Wilson or Kharma

I am fairly familar with both speakers- I like the kharma's a lot BUT it doesn't sound like what your looking for. The 3.2 has amazing bass for what it has(i.e. articulate, detailed, body), but it is not the last word in bass reinforcement- the Wilson would have my nod in that regard. Have you considered possibly the 1.0 midi-grand? it seems like it may be more on the same price plane as the Wilson and will have substantially more bass output due to the 12" driver. If you were comparing midi grand to the W/P7 it would depend what YOU as a listener want. The wilson will be more in your face and seemingly faster, with laser like precision in the imaging, along with greater bass output(volume). The kharma will bring you closer to the music, they have an almost sureal soundstage- once you've heard them set up properly you'll understand what I am talking about, fine tuning to the room(along with the right placement) will make this speaker sound MUCH different- its overall tonal balance/accuracy is amazing. You really must listen for yourself to make this sort of decision, also your room is unusual with its dimensions, I am sure it will sound great, its just a little shorter then most rooms that use this type of speaker (assuming you have the speaker's on the short wall firing down the length of the room). 15 feet is a great width to work with, however 19 is a hair on the short side for these full range dynamic speakers- even with that minor short coming I am sure when you get either speaker set up properly it will sound fantastic!

Good luck.

If you don't mind staying with large http://www.vmpsaudio.com/rmx.htm these hi-bred's are the best of both worlds at around $10,000. They love tubes and have bass down to 20HZ.

They are not my cup of tea,but i still prefer WP7.

Your Martin Logan Prodigy play lower than Kharma 3.2.

There is, in my mind, very little comparison to make here. I have spent a good bit of time with WP7s in a close friend's system and have owned the 3.2crms in the past. The Kharma's are very VIBRANT, immensely musical speakers. The soundstage is larger-than-life and detailed, and tonally they are phenomenal with good tube amps. That having been said, I was surprised at the bass you do get with them (so is everyone else consistently), but you don't get the lowest of the low bass. Kharma now offers subs built specifically to complement the 3.2s, though, and they are supposed to make the system completely amazing. If low end is critical and you are not happy with the impact of the 3.2s in your room, you can always add the sub (or better yet a pair) at a later timepoint. I never got around to it before I had to sell mine, so can't comment directly.

WP7s are better than most speakers out there. They tend to highly polarize people though. A lot of people love them and a lot hate them. You absolutely need to spend the money to listen to them before buying (an onviously good rule in general too, but essential here). I personally like them a lot but would never buy a pair with Kharmas as an alternative.

The choice is hands down for my own personal tastes, which seem to be somewhat similar to what I gather yours are. Kharmas let you just enjoy the musical experience in a way that most other speakers miss.

Just let me know if you have any questions, etc. By the way, I have nothing commercial to do with audio equipment. I work in dermatologic biopharm, so this is just a passion/hobby for me, but one I've spent a LOT of time on it over the years.

Good luck!
