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...

Dear Romy,
I made a simple yet very effective modification to 7 which transformed its sound to a much higher level,
it has been done by placing viberation reduction devices between WATT and PUPPYs.
I can send you details if you think its interesti...

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...

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...

…how do not spread Ketchup to all food you eat.
The regular readers of my site know that I very seldom pay compliment to the audio reviewers. I do it because they are mostly unspeakably Morons and their writing/thinking is mostly primitive and brain...

[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...

Actually is not mystery but juts economics. BTW, the large Wilsons are I believe are not juts ported but so called fourth order design. With a sealed enclosure of the identical size the Grand Slam / Alexandria would go in Stereophile category of spea...

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

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 ...

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...

maybe what is mentioned as being some myths is closer to what at least used to be pretty close to the actual truth?Wilson speakers are pricy, expensive, un-affordable, take your pick. So maybe some of the commentators about Wilsons never had one ...

el`Ol,it is quite fascinating how well you depicted (listening to WP 8!) what I heard, listening to some 5.xI.E. "some characteristic shining or radiance probably induced by the breakup of carbon-doped paper cones in combination with the anorganic-pa...

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...

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...

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....

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...
