need help with Merlin vsm mme for home theater


thinking of buying vsm mme, my questions are, is it possible to use my Jlaudio f113 subwoofer with the speakers and not use the Bams? or do the bams have affect on the mids?
What is meant by RC's?
Is anyone using the vsm for home theater?
Since they're not demanding at 89db I was thinking of using my Arcam avr400, I know the speakers sound great with tube amp but I'm interested in a HT set up with what I have right now.
any input would be very helpful.
Thank you

jfz, your post is very conforting because I am thinking of buying the Merlin vsm mme from a relative who bought them from Bobby and was'nt sure if I sould ask Bobby about the bams so thank you for that.
As you say if its a matter of tweaking I'll try to crossover at the low end of the vsm's say at 40Hz? and keep trying I will probably get the bams just in case.
My room is 20x20x12-15 (angle ceiling) I beleive the vsm's will be fine.
Thank you for the great post it also brought back my hopes of getting them, I'm excited about that.
Bobby has a loyal following because he is loyal to his customers and his product - he wants you to have a good experience with your Merlins, know that satisfied customers help create more customers over time. Bobby is a great designer, the Merlins are very well sorted speakers - no flavor of the month, and Bobby is very helpful when you reach out. He may very well reply here before you get a hold of him.....
Pubul57,
I'm looking forward to getting them soon, thats exactly what I like about them "no flavor of the month".
Thank you so much for your valuable input it has been very helpful.
thanks
Tesseract86,

The BAM's boost is centered at 35 Hz. I'm not sure what range it operates over (Q) but I would think that your idea of trying the crossover at 40 Hz would be a good starting point.

I'm sure I read a thread here about the ideal subwoofer xver points for the Merlins.
