OTOH, Wilson Alexia's have really wow'ed me, though I know they're slightly colored and less resolving by comparison.

So I'm not convinced that 'wow factor' is necessarily inversely proportional to accuracy as a rule, but if it was I would definitely need to question whether I wanted it as a prime requisite.

To that extent there are similarities with digital vs analogue or solid state vs tubes.
