Regardless of models, Revel vs Merlin, no comparison, hands down Merlins are superior. If you need more bass add a REL sub. BTW, I went from Revel F30's to TSM-M's to VSM-MX's. James .......

I'm currently using Siemens E82CC/12AU7 in my 308T with excellent results. Very open, clear sounding with very good tonality. My other fav's are the Amperex 7316 1950's PQ's. A little more "hi fi" (lu .......

I am using them...12 of them in my AES Six Pacs. To soon to report, but so far I like them. I was using SET EL34's. The Mullard's seem to better the SET's slightly in all respects. .......

A couple of years ago I replaced Revel F30's with the smaller Merlins, TSM's. Eight months ago I purchased Merlin VSM-MX's (and kept the TSM-M's). There is no comparison between Merlin and Revel speak .......

FWIW, I use a REL Storm III with my Merlin VSM-MX’s. It’s very versatile and can be used in several ways. They are best when driven off your amps speaker terminals (high output), but can also run from .......

Siemens E82CC/12AU7 or 1950's Amperex 7316 PQ's. I 've tried several and these are my favorites. The 7316's can be expensive. The Siemens (usually cheaper) are very open, clean, with a tonality that i .......
