Summary:
this is one hell of a speaker with very good stereo imaging and depth perception. i myself prefer the sonus faber stradivari which i found to be the best speaker i have ever heard regardless of price

Strengths:
very good bass, emotional and extremely easy to listen to

Weaknesses:
needs pertnering to good amps such as the krell fpb700cx and a good front end like a dcs three box cd

Money.. To bad we can not all afford the price.

Summary:
Recently a buddy and I attended an open house for the relocation of a local high end dealer. When we arrived, we were greeted by a valet that parked my car in a parking spot that was 10 feet from where I handed him my key's. I know this is beside the point but this was part of my Wilson Experience. When we entered, the atmosphere was pleasant but somewhat different from what we were expecting. Alot of schmoozing and boozing. There was hardly any music playing!

We finally made our way to the "main" listening room and no one was in the sweet spot! I planted my fat behind and kicked back for a listen. They were playing some Harry Connick Jr. The first thing that I noticed was the the imaging was not very good. The sound eminated more from the left speaker and the room sounded bright. The sound was clear but a little harsh on the ear's. I was somewhat puzzled due the the associated equipment (Musical Fidelity Amps, Sony SACD, PS Audio Conditioning and Transparent Cables). I got the feeling that this speaker was being held back from it's true capabilities. This is probably due to the dealer not having enough time to tweek the setup. The speaker was massive and should've been voicing with dynamic and engaging sound. This review sound's a little harsh, but this is what I was hearing. My friend and I left the room and we barely spoke in the listening room. His comment's were the same as mine! I think that the room was not optimized. There was one set of sound panel's to the rear 2/3's of the room behind the listener.

I think that these are exceptionally well built speaker's and didn't have the setup they deserve. Maybe the turntable that was sitting idle may have been a better choice.

I went home that evening and turned on my Audio Research, Cal Audio,Pass, KEF LS3/5A, MIT cables etc.....

My face was sore from the dumb ^&* grin I had on my face
as I reflected my Wilson Experience.

Sorry but I really wanted to be impressed!!!!

Strengths:
A sight to behold.

Weaknesses:
May be too pricey for performance.
