Stitch,
I hope you talk not about Wilsons but about the cretins who write the stupid stories about them. Wilsons do what they do and what they do is OK. Sure the Wilsons, as anything else have own problems but those problems are never get pointed out by “critics”. Instead, as you can see in the Jacob Heilbrunn position, he invented the non-existing taking points, his myths, against whish he said something (honestly I do not read his explanation father then 3-4 words of each paragraph).
I know Wilsons well and believe I do understand how they sound. I spoke with a few people bout them and nether in my very critical perception of Wilsons nor in the comments of anybody who love of hate them I never heard what Mr. Heilbrunn presents as “myth”. Kahrma for instance cannot play loud. Everyone knows it and if a person disagrees with it then he might call the Kahrma’s disability to play loud as myth. However, you can’t call a myth soothe that no one take or aware about. That contradicts the whole concept of dealing with “myth”…
However in my reply, if to look deeper then one might recognize that there is a bigger wish to fry. If you look at the nature of Jacob Heilbrunn invented myths then I feel that there is a very credible reason to claim that Jacob is an Audio Moron and the people with whom he socialize as just audio-idiots if they made his to feel that the 3 myths that Jacob outlined are pubic myths. I see some fool feel that Romy The Cat “again” attacks somebody personally but there is nothing father from truth. I am sure that in his regular live Jacob is a wonderful son, father, husband, taxpayer and citizen. I do not judge or have business to judge the content of his character but I do judge the specific his experienced that deeply related to his judgments as a reviewer. If I charter a pilot for my private cruse then I would not care if he white, black, green, purple, gay, straight, republican, democrat, Mensa member or former military drill sergeant. However, if I learn that his definition of flying is to chase birds in sky and try to slice them with left propeller then I will consider many times before hire him. Can I call that this birds-chasing and the birds-slicing pilot is an idiot. How about if he is a member of a club club of the people that have the similar tendencies? OK, now we approach very close to what Jacob Heilbrunn said.
“The first myth is that Wilson is simply a rock ‘n roll speaker…. The second myth is that the Wilson tweeter is harsh and unrelenting… The third myth is that Wilson loudspeakers have a bloated or souped up midbass.” – who the hell says it?! Aren’t the people who bitch that Wilson can’t not play rock ‘n roll are audio-idiots by nature? If yes, then what Jacob Heilbrunn does arguing with them? Unless he is willing to score some point among idiots, making the idiotic contra-arguments…
