Anyone using subs with Merlin VSM-ME's

Hi Bobby- any experience with 2Wqs used with the VSMs?

I do not have expereince with the Merlins.

However, I can vouch for the VBT Magellan VI sub.

I just recently replaced an inexpensive Energy sub with a pair of VBTs. These subs are mated with the relatively inexpesnive Totem Mite monitors. The result is nothing short of stunning! This setup rivals, and in some ways surpasses, alot if full range towers.

The bass in fast and tight. Soundstage is HUGE.

If you google for VBT Magellan you will find alot of discussion from the Horn crowd. I think this is a testament to their abilities.

I was concerned about lack of SPL. With two subs this is not a concern in my 13X23 ft room, with 12 ft ceilings.

These subs also appear to not finicky about placement.

These subs blend acoustically and estically! Their small size allows them to be easily hidden. For integration into a living room system (i.e non-dedicated listening room where large subs are not desired for esthetic reasons) they are ideal.

Next on the upgrade list... replace the Mites with Totem Model 1s!

Hi Swampwalker,
No I have no specific experience to report on with that woofer system...sorry.
Still though, be sure that if you are using the tuning pucks on the BAM and other parts of the system, ERS on the BAM and your digital, have the sixth toe mod with two feet on the front and one in the center rear and listen at 9 to 9 1/2 feet, there is less than a 5% chance that you will ever want or need a sub. A prodigious 30 Hz is very deep and a lot more that 95% of listening rooms can't support it.
