need help with Merlin vsm mme for home theater

They will sound perfectly fine with the Straightwire, assuming the connections are all good. I would think about cables till you have at least a year with your new toy!

hi everyone,
the rc is an hf filter at 1.6 mhz. it also offers the amp a termination of 10 ohms at 100 khz so the amp settles down and sounds as it should. a must in cities where there is an abundance of fri and emi.
the bam has a 5.2 db boost centered at 35 hz (narrow band) to boost bass energy to make the vsm's response flat to 32 hz. it also filters energy below 28 hz to remove out of band energy which increases im distortion in the mid band.
imo the sub at 30 hz with the bam in the system is the way to go as the sub will not reproduce 40 hz as well at teh vsm bam combination from a distortion and natural sense. abundance is another issue.
jfz's opinion shows great consideration has been used and i profoundly agree.
thanks to paul too.

Hi Bobby,
Thank you much for chiming in and explaining how the bam and rc's work.
I will try the bam and sub together and work on a roll off as you suggest 30hz that would work well with the vsm mme.
Should be getting them in 10 days, I would also be interested in a center channel. I'm using my amp's analog stereo inputs for music.
Thanks again Bobby

I just want to add that the person selling me the vsm is buying the latest merlins vsm again, that speaks volume about these speakers.
thanks

t, you do know there is a tsm and vsm center channel do you not? imho the speakers have a sound that is on the organic side and you must be careful to use a center that is similar in sound or you will not use it especially if it sticks out like a sore thumb.
jmtc.
