What can beat Wilson XVX for less money?

MBL 101 X-treme 

Any listener, not caring about what the musician ( s ) intended, tells me all I need to know about the listener. Good luck with that, and Enjoy ! MrD.

I've heard a variety of Wilson speakers including the XVX, Alexx 5s, SashaX and so on.

I have Sonus faber (my third set) so I have my preferences.  The best combination of sound for me was ARC with Sasha X (versus D'Agostino with XYX, Alexx 5 with Martin Logan or Jeff Roland).

So it's possible and it may only be to the ears of the beholder...

@mrdecibel Thanks! Sounds really great at 100db :) So does Beggars Banquet!
