wilson wp8 v. maxx2

Keep the 7s at least until you can afford the Maxx. Too much of a sideways move to go from 7 to 8. If you liked the 7s before the 8 was released there is no reason not to like them now.

I have had the luxury of hearing both the Watt Puppy 8 and older Maxx's, many years ago. Both systems offer quite a bit. (Both well out of my means). I just heard the Watt Puppy 8 at the LA HI FI show, and can say it is truely special. It offers quite a bit of resolution, like it's older Max II brother, but doesn't go quite as deep. VERY LIQUID sound. In most rooms, unless you live in a mansion, the WP-8 will be plenty of foundation, (low end). It has been a long time since I've heard older Maxx's but If my memory serves my right the older incarnation of the Maxx offers slightly more dynamic presentation, yet not quite as focoused as the new WP-8. Hardly an easy choice, both off the hook outstanding choices for just about any listining space, particularly if you have the means to adorn them with an appropiate front end gear that can reveal you all that they have to offer,which seems that you have, particullarly the WP-8. The only thing that even came close to the WP-8's at the show was the outstanding Von S. VR 4, 5 and bigger. MBL's were incredible if you had 50grand and another quarter million in associated equipment. The cool thing about the WP-8's, was that they were on a mid-priced dream system of under 100K. I can't remember how much though. Best regards in your most fun adventure, Dan:)

Agree with Narrod. I have the WP7's (upgraded from the 6) thru McIntosh MCD1000/MDA1000+MC501's. Indeed the next step would be the Maxx 2,s
