Default Wilson's
Thanks for the link Serge...

These Wilson's are going to be a force to be reckoned with...

Have you heard them??? How do they compare to the Sophia 2?

Sasha? Not out yet. I think May 15th is the official date of release. I wonder if my local dealer will be bringing in a pair to demo.

Serge,

You should make a comparison before plonking down the dollars as both would be about the same size, maybe the Sasha WP is slightly larger (akin to the older WP).

I would love to hear your findings. Now to ask if my contact would be bringing a pair when available for a shootout between my MKIV's.

Come to think of it, so many NEW toys and so little disposable cash!

Cheers!

I am already questioning the sanity of thinking of buying the Maxx 3 since the Sophia 2 is so great in my room. Granted, the next room will be 2x bigger but in depth not width. I'll have to listen to the Sasha when I get a chance as they are almost 1/3 the price of Maxx 3.

To do that, you must changed your speakers you know?

Seriously Ivan, you are the UNIVERSAL dealer! You can represent any or every brand you chooses to!

Now, since speakers are not voltage controlled, maybe its time I get a good discount from you as the VIRGIN purchase .

In contention would be XR200, EB1i's and now Sasha .... one of them (not all as my name's still Jerry, not Ivan). 2009 would be very exciting if I can pull this coup off!

Cheers!

Yes, indeed. But with a little discount here and there, dollars exchange value dropping and stock market moving up, who cares about the $10 caus eit may not even be there!

Now thats me talking nonsense! Sorry! Your avatar headlights just blinded my sense! Sometimes, I swear I thought I saw "tweeters"
