I have Merlin VSM-M speakers and want more. The Merlins are very natural sounding, but don't play loud and don't have the snap I want. I like 70's rock and head music and want a wide soundstage with good depth and live snappy kick. I was told Von Schweikert VR 4jr and the Gallo 3.1. I need more bass at least 30hz at -3db. I want a wide sweet spot, so I can enjoy them with friends. I once owned Altec Lansing 510 and those speakers rocked. My favorite speakers were Proac response 1s. I want the response 1s top with the Altec bottom or better. I tried this by building North Creek Music's Rhythm speakers. They were just ok so I went to the VSM-M.
