I haven't heard the Auditors or the TSMs, but have heard the Merlin VSM-Ms. Your description of the Merlin sound is pretty dead on with my experience. You did a nice job of summarizing their strengths and limitations. They do sound better with some instruments than others and piano does sound excellent on Merlins. I find the Merlins do have an intoxicating quality that is hard to walk away from, but they certainly have their share of weaknesses and are not for everyone's taste. I thought your post captured the essence of both. Good job! However, it would be nice if you could register and list your system; I find that very helpful whenever anyone has good input on stereo components as it helps assess how one has arrived at those conclusions.
