TSM-MM not loud enough ...

I guess I should have known better ... My fault for NOT saying I've already talked with Bobby, (this was a few months ago, I would doubt you remember, B, given the volume of call you probably receive) I was looking for specific info regarding other's experience that may have upgraded to a more efficient, "louder" speaker, that sounds just-like-a-Merlin. I have to assume that is probably the VSM series.

Sorry, but dB levels are not my thing, this is merely a subjective question. How much louder is also subjective so I'll have to say, a little more than a little louder, OK? If this is too ignorant of a statement, I apologize. The TSM is plenty loud enough ... most of the time, however I will give up quantity for quality. It just maybe I've given up a bit more quantity that I wanted to. One never knows until the component is in-hand.

"Sentiment" has nothing to so with it, I love the speaker, in my system, now more than ever, um ... "now." I'm interested in the power handling and SPL that the VSM may offer over the TSM from mid-bass up. I could/should have just taken Bobby's word for it, but I didn't buy the TSM originally for that reason either so ....

I don't see what the rest of my system has to do with it ... It's already too much power for the TSM, but the synergy, imho, is perfect. If anyone cares, see user Thom at AA for details.

Thanks

Bobby, I feel you have been helpful and pretty even handed in your comments. I enjoy hearing from you. In a general sense (i. e. - not directed at you)I feel capable of sifting through what gets posted on here and ID'ing what's exclusively self-serving and what isn't.

thanks to all that have commented here about trying to help thom and for supporting my efforts on agon.
thom, i know what you feel because i sense the same thing you do about the tsm in some situations and in larger rooms. when you have a chance give me a call and i will be happy to help you. i may also have some news that will make you feel better and be interesting as heck for you.
happy holidays to all,
bobby

there are always 'louder' choices. please reserve fighting for the wilson threads...thank you.
