Ars Sonum / Merlin TSM-MX???

Toudou,

Before I demoed the ARS Sonum Filarmonia, I certainly shared your concern on the 30 watts, however IMO, it's plenty IMO. I was just watching a DVD movie (Mr & Mrs. Smith) with the ARS Sonum Filarmonia and I was pretty blown away how well it did, and we had it very loud. Sounded simply awesome.

Toudou,

You really need to check with Bobby on the waiting period. Length of time is still being confirmed.

Thank you for everything, Ed.

Interesting thread as I have ordered some Merlin TSM-MX speakers and have been considering either Joule, CAT, Dehavilland or Audiopax amps. However, I had also seen mention of this ARS sonum amp - sounds interesting. Have any of you auditioned other amps?? I think it is either the Audiopax or Joule for me now.

Vicks7, I have not auditioned a great deal of amps with the Merlin TSM-MXs. I have listened to the Cary SLI-80 and the AR Vsi-55. Without getting into the details of the others, I preferred the balanced tone and "live" presentation of the ARS Sonum integrated with the Merlin TSMs. Hope this helps.
