Wilson Audio Sasha 2 vs Sophia 3
Hello Audiophiles,
How does the Sophia 3 (discontinued?) stack up to the Sasha 1 or 2. I've seen a threat on Sasha vs. Sophia, but...
I've recently auditioned the Sabrina and the Sasha 2. It was no comparison for me; the Sasha did everything I thew at it well, the Sabrina did some things quite well, and others not so well - couldn't deliver much impact or scale for me.
I'm trying to decide whether the Sophia 3 is closer to the Sasha or the Sabrina? I know it's in the middle but where?
14x21' audio room. ARC ref75 and Lumin T1 streamer. I have 1st/2nd reflection and base traps installed. Moving up from Focal 1027s.
Thanks for ANY opinions and inputs!!!

It's been awhile, but figured I'd do a brief update in case anyone stumbled upon this. System is now: Sashas Ref 3 pre Ref 75 amp Lumina T1 Transparent ultra cables @georgehifi I've really enjoyed the system with the 75 for a year. I did drop in a SimAudio Moon 860A just to see what the Sashas can do with more power. It exposed, as you produced, much more to the recordings. But, over all I'm a tube guy, and prefer my 75 over the bigger Moon. Having said that, I'm considering moving up to the ARC 150 now to get a bit more base grip on the edges without (hopefully) giving up all the rest - which is perfect for me. |
