Has anyone yet heard the Wilson Sophia 3 ?

I just got a pair and am using them with a ARC Ref 110 amp. Amazing!

I had a chance to hear them recently for about an hour with one of my favorite artists on CD. The electronics was NAIM (solid state). I liked the speakers a lot, good soundstage, good resolution and it really felt like the singer was in the room with us. I felt that something was a bit off but couldn't place what it was; my wife thought it was the vocals, though on subsequent listening she was less sure. My understanding is that the should work well with tubes as long as they are around 20W or so.

Thewho, what other speakers did you audition before the Sophia 3s? What ultimately led you to choose the Wilsons?

I spent some time listening to the Sacha's and really liked them, however, they are out of my range, the Sophia seemed like a logical choice. I have always liked Wilson products and the company. I have always heard that ARC, Transparent and Wilson go very well together. I also really like the styling of the new Sophia which is important as they are in our living room. Another thing I like about Wilson is I know they will be here in five years, I do not think that can be said for all high end speaker companies. I have had them for about a month now and they are living up to all expectations. Hope that helps.
