Wilson vs BW, the hassidic way !
 
Now, I have a proof !!
Hassidim in Anvers, Belgium, don't only cut diamonds and study the Talmud.
They are also in High End Hi Fi business !!
I thought our hobby could qualify as "AVODA ZARA" ( "Adoring idoles")...
Now I feel better !!
Cheers and enjoy this video : YouTube - Alpha, B&W Signature Diamond Vs Wilson Audio Sophia 2.: YouTube - Alpha, B&W Signature Diamond Vs Wilson Audio Sophia 2.

Jérôme,
Thanks for that - it assuages Catholic guilt too! :eek:

The Sophia 2's would blow away the Signature Diamonds (IMO) given where the two models are on each company's product hierarchy, but it looked like they were in the same spot because of space more than for comparison purposes.

I should have stopped in there when I was staying in Brussels a couple years back. That store looks like a place you could hang out at for an afternoon for sure.

The Signature Diamonds with the right gear will not be blown away the Sophia 2's.

I lived near Antwerp from the end of 97 to the middle of 99. I somehow missed the hi end audio stores. Maybe I spent too much time with the food.
