob,Yes, the search engine cuts off at 200 results. You can tighten up the date range to get a better picture. What the heck, I'm sitting at breakfast at the Lone Star Audio Fest in Dallas absorbing CDs into my laptop to demo the Audio Note Kit DAC 2.1's USB input, so I'll redo the search while I sit. . . . .
Keep your ears and your mind open.
In the period 1/1/07 - today, searches on the following terms in the Speaker Forum produced the following number of hits:Merlin 141
Bose 118
Thiel 101
JMR or Reynaud 90
Audio Note* 77* Audio Note was searched for as an exact match to avoid counting posts with audio in one place and note in another having nothing to do with the audio company.
On the other hand, Merlin results may, in some cases, have related to discussions of famous wizards. The search was as rigorous as I could make it without being silly. Silly is, of course something that can never be used to describe the goings on here at the Asylum. (I can hear the inference canon firing up in the distance . . .)

No, I meant Dave Cope provided up to date statistics to "back up" my impression that Merlin gets more than its fair share of attention around here.
corrected!
these must be more of an isolated mention in other strings because i watch this site very closely for full discussions to see how they are going. and since the new year there have been very few. i had no idea that merlin was mentioned so many times in embedded discusions. sorry and thank you.

bob,
maybe so but in the last number of months there have been virtually none. and that is what i meant and should have said specifically.
