I have heard WP8s with CJ equipement and PCS digital front end............nice. Very real. My only gripe was the room a little to small. I imagine in a 20 by 20 ft room the WP8s would be able to stretch its legs and soundstage like nobody's business. I am sure there are speakers out there that sound similar for a lower price. But at that moment,those custom painted Porsche Red WP8s were the best speakers in the world.

I Like W/P 8 more than MAX and Alegxandra.
It developed many years and i think it's quite good for long listening sessions.
very natural , easy and lifelike sound.
I think i need no more for listening

Great Review and thanks for taking your time to share it with us. Makes the hobby even more fun. I really love my W/P 8's also, but be ready for all kinds of replies. Even some that hate the Wilson sound.

Amir, normally WP8s are set up to have a small sweetspot. Did you tell the dealer during the Wilson setup to widen the sweetspot? I have talked to a dealer in Dallas who stated WP8s have some of the biggest sweetspots for a two channel speaker.

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
