Merlin speaker /Amplifier combinations?


Merlin speaker owners/users.Which amplifiers do you recommend to use with Merlin.It seems that Valve/Tube amplification is very popular.My question refers more to Hybrid or Solid State amplification that would work well with Merlin VSM'S.Any opinions on the matter will be appreciated. My own speakers would be the VSM-MM's.

The standard solid state recommendations (from Bobby and Rich) are the Belles 150A Reference and the Simaudio W-5. I use the Belles with my VSM-MMs, and I continue to be amazed by the music (and the amount and quality of bass) as it flows through this system.
i just picked up my VSM-MM upgrade . unreal is all i can say. & to top it all off .....im using the first amp i ever bought (maybe 15 years ago) a $350 B&K st 140.. the sound is superb. the upgrade is WELL worth it. the speakers arent even broken in yet. the sound is HUGE & the bass is nice & deep. soundstage improved & the space between the instruments also.
I highly recommend Belles series of solid state amps w/ my merlins...very nice.

mr belles is cryogenicly treating his new amps and i hear they are even better than before.
one thing though, the speakers are now more neutral. that being said, they will interface with a wider range of equipment and play a much more diverse cross-section of your music.
the speakers exhibit a complete quality with even better tonal balance. there is not even the slightest hint of brightness or grain in the presentaion allowing them to be interfaced with more ss, hybrids or tube electronics than you would ever think possible.
