One suggestion for video would be a tutorial on the WASP setup. Sure, best would be to let a trained professional do the work, but in those cases that might not be possible it would be great! Covering the basics in positioning and toe-in etc.. tips and trix

Thanks!
I am so glad that you like the different online sites. It has been fun to put up and watch.

My hopes with the online sites was to create more of a "family feel" when it comes to Wilson Audio, and give people the opportunity to not only get fresh ideas and information straight from Wilson Audio, but also to open up a direct line to Wilson to help answer any questions or concerns. People have always been able to call the factory, yet I am the type of person where I feel a little intimidated to call a manufacture. However, talking/communicating via a computer is very easy for me. I am sure there are other people just like me, and so I wanted them to feel more comfortable.

I agree with your idea, especially when there is a used market out there, and there have been questions to how to set the different speakers up. I do hope that they create something like that. Would be a very useful tool!

I've got to agree with wakkz & PHC1 here. The brief snippet of Peter and John at CES talking about placement in an earlier video was pretty neat. More please.

Just have to add I noticed they are using the Classe CT-800/SSP-800! I noticed it when they showed one of the store reps adjust the volume in the video.

Another video was uploaded to Wilson Audio's YouTube page!

This one is a little different. I have mentioned my brother, Daryl, many times on this forum. He is the one that put together the video of my home theater set-up as well as helped with the install. He also has taken photos of systems going through the different building stages that some of you own. He is one of my best friends, and such an inspiration to me!

Here is an intro to this new video:

Like all of Dave and Sheryl Lee's children, youngest son Daryl participated in the family business as a boy, helping launch a fledgling audio company in the Wilson's garage. Years later, reaching adulthood, Daryl left home, lived for a time in the desert, learned and taught yoga. Yet something prompted him to return, intent upon mastering the art and business of making world class loudspeakers from the man who had become more than his father, the man who was now his mentor, guide, and co-worker.

FYI, he is the youngest SON, yet I am the youngest child in the family. The only girl in the family. There is even a photo with me in it (since I too helped twist wires as a kid!)

Enjoy!
