Does the wilson sophia 1 sound good only with perf

I was too quick in my judgement of Sophia 1. After further listening i have found that they can bring a solo classical piano right into the room. A small jazz group the same. Dynamics are very good. At low listening levels the best i have ever heard. Voices have feeling in them i have not heard before. That about says it for me.

Great news!!! Glad you got them dialed in. Enjoy!!!

'Badly recorded music sounds bad on any speaker. Fact of life, Grasshopper.'

Someone would have to have very average (but expensive) run of the mill speakers/ancillaries, that are obviously not up to scratch for a fleeting comment like that to be true.

For all of you that want to give Pkoh70 a hard time... He speaks the truth. I have auditioned the Sophia 2 and 3 (same system/ room as thiel 3.7). The 3 is a lot better but still behind the thiel 3.7s. I have not heard all the speakers Pkoh70 listed but his "reviews" are always spot on.

IMO the only selling point of the Sophia line is the big bold bass. It is bettered in all other aspects by other speakers in the same price range. I actually like the Sophias but not at their asking price, maybe used.
