Anyone using subs with Merlin VSM-ME's

I'm considering adding a sub or two to my system. My main speakers are Merlin VSM-M with BAM. Has anyone out there been able to integrate subs successfully.

I'm leaning towards small driver (10" or less)to be fast and REL is a candidate. Are there any sealed enclosure subs worth considering?

Maybe Bobby P. can chime in and let us know the status of the Merlin sub. I''ll volunteer to be a beta tester : ).

You will want to use the BAB as the high pass filter even with the subs. Use a sub that crosses over at 30 Hz at 12 or 24 dB per octave with phase inversion at the 24 dB slope.
Rels work well and small fast drivers are a better bet to keep up with the VSM's speed. Do you have the sixth toe mod? Do you have the ERS and tuning puck for BAM and digital? Do you have the premium finish speakers or the studio blacks?

You might want to consider the VBT Magellan VI sub. Uses an incredibly fast six inch driver. Reviewed highly by 6 moons.

Bobby: No, I do not have the latest mods. My pair is the gorgeous ruby red finish. I'll contact you regarding the 6th toe, ERS and puck early next week.

Danamc: Thanks for the suggestion.
