Post Subject: The Alexx, per Michael FremerPosted by Paul S on: 4/19/2017
This just in from May Stereophile: The first part of Fremer's roll-out of Wilson's new-ish Alexx tells us the economic reasons for this speaker's existence. Then there is naming of names of those involved in it's implementation. Then there is technical "justification". In a good move, I think, Wilson has gone back to paper drivers (except silk HF), though this was to no avail when I heard these speakers at T.H.E. Show, Newport, 2016, where the Alexx sounded bad from top to bottom. I guess Wilson fixed things for Fremer, because, I gathered, MF liked them better than his own Alexandria XLFs. Price of the Alexx? MF says, $109k. I guess the message is, better sound for 1/2 the money. Let's see how well these sell.
