ARE WILSON AUDIO WATT PUPPY 8 FOR 6 GRAND A GOOD DEAL?


I have the opportunity to get a mint pair of Wilson Watt puppy 8's for 6 grand. How does the performance of this loudspeaker stack up with current stuff and is this a good deal?

You can poo poo klipsch all you want. But if you haven’t heard the CW IV, you know nothing of what you speak. None of what you said is true of this speaker.  But if you think you’d like the Hi Fi, artificial sound of Wilsons, you might be right, the CW is not for you.
@jeffvegas,
By many accounts the current generation of Klipsch (At lease the Heritage series) is better than you probably appreciate. As I’m sure you would acknowledge, insert /substitute any brand of speaker and you’ll receive a broad range of responses.

It’s apparent that you are attracted (They have a large and loyal customer base) to the Wilson Audio sound, I say go for it. Buying them used offers you an opportunity for what seems to be reasonable value. I suspect that you will not be disappointed.

Addressing your original question(s),
a) yes it is a good deal for Watt+Puppy 8sb) current stuff at this level are generally better but they come at a HUGE premium -- +26k is more like it:)!



For $6k you will have no problem re-selling them without taking a loss if you don’t like them.  I can’t tell you what you will like, but I can tell you that $6k for a mint pair of WP8 is a great deal.
