Merlin Master Bam Alert

My buddy just received his dual mono dual ops bam.The first one sold.He has VSM MXE's.Thought you would like to see his reaction:"There is an uncanny sense of realism.
I was listening in the dark with my eyes closed.
The sense of being in a concert hall was so great that my brain created a seemingly real visual image of where it thought it was.
After the piece ended I just shut the system down. I did not want to take a chance of diminishing the impact of what I had just experienced.
Quite an accomplishment."
I will be receiving my single ended Master Bam shortly and will report my findings in more detail.

It's all about perspectives. The upgrade path is one of the big reasons I wanted my Merlin TSMs. As they (Merlin) continue to refine their speakers I just send them to the shop and have my speakers improved.

I really like the Focal 1007Be. If I would have gone with the 1007Be a few months later I would have been a bit disappointed to see the new and improved 1008Be come out. I got a feeling if I asked Focal to upgrade the 1007s to the 1008s I'd be out of luck.

All I know is that if I went all out with Raw foods I'd need a huge bottle of Beano and people would not enjoy my company. Not that they necessarily do now.

Cheers,

I had the VSM-mme with a Art Audio 845 SET and a deHavilland UltraVerve pre. All I will say is that I wish I had that set-up back.

Tjuan98, if your system and room are set-up with some care, I believe your are in for a treat.

Cheers,

Scott
