Wilson Sasha 2 or Alexia for small room 10' x 17'?

Please Grpu just stop retorting, the only reason I keep on posting is to defend my position, in the face of your continued attacks, and to clairfy what I said, and for the record I agree this is a Wilson thread.

I am happy to move on are you? Please don't type anything, just lets get this thread back on track and assist Cupracer with his setup if he needs any additional guidance on how to setup and voice his Wilsons and what to do if he has any serious bass nodes and room loading issues.

My Dad can beat up your Dad !!!!!!!!

Sure but what if your dad was George the Animal Steele?

All kidding aside we all need to tone down the rhetoric no one here needs to be the self appointed guardian of good taste, and people should stop attacking other people that post. 

The only true troll I have truly found on this site is the luantic Monitor audio guy on one of the other Wilson polls with his Tru Sound bull puckey.

If he has some real propreitary new audio magic trick then patent it and then sell it, when I hear such ridiculous claims and all else is boat anchors makes me cringe. 

Monitor makes good speakers, I think the Platinium product did get a bit overlooked, but they are very fine speakers, so are Wilson, Magico, Focal, Kharma, B&W, KEF, Vandersteeen etc, almost any suitable well designed high end audio product, will offer a fantastic sound, it is up to the listener to determine which product they feel is the best for their tastes, needs, budgets etc. 

As I said in other posts, the store I champion and work with and occasionaly at,  Audio Doctor sells many different brands of speakers, because people like different things, while there are other dealers who "sell" other brands of speakers but in reality are loyal to only one and push that brand with slavish devotion, our approach is that one brand or line of products will rarely satisfy all. 

My only issue with some of these threads and posters is their slavish devotion to a brand, I think of all of these products as tools, and if I can find a better tool I am more then willing to replace brand X with brand Y.

Audiotroll:
You want members come to my place and listen to my system, go to Audiodoctor and listen to your system and vote on which is better?  Are you insane? Guess what, nobody cares. tpreaves hit the nail on the head.
It's 996Cupracer's thread, not ours.
Once again, my apologies to him. And yes Audiotroll, I agree--we can and should both move on. But, wait--- I see you already have. Why just this morning, having tired of selling here, you've moved on to a thread where the OP asked for help for what he said had "come down to 2 choices" for a dac-- the Chord Dave or the Ayre QX5.
For those still enjoying (not) this thread, here is Audiotroll's response to that very specific question:

"I got no skin in the game but know of and have heard both of these companies fine products, both have some good strengths, we used to sell Chord and do not now sell them so we have no skin in the game nor do we sell Ayre.
There is one advantage that the Chord Dave has the Aqua Hifi Dac have that the Ayre doesn't.
The Chord is FPGA based and is easy to update, the Forumla is designed on all separate boards and Aqua has shown they can and will offer reasonably priced updates, I haven't heard the Forumla but we have the Lascala and it is excellent I haven't heard the Forumla I will say that the Lascalla is excellent. So one thing I would ask with the Ayre, is how easy would it be to upgrade?
Aside from sound quality, ease of upgrading, in the turbulent world of digital is a very good thing.
For those on the East Coast we, Audio Doctor have one of the largest collections of digital gear on display: we display: Lumin, Aurender, Mytek, Aqua, EMM Labs, Light Harmonic, Baetis, Cary Audio, T+A, Nad, Naim, Nuprime and a few others. For those who haven't heard the Light Harmonic Davinci is amazing and we have one of these rare dacs!

I ask anyone still here:
Does  Audiotroll's approach to the OP's query seem familiar?

Audiotroll:If you hijack anymore threads, you'll be placed on the no fly list with the Department of Homeland Security. As for your request to drop this back and forth here, I agree, let's stop now. It's all good. 

Ohlala, the Sashas and Sabrinas were heard in the same room which was to my eye about 22' x 24'.
I did not have the opportunity to hear the
Evette. Both dealers near me did not have them to demo. I did however prefer the separate box design for tweeter and mid that the Sasha had compared to the single box of the Evette. Both dealers did not try to guide me in that direction ......possibly because they did not have any for me to hear. It would be interesting to hear and compare the 3 speakers

Thank you. I have only heard the Sabrinas in the hotel rooms where even at very close range, they were coherent, open and pleasant. Easy to think they will not sound good in a larger room next to Sasha. Given the way Wilson markets dealer setup, the onus should be on your dealer to position them to sound good in your room. Congrats on your purchase.
