Hi no, nothing about my current speakers are mentioned...the original poster is asking about Maxx 3s...I am giving my experiences with Maxx 3's since I owned them for a few years...and I stand by those comments entirely.

The Rockport's I now own are not a fair comparison given the price differential and the OP was curious about the Wilson's...
Unless one could get the Maxx 3 very reasonably, the improvements included in the Alexia would be where I'd go. The new tweeter in particular. The Sasha 2 has a variation of the new tweeter, which by most accounts is a step up from the one used in the Maxx 3 and Sasha 1.

While the Maxx3 would still provide the most powerful low end, whether or not that trumps a smoother upper midrange/high end is a personal choice.

I had the choice of Sashas, Alexias and Maxx 3 to replace my Watt Puppy 7 speakers. I think I will go with the Maxx 3. The Alexia and Sasha do indeed have newer drivers. I thought the Maxx 3 was the first to receive the updated midrange driver? I don't need the Coincident tweeter. Just last week I just bought a Mezzo center channel with the Titanium tweeter. I am pretty sure with the inclusion of the Maxx 3's The overall larger presentation will benefit my room which is 20x15. The WP/7's have worked well in the room, Maxx 3's even better!
I have Alexia in a 15x30 ft room. It fills the room perfectly with better high and mid than Maxx3.

You should give Alexia a good audition.
I've heard the Alexia's twice. The last occasion was two weeks ago. They sounded fantastic. It's just not what I want in my system. I need a slightly larger more dynamic speaker which the Maxx 3 is capable of doing over the Alexia's. My Watt Puppy 7's were a compromise for not being able to afford Maxx 2's at the time. Kids were still at home. Not the issue this time.
