Wilson's if they were apples to apples in price. The dealer told me that he had not had anyone buy anything other than the Sabrina in that price point. Good luck in your search

Hi - in the States the Sabrina seems to be, what the 802 is in Europe - absolut "best buy" product at under 20k.
Yes, you are absolutely correct, were the price even close, I would pay a lot more attention to Wilson Audio.
As value matters to most people though, this is an issue.
Should I actually consider (some) Wilsons to be far superior to B&W, I might try to buy in the states and have them imported myself... in that case I`ll need a reliable dealer in the US. Still finding out about the differences though... Sabrina and Sophia are very beautiful products, but do not make big enough a gain in quality over the 802Diamond to me, to justify such a step... it`ll probably have to be something along the lines of the Yvette - and then I`ll have to compare to the D3 Series...
