Where would you go after Wilson WP7?

Not sure what your budget is, but here are 2 speakers in the same approximate price range that I think would be an upgrade over what you currently have. The new Magico S5 speakers and the new Rockport Avior speakers. Both of these have the same approximate foot print as your Watt Puppy 7 speakers. These 2 speakers will sound different in comparison to each other so it will be a matter of personal preference.

Thanks very much guys for the thoughtful responses!!

Lol yes I have had a hearing test recently. I have lost some high freq. I can hear up to about 14.5kh. Too many years shooting skeet. M sbl meter reads at times 103 peaks but the norm is around 100db. However that's only for rock, volume is much less for Aron Copland :)

The HTS 7.1 does allow pure per-amp mode. I do not know how good it is though. The source is a pc running Sonos playing apple lossless though a Cullen modified zp90 feeding a PS Audio DAC. Maybe I can get a shop to allow me to audition per-amps. Issue is I have a PS3, CD player, and satellite all hooked up .

I did see Wilson Maxx2 listed for less than 19k. Tempting but i bet too much for the room.

"Can another speaker sound better given the smallish room"
The above replies were appropriate given the OP`s question and concerns.I believe most are aware of the 'multiple' variables that impact one`s system.

Hi Ojdeteos,

The Alexandria 2 retails for about 165K...and you can definitely bargain to have an original Alexandria Series 1 which was upgraded to Series 2...which sounds the same) for about 55K.

AudioOracle,

I agree...from an upgrade standpoint, my last suggestion earlier above was to consider an ARC Ref 3 or 5...far less costly than a big speaker upgrade...and in that room, one might start to create some further magic. One to consider for the OP.

If you like wilson, then obvious choice is sasha, it is a great improvement from
w/p series, maxx would be to big...

THIS! It's easily the
most logical choice. I've heard the WP7s and Sashas in extended auditions. The
Sashas pick up precisely where the WP7s leave off, with more realistic tonal
balance, truer midrange, tighter bass, better dynamics--you name it--at about
the WP7's original price. It's a big leap ahead in coherence, which was always the
W/P's weakness compared to the rest of Wilson's line.

Also +1 about the Maxxes. Way too much speaker for a 16' x 9' room. In fact,
your room size is borderline Sophia/Sasha territory. The Sasha W/P will give you
everything you're looking for. It's finally fully competitive with the Maxx and
Alexandria in terms of cohesiveness and overall goodness, better suited for a
room this size.
