General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: I have a question for Bob, Bobby and jbcortes

I'm butting in here, but I'm sure Bobby or jb will respond..

To me, there is no other speaker(s) that sound quite like Merlin. It's difficult to describe because Merlin speakers are transparent but still retain image density. They can sound warm but not syrupy. They can sound full but not bloated. They have high resolution without being analytical.

They are easy to drive. They sound pretty much like whatever the recording sounds like. But just because they are neutral...they are never boring.

I like the 'sound' of many different speakers too. But so far, none that make me want to give up my Merlins. The general 'character' of the TSM is surprisingly similar to the VSM. They both play larger than their size. And with a sense of 'ease'. The VSM takes it all several notches further than the TSM...but the overall presentation is remarkably similar.

They are worth an audition for any music lover who wants music to sound natural and complete in their home.
