It said that no one ever lost money investing in the idiocy of American consumers. Which company emblemifies the American audio consumption better then Wilson Audio? The Moore's observation, that for some stupid reasons is being called ”law”, sug...

Looks like Wilson hit the ground running about 20 Dec. 2016, with a flurry of quickie "reviews". Here's a link to the Absolute Sound roll-out/"review":http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/first-listen-to-the-new-wilson-audio-modular-monitor-wamm...

A year or so ago (I do not know exactly when it started as I but audio publication irregularly) I have see that Wilson Audio begin to advertise their new loudspeakers as the design inspired by David Wilson’s revelation after he was sitting at...

Here is an interesting brain exercise for somebody who does not feel that it “deviated into an area outside the intent of this site”…
Pretend that you are David Wilson and you run a company that has some following and marketing success. You in...

Hi Romy,I've been reading GSC for some time, because I hope to find and learn some different audio perspectives. Untill now I never posted anything because of my total ignorance about horn speakers. But i've heard some wilson audio's a couple of time...

I stopped yesterday in Borders at lunch and looked through the June’s Stereophile. It had Wes Philips review of the Watt/Puppy 8. The writing was below any criticism - it was not review but rather the typical product release drumming. I do not ...

There is a young new “reviewer” Jacob Heilbrunn who spread his “wisdom” about Wilson speakers:

the guy is so off the way that it funny, apparently the big dogs gave a popp...

I think correct positioning the watt puppy and maxx model in room is not easy and each time i listened to them i sensed a bloated sound, I guessed bloated sound refer to acoustics. i know these model drivers are not fast but i guessed in a good room ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]... mostly idiots and Lamm cronies...The caT[/quote]I am guilty. I own ML2.1 :-) But modified. And I use it with a 99dB Speaker....I listened to these ML3 amps for a longer time, owner System, no demo. The problem in gene...

Frank Berryman posted an article at his site about his auditioning of Alexia Loudspeaker. http://www.ultrahighendreview.com/auditioning-the-new-wilson-audio-alexia-loudspeakerI do not how about you but after reading the article I feel that it said ve...

There is a very minor percentage of what David is telling that
I am not exactly agree. Mostly it has to do with some simplifications and shortcuts
David took, avoiding the phenomena of judgment maturation and the degree of precision
with which the...

This was our big discussion, the big Lamm / Wilson room, the sound was perfect in a sense that was absolutely quiet everything where it should go, the tone of the instruments was perfect, the soundstage was perfect the instruments w...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Yes yes yes .... Lamm Industries is a BUSINESS... This is abundantly clear whenever I order tubes from them! [/quote]
Hm, I did not know that you use any Lamm electronics. In fact I just realized that I have absolu...

[quote user="el`Ol"]Here is the link:http://www.rank-concept.deI have no experience with the Lamm ML-series, I just listened to an M-series hybrid amp combined with the Watt/Puppy 8. This performance was a single fake (though a pleasant one). I can´t...

The May 2018 Stereophile helps to roll out Wilson's new, "smaller" Yvette speaker. Though I did not get much from the review I was interested to read that Wilson (finally) intends this "smaller" speaker to be qualitatively like its big speakers, and ...

David Wilson says about the WAMM:
Atkinson: What range does the electrostatic unit cover?
Wilson: It operates above 5kHz. And it operates at a very low level. It functions primarily to provide part of the leading edge of high-frequency transients....

You know in this site it's a cult to knock heads of "big brands" which is not a bad thing considering the huge propaganda machine working for them in press, but sometimes I feel it's being done just for fun...Armen

I twice had the opportunity to listen to a Wilson: The Puppy 8 combined with a Lamm power amp and the latest Maxx with Soulution electronics. Both times my impression was that there is some characteristic shining or radiance probably induced by the b...

How Wilson sounds:Pressure caused by non-linear bass squeezed through narrow port holes.Shining caused by the papery upper mids of a too high crossed 6.5" midwoofer.Sparkle caused by the metal ringing of a titanium tweeter.What Wilson does:Use st...

it would certainly have Musikverein element in it for the beginning. Let's say the hall is full of audience, the curtains are closed and players are tunning their instruments, they start to play while curtains are opening then peopl...

large Wilsons driven by first generation of Lamm ML2. It is important to know that it should be large Wilson, starting from Grand Slams, the small Wilsons are not interesting. I did not hear newest large Wilsons but I ...

If Lamm ML2 is not enough good for bass you can use crossover and add a wilson passive subwoofer.Lamm ML2 will do his job better if you use a high power amplifier for wilson subwoofers.this approach will also reduce the Port noise of wilson alexandri...

I bought TAS magazine yesterday, second time this year. It is year afar yeas the more boring and boring to read Robert Harley. All his massaging of Reality and try to put the industry’s problems and idiocy into a mask of rationale and cheap sophistic...

There is , of course, nothing misterious in the ported speakers and the sound exactly meets your description above.The mistery for me is the decision of the designers to use bass reflex.The large image can be, of course due t...

[quote user="Paul S"]I think it is fair to say that no big speakers are going to "work" up to their potential without some serious effort expended in setting them up. IMO, this is no small matter, and Wilson obviously agrees,&nbs...
|
Romy,no, I am not one of those who bash Wilson. I respect his work, his business and his products. I listened to some of his models a few times, but this here is about reviewers...I am a little bit frustrated. I am a customer who want to go ahead, wh...
