Merlin Owners...


I know Cardas Golden Ref or Audience AU24 are recommended but I'm having a heck of a time finding used Golden Ref speaker cables at a length I need. Anyone using something different with success?

You don't mention your budget, and these aren't cheap, but Stereovox works real well. Just ordered a pair after demoing them for a few weeks.
Yikes! Just checked price of Stereovox!!! I'm looking for used or good price on demo - $500.00 to $900.00.
I use Virtual Dynamics "Master" bi-wire and have never heard better. I've tried Cardas Golden Cross, Analysis Plus, and the V.D. Audition. They're cumbersome to work with, but once in place that's irrelevant. Better everything! Unfortunately, I'm selling my Merlin's and the V.D. Master cables on Agon now for financial reasons. If curious - check the Merlin listings. Best of luck, Dave
Hi tomryan

I had great success with Purist Aqueos Anniversary and Merlin VSM-Ms, and preferred the Pursit over the Cardas.  You can find them biwired used for about $600-700 (retailed for about $1800-$2200).

Best of luck.
