Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars


Wonder what the impedance/-phase angle graph will look like on these puppies, looking at the amount of D'Agostino amps used to drive them, I'd say could be pretty evil.

jon 5912.... if you’re not interested then why comment? 
wilson has the assets to create anything they want whether it meets your requirements or not. you’re not possessing knowledge but rather opinion. 
you’re also reeking of class envy which is not attractive. 
@daveyf

when i’m tempted to post negatively, i mostly don’t hit ’send’. or delete it quickly if/when i do.

and really, it works like a charm. i pick my battles very carefully, and it’s extremely rare they involve my hobby. if i’m rattled i go listen to music. it's what i find i need from the hobby, an escape from all that strife. the forums typically help with that by allowing for rich interaction and even great friendships. but i avoid the dark parts.
this is fun.  You certainly know when you've touched a nerve.  I'm posting because I'm curious, obviously.  I don't have any special secret knowledge and I don't claim to.  Do I seem like I'm trying to be attractive?  At what point am I allowed to say I don't buy it?  850k, 850 trillion, when am I allowed to be skeptical?   
Does Wilson employ the best designer? Do they have the best tools or best facility for developing a state of the art product? It seems really unlikely to me. 

then you say....

I don't have any special secret knowledge and I don't claim to
so you know nothing, yet conclude it's unlikely they can develop a state of the art product.

and base that on.......absolutely.......nothing.

just trolling an expensive product you neither know about nor understand just because of the price.

sad.


@mikelavigne  Let's put it this way, at the forum in question, i had had enough of the non- level playing field that grew there over time. It was clear that the owners had an agenda...and that anyone who was not towing the line with their expectations, was to be silenced. While that may sit well with you, it sure does not with me. The last time I saw the 'guru' attack you with a blatant 'ad hominem' and get absolutely no push back from anyone ( you included) was pretty pathetic, IMO. You say you pick your battles carefully..to which I say...why bother doing that over there??  Another former member and local friend of mine on that forum gave me some good advice, just after he left that rats nest....he stated.."that place is not worthy of my time...why is it worthy of yours?" I believe he has a great point. 

Luckily over here there is ongoing moderation with no hidden agendas ( so far, lol).
