| Focal Mini Utopia vs Merlin MXe Pubul57,The Belles was an old recommendation from Bobby years ago, but I have definitely tried a slew of amps over the years with my various Merlin speakers, even after acquiring the Belles. For me, tubes are a must in the preamp, more so than the... | |
| Focal Mini Utopia vs Merlin MXe Sstalwar - I don't know of any Merlin dealers in Central Florida. I live in Deltona, which is probably more than a 100 miles from you, near the East Coast, but you're welcome to come over and listen to the VSM-MXe's if you're interested. I drive t... | |
| Anticables Review All I can suggest is further break-in. I'm trying a pair between my Merlin VSM-MXe's BAM and preamp, and yes at first they sounded rather "steely" and strident, but now I have no complaints at all. The remaining cables in my system are Audience AU... | |
| Review on the Tyler Acoustics Lynbrook Signature's Gooddomino,I am using the BAT VK-300XSE integrated amp, which is rated at 150 wpc into 8 ohms, and the match with the Signatures is pure synergy. I too have the 1-piece versions, and have them less than a foot from the back wall. The tubed preamp ... | |
| B&W 805S & BAT VK300x SE Integrated. Synergy?? Sounds good Papi-chulo, hope it's what you're hoping for - I've never owned AZ cables, but obviously they've been well reviewed for many years..good stuff I'm sure. FYI, my BAT has the silver and black faceplate. I called BAT just for kicks to see... | |
| B&W 805S & BAT VK300x SE Integrated. Synergy?? Papi_chulo,I own the 300XSE amp, and I can assure you it won't sound shrill or overly bright, as long as you partner it with the right speaker cable and interconnects. I use Audience AU24 throughout my system, which includes a Magnum Dynalab MD-10... | |
| Tyler Acoustic vs. Paradigm Gretsch6120 - you're getting the exact speakers I traded in recently (Taylo monitors in cedar) - trust me, you will not find a better speaker in that price range, new or used.I just received my new set of Reference IIIs from Tyler, in the Italian ... | |
| Tyler Accoustics....a true pleasure to deal with.. I'm on my third set of TA speakers in less than 6 months :)Went from Taylo monitors to Linbrooks to a new set of Ref IIIs in Italian Ebony (they're currently showing in Tyler's Ad for the Ref IIIs here on A-gon). I think I'm done for a while thoug... | |
| Is the Voodoo the problem? Hey Maleja,Did you ever determine what was causing the fuse problems with the Plinius 9100?Thanks,Denvelle | |
| Entry level tube amp to try Put your money toward the Unico from Unison Research. 80 wpc integrated amp with a tube front end and MOSFET outputs. The sound is phenomenal for the money and the retail price is under 1300.00 (though soon to go up after all the great reviews). I... | |
| Integrated to go with Merlin monitors I too have spoken with Bobby P. about synergystic amps (including integrated amps) for the Merlin TSM-Ms. I can tell you I've owned and listened to several, including the I-5, Electrocompaniet ECI-3, Audio Analogue Puccini SE (which Bobby loves), ... |
