Lamm M1.2s and Wilson Alexias...
 
I've been looking for reviews that feature the Alexias and the Lamm M1.2s, but can't seem to find 'em anywhere. Any of you have any experience with or read any reviews of the aforementioned?

Has Marc Mickelson reviewed the Alexia's?

I was on his website - www.theaudiobeat.com - last night, and didn't see any equipment reviews for the Alexias.

Check with Chuck aka (SRT-10 Viper). I believe he was powering his Sasha's with Lamm. He then swapped Lamm for Momentum's and Alexia's. He may have some insight.

Gotcha. Thanks.

You should suggest he categorize his reviews .....

I agree with that.

I had Lamm 1.2's with my Sasha's and loved them... When I bought my Alexia's I traded in the Lamm's for the Momentum's. I recieved the amps prior to the speakers so never had a chance to try the Lamm's with the Alexia's. I'm sure they would sound great.

I have raised this question before but with a minimum impedence of .9 @ 80 Hz how will Lamm's control the woofers? Apparently Lamm's have a low impedence rating so they should do just fine. I think Alexias may be finicky with certain amps due to this very low minimum impedence. This remains to be seen.

I think I'm gonna make an appt with my local Wilson/Lamm dealer and take a listen.

No, I'm not in the market for momentum amps!! I'm actually attempting to publicly persuade myself of the matter. Would you mind telling me the sonic differences you experienced between the M1.2 & the Momentums?

Talk to me about your Alexia's. What Wilson's did you own prior? I've got 1st Generation Sasha's & am considering upgrading. I think the Alexia 1s or the Sasha 2s are the options at the moment. Any thoughts?

I won't go so far to say the Alexia Series 2 is a totally different speaker than the original, but the differences are genuinely significant - easily enough to give (very) serious consideration. Otherwise I might be tempted by the Sasha DAW over the Alexia 1.

I had Sasha one's, then two's, and now Alexia 1. Each one was a big upgrade. The Sasha 2 is a definite upgrade over the one, in terms of the sound quality. It has a lot better tweeter-to-midrange integration and sounds more cohesive in that critical range. I never thought anything was wrong with the Sasha one tweeter until I heard that new silk dome, but it's much more refined.

The Alexia is yet another bump up, with the same strengths and sound as the Sasha 2 but with greater scale and soundstage. To me, it kind of wraps all around you. I never got that from the Sasha 2 in the same sense.

I've heard Alexia 2 but I am not feeling there is enough of an improvement there to warrant an upgrade at this time.

Thank you, gentlemen...

Only at shows and not with Lamm. Wolf continues to change their sound.
