That being said, I've been keeping an eye out for a used pair of EBs to reshell. You are correct in saying that they are hard to find.

 

 


That certainly sounds promising, anyway. I wonder how the smaller dynamic in the Merlin compares with output from 5EB? 10mm to 13.5mm does seem significant.

personally im not really like a bass head myself... but yea i feel the bass is rich, impactful, pretty deep, and punchy, which is smth i actually looking for. Dont worry abt the bass. it aint dark at all. in fact, to me it sounds like a punchy hifi system which my dad has in our living room and his master bedroom...

Well it's done. Just put in my order for the Merlin, so can do an indepth compare between it and the Miracle. :D

Absolutely can't wait. But the wait this time will be far more bareable as I have the Miracles to keep me company while I wait...

I apologize for the sucky unboxing... it was hard to film and unwrap at the same time, especially with my bulky ipad.
