Pass Labs Amplification & Wilson Speakers

Thanks guys for the response. TJ, it seems like you have a near perfect audio system (like to hear that). How big is your room? Do you have wall to wall carpet or area rugs in front of the speakers? Mark, do you notice any major sonic differences between the X250.5 and the X250.8?

Mark, you have a fantastic listening room. What is the sonic advantage to toe in the speakers in the room?

Tommy
The X250.8 has better control of the bass, and is more dynamic with better imaging then the X250.5. The X250.5 has a more liquid mid-range and tube like sound. Overall I prefer the X250.8, but both worked very well with my Sasha's. If you have a very damped listening room the X250.8 would be the better choose as the X250.5 bass is deep but is not as well controlled and can sound a bit soft.

Wilson recommends toeing-in the speakers it provides better imaging and resolution in the mid and upper ranges. You toe them in to you ideal listening position and with the Alexia's you can adjust the tweeter and mid-range to your listening height which makes a difference.

Tommy,
I was "away" for the holidays and just catching up.
Thank you for the compliment about our system - but are we ever satisfied? I think not.
What really matters is the enjoyment we get from listening to music, and the degree our systems can brings us that.
Our room is 16' wide 24' long. We have hard wood floors and an area rug about 1' from the perimeter of the room.
Only good wishes, TJF.
