Hi, we've been going back and forth on the color. I was wondering whether you'd gotten the updated order form. My real name is pretty close to my member name here. But PM me if you need confirmation.

Thanks,

Hey Poetik, when you get a chance an update on where your at would be cool.  No rush though

Hey Guys only found this thread after chatting with rrahman. I recently received both Miracle and Merlin Customs.
As yet i have not posted any reviews, but ill take some time now as i have a spare moment.
First The Miracle: Well from what i can hear my source is an ipod classic 7G straight out using Apple lossless, as i sit i am listening to a K2 HD mastering Lim CD of HAPPY COAT, by Shota Osabe Piano Trio, and have a smile on my face. Miracle is effortless handling Ray brown's bass runs very detailed and punchy bass, if you are worried that they might not have much bass then no need.
If it is in the recording they will produce it. I love the crisp sounds of the drums and piano sounds very natural.On recordings of say the 70's era i found they lacked the impact that the more recent albums, but that's not to fault the Miracles, as they only bring out what is fed to them.
 
Switching now quickly to the Merlin...Wow the Bass, hey if you are a Bass head youre gonna have a ball.
The Bass is just so Deep and so low... Kinda like putting my subs on at home as i have two SVS PB13Ultra's. The great thing is they dont muddy up the sound, just more pronounced low bass.
Not as crisp as the Merlin but me likes it very much. Ok .
I am kinda used to this sound more as coming from IE8, but at the same time Merlin's just much better.
Both do not need any amping but would be interesting with all those new set ups out there.
Spud Harris has one hell of (what he calls) portable rig, going clas into balanced dac and amp . I also have it on good authority that paired with the classic, clas & SR71B The Merlins are one mean SOB.
So there you go hope you guys get yours soon.
I hope you also enjoy your Miracles and Merlins as much as i am.
I am so happy that i bought both really, as i think they compliment each other well..
Great fun to swap around for different Genres.
Well that's just my short take on what i am enjoying right now. Admittedly i havent spent a great deal of time with them both, but i have noticed changes in sound from when i first got them, so a little burn-in will be required and after that well it's Audio Nirvana Guys.

Update;
 
Got everything boxed up with the correct order forms.  I'm just waiting on a confirmation from Matt and I will send them off.

i am not excited any more, i am worrying now.


If you aren't excited anymore, I can send your impressions back to you and give your spot to someone else that's more excited? Lol =)
 
I know most of you already understand this but for the people that don't, UM is launching the promotion throughout the WHOLE world.  They have people signing up and invoices flying at their faces all day.  Not only that but Matt has been flying around and getting ready for CanJam too (actually he just emailed me from Denver last night).  There is a lot on their plate and it isn't exactly all on them either, I had to take care of stuff on my end as well.
 
Anyways, I've gotten the confirmation that I needed.  I just wanted to be absolutely sure that I would be reimbursed on this $300+ package that I'm sending out.  I'm sure that anyone else in my situation would have waited for it before they sent the package too. 
 
I will have a list of people's names (first name and last initial) of the people's impressions that were sent on the 1st page.  That will come later on today after I send out the package.

Sounds like it's finally happening guys.  We should be the first in line to receive the customs, so hopefully we'll be blown away by end of November.  It's hard being patient, especially when we've all spent nearly a grand or more but I'm getting more and more excited now. 
 
Good work Cedric.
