Re: Merlin -vs-Sonus

"Are the Guarneri to much speaker for my room? If so which would be better, the TSM's or the Cremona Auditor?"

Forget the Cremona, get the Guarneri lovely, lovely speaker. It has a more refined top-end and sounds exquisite on classical music. On the other hand, the Cremona Auditor has a bigger bottom end and will probably do a better job on rock type music. You pays the money, makes the choice. Not heard the VSM, but looking at the Frequency plots (Stereophile), it will sound more detailed than the Guarneri, however the Guarneri is the more truthful to the source, since the VSM tweeter is balanced about 1-2db higher than the midrange, whereas the Guarneri is flat thru midrange with a slight dip between 5KHz - 10Khz to forestall any treble attack, the balance of both speakers above 10Khz is similar.
