Wilson audio Maxx best amp match???

Wilson Audio? Nashville

Murillo...I don't think your observation that Wilson only showcases the Maxx's with SS (Krell or others) is accurate. Here are blog entries from a few audio shows showing the Maxx 3s being driven by tubes:

Hi Murillo

This is big problem, we have a friend is with this problem. The best thing is to listen from others , should we contruct a sytem based in speaker or in amplifier?
I prefer to choose the speaker, so the amplifier is more easy. With a lot of speakers in the market ...

Best amp/Wilson combination I ever heard was the VTL Siegfried Reference mono's driving the Alexandria X-2. Next best was an all-tube Audio Research chain driving the Maxx 3's. Wilsons like tubes, especially well regulated tube amps with wide bandwidth. My favorite is the high powered, highly regulated VTLs for either the Maxx's or Alexandria's.

Dirtydenny - Audio Buys in Nashville carries Wilson, and they provide some pretty good discounts.

Murillo - I have heard Wilson Sophia 2, Maxx 3, and Sasha with McIntosh (SS and tube), VTL MB450, Musical Fidelity, and Lamm hybrids. I have not heard the Krell. My preference is Lamm M1.2 Hybrids which to me have the best virtues of both tubes and solid state. Note that I own Sashas, not Maxx. From what I understand, the Sashas are harder to drive than Maxx.

Do some research on what people at the Wilson factory own, you will find that many own Lamm and that Vladimir Lamm owns Wilsons (when he could own any speaker he wanted).
