What can beat Wilson XVX for less money?

Nailed it.

+1 to that.  Concerts seems to either have terrible speakers, the volume is far to loud, or terrible acoustics.  We typically only go to only certain venues because they get it right.  Otherwise, why pay the several or many hundreds for a concert.  

Infinity IRS V’s I personally think would blow the doors 

off any Wilson Speakers

@ozzy62. To take a punt on something is an English colloquialism for taking a chance or a gamble on something - hence "punter" is a synonym for "gambler".

Regarding the topic itself, Alexx Vs are absolutely fabulous speakers but they do not have the scale of a Chronosonic.

However, an Alexx V in the right sized room leaves very little to be desired.

Bose 901 version 5. Put aluminum foil on the equalizer fuse and the speakers go to 11.
