Alexia versus Sasha II versus Sasha I
Hi Guys... it has been a while since I have posted here. I have been enjoying my Sasha I's for a number of years now. I'm looking for advice on what differences people are hearing between Sasha I, Sasha II, and Alexia as I have the upgrade bug and am currently trying to sell my Sasha's to finance the next upgrade into newer Wilson technology!

I am a Sasha II owner with Alexia on the way. I'll post my impressions when the Alexia's arrive.

Thanks. What did you have before sasha II?

I just went from Sasha 1 to 2. Main difference is that the treble is smoother, less fatiguing, and blends better with the mid to make voices seem more seamless and realistic. I hear no difference in bass. They need to be toed in a bit more than the Sasha 1, for some reason. It's a great improvement though. Gets you pretty close to alexia. Almost makes it a "bargain", lol! What equipment and wires are you using? |
There is a review of the Sasha 2 in HiFi News. The reviewer reaches the same conclusion as Marc - the 2s are excellent.

I plan to upgrade to this in time but you only generally hear positive things about current models. I certainly dont find the treble fatiguing with my Sophia 2 and I've not read this observation previously. |

I am using a Theta Casablanca III HD preamp with extreme Dacs along with an Electrocompaniet AW250R solid state amp and Transparent Ultra MM2 interconnects/cables and various Transparent higher end power cords. I also have a couple of Transparent PIMM power conditioners and a Transparent PIR power conditioner. For critical listening I have moved to computer based MacBook Pro USB out through a Transparent Reference cable into my Theta extreme Dac and I use Audirvana on my MacBook for playback of my HD music. I'm using an M2 Tech USB to Coax converter. I watch a lot of movies as well so the Theta is very versatile for me! |
