| | SoundStage! Equipment Review - Merlin TSM (12/1997) |
 | | Proper placement of the TSM is crucial to their performance, not only in terms of height as previously described, but also toe-in and distance from the side and rear walls. |
 | | The TSM, like the VSM, seems more partial to the smooth sound of tubes although this is a gross generalization because there are some extremely smooth and clean solid state amps that can be had for relatively few dollars. |
 | | The TSM could not match the Conquest in terms of bass performance, but bettered it by offering an even more revealing and tonally accurate presentation and, as well, improved upon it in terms of width and depth of image, and focus. |
