Merlin VSM SE Speakers - Opinions

IN owning the vsm-se and the tsm-se,I must say that they are incredible in the imaging department,THE High quality drivers are found in the most expensive designs,MY only reservation and the reason i sold them was the lack of weight at the low frequency end.I tried the subwoofer route but could not get the proper intergration.TUBEGROOVER please take into consideration that you didn't mention the size of your room,and also your musical taste.THE merlins are fairly dynamic for their size,But prefer not to be played loudly. COMPONENTS i tried with my merlins:REL sub,CJ PRIMIER 12xs in triode mode amps:CJ PRE-AMP also AR VT200.

TUBEGROOVER,my room size is 13'widex22'longx9'high.I used them along the the long wall.I must specify that i also had the bamm unit and for a short time used them with the patho twin towers.THESE will work in your room,YOU just won't have that tight bottom end.I agree with the above gentlemen,they are REFERENCE caliber 2 way's and by far superior then many other brands costing twice as much. IF you decide on buying a pair, make your you get the latest which have a batt powered bamm and the new cardas tool-less cable post.IF bottom weight and strong dynamics are not #1 on your list when buying speakers.YOU will be happy with the merlins.ONE last thing,i was told merlin is working on a sub to accompany both the vsm and tsm.god luck.
