Are Merlins too much?


I have a smallish room, but I hope I'm not stuck in here forever. The room is about 10 x 12, or maybe 10 x 14 at the most. My system is a Nakamichi OMS 7A II, Audio Institute integrated tube pre-amp and Canton speakers. The interconnect is Purist Opis and the speaker cable is the Paul Speltz junk. I would not use it with the new speakers.

Are the Merlin VSM-Mx speakers too much for my system or my room? Will they over power the room or will they be too revealing of my less than great Nakamichi and/or Audio Institute?

I don't remember what model the Canton's are but they're tiny. They aren't even one foot tall, and the model is a 10 something. The floor standing Merlins would be a huge step up, not that the Canton's aren't good in the right application.
