Merlin Owner's...

They were just yellow. W/ the drivers and especially w/ the black covers the have the black/yellow bee look.

One day, bobby, one day...you'll be putting together yet another pair of yellow speakers...

the color is actually a volkswagen color, i think it was imola or emola yellow. and to me they looked like the biggest dammed bumble bee i have ever seen. super sharp but hard to live with in a traditional environment of my wife's antiques and persian rugs. i would imagine they look killer at rich's though. if you want the speakers to steal the show in a room, you are on the right track with those ones.

Bobby, even if your VSM-MX speakers were available only in primer flat chartreuse with baby crap yellow racing stripes, I would still have to have a pair. The sound is that good! The MX upgrade is everyhing I heard at CES this year. I could not be more pleased!

heh steve,
great to hear from you and really glad you are enjoying the mx. keep me posted on the breakin and where they end up for you.i'll think about the color thing but i'm not sure it would fly.
coming to see me in vegas?

FWIW... I love my Imola Yellow TSM-MX!!! Yes, the color is a VAG (Volkswagen Audi Group) color. It was one of the few colors available on the 2003 20th Anniversary Edition VW GTI if you want to get specific.

My main listening room is kinda dark (not much natural light) so the color of the speakers stands out nicely ;-) and they sound great too! The pictures do not do the speakers full justice. The color does not distract me from listening and has not seemed to bother the customers that have seen/heard them in my room.

Anyway, its hard for me to pick a favorite color, but I have been bugging Bobby to do a pimped out VSM-MX in Piano Black with chromed rods, esotar tweeter faceplate, and logos :-) :-) :-)
