I am not familiar with Merlin speakers. There is just no dealers in my area. I would love to hear a pair. From everything I have heard they sound like they are terrific.
So take my speaker cable suggestion with a grain of salt. But the Anti-cables by Paul Speltz are amazing. I know our audiophile brain says, for the money they can't be good, but they are. They are great. They replaced my old Audioquests that were $600 Canadian.
There is a review (other than consumer) online now:

For the price you have nothing to loose. Give them a try, I think everyone will be pleasantly surprised.
There are plently of posts about them on Audiogon and Audioasylum.
Also, sorry for the rave, but I just can't keep in how much I love them.
Happy Listening,
