The Merlin Music Systems VSM Millennium is a two-way floorstanding loudspeaker system known for its musical soul and coherence. It features a 1-inch Dynaudio Esotar D330/A soft dome tweeter and a 6.5-inch paper carbon-fiber cone woofer with a CSST aluminum basket and low diffraction rubber surround. The crossover is a 12dB/octave second-order design set at 2200-2250 Hz, using proprietary inductors, capacitors, and resistors from Hovland, Caddock, and Cardas. The speaker offers a flat frequency response from 33 Hz to 22 kHz (+/- 2 dB) with a 4 dB drop at 30 Hz when used with the optional BAM (Bass Augmentation Module). The BAM is a battery-powered, line-level low-frequency equalizer that boosts bass by about 5.2 dB at 35 Hz and rolls off infrasonic frequencies below 27 Hz, enhancing speed, weight, and depth of bass. The VSM Millennium is moderately efficient with a sensitivity of 89 dB/2.83V/m, nominal impedance of 8 ohms, and power handling of 200 watts music program. It is praised for its imaging, staging, inner resolution, and musical completeness. The cabinet is highly optimized with bracing, mass loading, and radius edges, finished in multiple standard or custom finishes. Dimensions are approximately 42 7/8" H x 8 5/8" W x 10 1/2" D, weighing 84.5 lbs each. The system comes with a generous 10-year parts and labor warranty and was The VSM Millennium is regarded as a special speaker that is easy to drive and offers an exquisitely balanced sonic experience with electrostatic-like resolution and a seamless midrange.
