Merrill Audio Element 118

Thanks for that twoleftears. I'm intrigued. I do know someone who has heard the 118s and he said very transparent. But as we all know without listening in your system. One never knows.

I read that enjoy the music review. I'm using Classe' CA M600 monoblocks directly into my Emm Labs DV2. It would make for a interesting comparison.

For this price a could get 2 PASS 350.8 amps to bi amp with.This would be much more dynamic with better bottom and top end.They do however look nice but at 36k they should.

Im betting the near future will introduce several highly competitive GaN amps at far more realistic prices.

I have a RicSchultz EVS 1200 based on dual 1200AS2 modules + a lot of tweaks, which sells for ~ $2400. PS Audio just introduced their mono 1200AS2s with tube buffer (why?) for $6 grand the pair
