Wilson Audio Haters


I've always wondered why there are so many people out there, that more than any other speaker manufacturer, really hate the Wilson line. I own Maxx 2's and also a pair of Watt Puppys. They are IMHO quite wonderful.

Why does Wilson get so much thrashing?

Quiz for all on this thread:
If a man is standing in the corner muttering to himself, do you engage him or walk away?
I was able to listen to a set of Sasha Series 2 and also a set of Alexx speakers today. I personally thought the Sasha's were better. I was picking up a little hum on the Alexx speakers that I didn't notice on the SS2's. The 2 systems were not identical so there could have been some other factor that was causing the noise, however, I still liked the all around feel and look of the Sasha's more. There were a few bass notes that I noticed on the Alexx over the Sasha, I think due to the 2 different size woofers. But overall I enjoyed the Sasha's listening experience more. If I could take home a set today regardless of price it would be a set of Sasha Series 2's. 

As a note I'm still pretty new to the Audiophile program so my input might not be warranted to a full scale reviewer. 
dustin. If you were 'picking up hum' -- the chances it was coming from the Wilson Audio
loudspeakers was "infinitesimally" small. Wilson Audio is 'fanatical' about quality control.
Hum whose, source is a loudspeaker, is virtually unknown;even in cheaper brands.
Nice post Dustin.I have only heard the Sabrina's, but their presentation got me interested in Wilson speakers.

You talking about that fella with the Tara Labs thread?
