Sound difference between Revel M20 and Merlin TSM

I am evaluating the possible purchase of one of these babies.
Would anybody helping me to differenciate their qualities ??

I like very transparent sound (not far from electrostats) but at the same time sweet on the edges and splendid soundstage.
That's all

I haven't heard the Merlin speakers but have owned M-20's for 9 months and they sound like they might be just what you are after. I owned electrostatics before the M-20. However you will most likely have to have patience to get the best from them. If the rest of your system isn't to the the M-20's liking,they will let you know. It has taken me about 7 months to get them sounding their best but as they are now they are the best speakers I've owned. Best of luck.

The Revel M20 are very similar to the top 1/2 of my Parsifal Encores, as a result are my favorite under $2k monitors, along with the Spendor S3/1p (for a sweeter sound).

Heard M20 and VSM-M. While I would say the TSM is better (if it sounds like VSM) the M20 would be sweeter.
So maybe conside TSM with a sweeter amp/preamp.
