I've been off this board for a long time but I've got the 'itch" again!!A very simple question . . . .then again maybe not so simple?
Putting aside power and source components, which speaker would you choose and why? I would love to hear opinions from someone who is familiar with both Merlin and Sonus. My music taste runs the full gambit from Jazz to Classical to Classic Rock at medium to mediuum/high sound levels. I will replace my pre/amp to best match either of these brands.
Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage
Sonus Faber Cremona Auditor
Merlin TSM Millennium (TSM-M)
Granted the Guarneri would be a stretch but it's not out of the ballpark! For a small room which speaker would be best??
