Wilson Sophia III vs Sasha

Thanks for all the advice. Based on the feedback I will look into room treatment and a better transport. I haven't heard significant differences with transports and would appreciate a place to start below 4K. I've already had home trails of Transparent Audio Ultra, Kimber Kable, and I concluded that Silver Cable provided me more of what I wanted.

I had them set-up by a really good dealer in Austin, TX. They completely disappear and have great imaging. I'm just trying to see what I can improve.

If you live in Southern California go to Brooks Berdan in Monrovia, CA. If not give them a call they are experts on Wilsons and would be happy to discuss the differences in the Wilson lineup. Both speakers are good but their is more to be had with the Sashas. They are more open and have better detail. Happy Holidays.

Rcred1,

I worked directly with Art Noxon at ASC (Acoustic Sciences). Since my room is close to square with an odd shaped bay at the rear, there were still a couple of modes at 32 and 62 Hz that the traps were unable to smooth sufficiently. That's why I bought the PARC. My dealer came over with Rives' room correction software and a real time analyzer and was able to reduce those modes significantly. All of this will certainly improve those attributes that you deem important.

By the way, do you live in Austin and is the dealer to whom you refer Ne Plus Ultra? If so, then we have a lot in common. Drop me a note and if you'd like, arrange to come over and listen.

I concur with all of the above. You already have a good DAC. Instead of buying a new transport, go with a computer? Quality to price, they probably make the best transports out there and cost little, relatively speaking.

I heard both and considered the Sasha at my home after trying Sophia IIIs to get a little more bass. After considering the possible need for extra amplification and cable I choose to go with 2 JL-113s subs instead. I spent less than i would have to swap up to Sasha and got way more extended and quality bass. I am extremely happy with speaker set-up. Marc
