Why Merlins sound better then Sonus Faber

Still waiting for the name of the dealer where you listened to these side by side on the same source components. Either you did this, and the dealer has a name....or you asked a question with an implied statement about two products with which you don't even have any actual listening experience.

So you were able to do a side by side comparison, in the same room, using the same amp, source component(s), and cables, of Sonus Faber's top model(s) vs. Merlin speakers? Exactly which SF speaker(s) did you listen to, side by side, with the Merlin? The Aida? The Lilium? And where did this happen...I didn't know there were any dealers that sold both SF and Merlin together, I thought Merlins were sold direct.
