Who stay with Merlin longest time


Hi all,
Just wonder, Merlin ex- and current owners - Who set the record of oldest marriage with Merlin? :)
My second anniversary in Sept, yet I already sent them in for a face lift (master BAM/RC) :-)
My system's evolving around Merlins - costly but fun
Happy listening

2002 MX to MXe to Master BAM, by the far the longest owned piece of equipment I have, and of course, the rest built around it.
Replaced Wilson Watt/Puppy with VSM-MX and BBAM around 2005 and have since installed many running DIY modifications to Merlin. The underlying design is sound. Piece parts substitutions and other mods to VSM/BBAM have always been rewarding.
Well...I don't really qualify for this thread since my TSM's are quite new, but I will say that I can't imagine a better small monitor (nor have I heard one) after more than 20 years in this hobby.
I do think that some people change speakers just to try something different and I've certainly sold off wonderful gear for change alone. Please stand by for 7-8 years and I'll post a follow-up!

You Merlin lovers are something else. Obscene dollars paid for an aging design that simply doesn't compete with so many speakers out there. The cult of Bobby (the charlatan Czech))must simply be too strong for your weak minds to resist.
Thanks for the enlightened heads up Jimbo. Yes sir, we're all just a bunch of weak minded dupes.
