Seems legit to me.  Yes, he has a business and promotes it.  Don't have to watch or buy.

I have to say, a waste of time. Yeah, little conflict of interest going on here. Wilson designed a speaker differently than he would, not a big surprise. I have heard different Wilson speaker for decades. They sound great and are consistent in there sound. They are not for me... but I completely understand why they have such a huge following... because of the way they sound... not how they chart on paper or connect their filter. 

These are great speakers (I have heard many iterations of them) and it is reasonable that someone is going to power them with a high end audiophile amplifier capable of dealing with their impedance. 

I'd feel really bad if anyone saw this video and did not go down and hear them before writing them off.

 

 

Danny Hates every speaker that arent his. I dont trust that guy at all. He is tryin to sell upgrade parts. Wilson is a well known high end brand. The audacity to think he can fix them is hilarious

Isn't this a "review" by a competitor who mostly criticizes the design choices made by Wilson for the Watt/Puppy? 

No, it is not a review.  An unhappy Wilson owner sent the speakers to Danny.

That is how it goes and this is less a review than a personal discourse on one builder's preference on design.

So would you drop $27K on a choppy FR and accept that as a design preference?  The bad FR was duplicated by another respected reviewer.  That Wilson FR is not even close to what is considered industry standard +/- 3 dB.   

A Frequency Response curve shows if a speaker is accurate.  That curve is a mess and could not even be deemed a ":voicing" choice.
