TSM-MM not loud enough ...


While I have no problems with bass due to integration with Vandy 2Wq subs, the TSM-MM can not fill my 21'x16'x9' room. It has taken years to get my system as optimized (to my tastes) as it is now, other than lack of shear volume at times. Is there any viable option? Would the VSM fill my needs? I think Merlins are in my blood forever, but ...

Any input appreciated.

To all concerned:
I have no personal issue with the gentleman as he states. He probably is a nice guy.

However, his unprofessional and unethical conduct here i.e. using these threads as his personal sales playground is the issue.

Thank you.
Not to change the subject,but getting back to Merlins,I live in a condo and I talked to a girl in the elevator yesterday who asked if I had a piano in my place.No,just Merlins!Adieu,Bob
af,
There are plenty of other choices that will fill your requirements. "Undoubtedly better as well". this was posted by you, was it not?
how would you even know this since you have no first hand knowledge of my latest product or probably, none at all, for that matter?
preconception and assumption?
both unprofessional and not helpful to anyone except perhaps, you!

and my conduct is purely to stick up for my product and to give knowledge where it is needed. what i have found unprofessional is your conduct to be sure. first the two e-mails you sent me that border lined on rude when all i tried to do was to explain my side of this. and since you first intervention of a merlin string, months ago, i have watched you very closely. you are a classic example of "do what i say but not what i do"! there are many here that seem imperfect to you or motivated by something questionable, aren't there?.
i fail to see how a dealer has more place than a manufacturer posting here on agon. do you really want to compare the long list of things you sell to the two models i have refined for over 10 years and see who is complelled by what? my motivation is not money, that is obvious.
perhaps you should reconsider your position and stop this nonsense. do not read it if you do not like it!
and just for your information, you should see some of the e-mails i have received from others questioning your motives.
again, "you cannot make 100% of the people happy 100% of the time" and my favorite, "to thine own self be true."

You say defending when in reality it is selling. Anyway, there is plenty of daily criticism/ discussion in these threads regarding competitive brands such as Tyler, Green Mountain, Coincident, Von Schweikert, Totem, and on and on.

Very very very seldom do any of their principles step in and sell, oops I meant “defend” the products. Why is that? They are probably secure in the quality/reputation of their product. Lack of interest? I doubt it; they pay attention. Perhaps professionalism has something to do with it. I don’t know.
