Congrats Marc ..... beautiful pair of speakers. IMO, the living room aesthetic factor had jumped multiple levels up. Always favored the Dark Titanium paint on Wilson speakers.

Great! Nice set up.

Just looking at the speaker position, a question comes to my mind. It's just a friendly suggestion that I maybe can improve your sound, nothing else. Have you tried to move the speaker more together and further towards you from the back wall? If not I would certainly try that. If you are lucky, it can give you better mid bas kick and better image in space and the first reflex will be easier to deal with for your ears. But, every room has it's own personality, so the position you have on the pictures may work well, but if you haven't tried... do so. The best thing is thats it's for free!

Hi Apexorca, thanks for the compliments. I have a great deal of respect for you and what you have done with your system!

But if you read my last few posts in this thread, you'll see that I got these delivered just about 4 hours before I caught a plane for a vacation. Took a few hours to uncrate and assemble. Then, It was a very bittersweet 2 hours I had to listen to these babies because I knew I didn't have time to position them optimally. They are still on wheels, too.

Despite that, they sounded a great deal better than the Sasha 2s they replaced. It will only get better as they break in and more critical tweaking is performed.

When I get back, my dealer is coming over to help me do final positioning, tuning (head positioning) , and spiking.

Normally, coming back from a vacation isn't fun, but in this case, I have a lot to look forward to!
