Wgerman, I tried to place it and it had good sweet spot but the room had not enough space to fill the room with breathing strings.
Wilson has very very good sweet spot in both vertical and horizontal

Gerrym5, every body have a taste and i think the only important thing is our taste not other opinion about components. enjoy
I find the world of the WP8 interesting....it was the speaker that I stronger considered going to after the Sophia2s...but I just couldn't get comfortable with the musicality of the 8s...I actually preferred the continuity/wholeness of cloth that the Sophia 2 offered...but ultimately went in another direction...I am not a Wilson hater...love lots of things they do...but the more I focused on the music....rather than the reproduction of sound...led me away from Wilson...if I was to return...it would either be the Sophia 2...or Maxx2...not the WP8

John, I think W8 is better than MAXX and Sophia in some respect that finaly i prefer It to MAXX and Sophia 2.
Tell me about your listening condition when you listened to W8?
W8 need over 400 hours for break-in and is so sensitive to setup. it need careful matching to room and other parameters.

Good Stuffs need more care for giving it's all potential.
Enjoy
Amir57bs, clearly I was being too defensive about people that might just "bash" on Wilson Audio speakers. Negative opinions are fine. I generally like more detailed discussion, positive or negative, not just the bashing. That's all. And, look how wrong I was - no negative or bashing postings so far.

In this month's Stereophile, Wes Phillips review on Hansen Audio's Prince V2 speakers has a good discussion on comparative strong and weak points between the Prince V2's and W/P 8's. Its the best explanation by example why many people don't care for Wilson Audio tweeters. That's Wes's (others) taste - their right. BTW, I really like the Hansen's too, but I'm very happy with my W/P 8's with Lamm 2.1's.

Gerrym5, I agree you and i like the logical space that all share their view with no bash.
I just like Wilson 8 and i will be happy if any body tell me about weak and strong points of WP8.
Enjoy
