Anybody considerered Merlins?

Noticed they got a room nod by Fremmer in a column and when I saw that they only sell two models plus the fact that like 911 (still since '64 a rear engine/drive flat line 6) th3ey have not reinvented the line only made it evelove.They use top products like Scan Spec and Dynaudio tweeters (though their monitor uses Morell drivers- a companies whose own offering I thought competent not earth shttering.Anybody out there listened to them and what did you think.

you better have a damn good home theatre pre to not hear the circuitry via the merlins. and i don't just mean when the x-over is active...

fwiw, i use merlin vsm's w/ entecs, using a passive x-over at 100hz. its seamless and dynamic as hell. the entecs are fast enough for the merlins...but i doubt anything else is (rel is not).

as usually is the case, tubegroover is right on the money. these speakers are most special.

within their constraints (room of moderate size, no ultradeep bass, and no 110+spl), they're unequaled below $15k.
