What can beat Wilson XVX for less money?


If you have heard xvx what speakers have you heard that are better for less money? Seems Jay just got XVX and can't help but wonder if there are speakers that perform better for example for $100k or less. Including used.

Demo anything of equal price from Magnepan IN YOUR ROOM.  If you don't like them, at least you demo'd the best.

Cheers!

I would prefer a JBL Paragon driven by Marantz classic tube gear:

JBL PARAGON D44000 SPEAKER SYSTEM Rare Early Model S/N:53 (150-4C/375/ ...

I would prefer a pair of JBL Everest II's actively bi-amped, it has high quality drivers like ALNICO woofers.

 

I ve also heard that the Alexx V is better thatn the XVX in many ways but the XVXs have larger scale. I’m very familiar with Alexx V and it is phenomenal but have not heard the XVX so this is speculation. There is a couple YouTubers that are showing the XVX but so far I haven’t been impressed. The XVX has so many drivers to line up that you could get some smearing if not setup perfect or in the right room.  I’d opt for the Alexx V for less money and maybe even beat the XVX?   I think the XVX has the older tweeter the Alexx V has the newer one.
