Marc, congrats on the Sasha's and thanks for sharing the pics. How cool that you got to visit the factory when they were being built? As a previous owner (of 2 separate pairs of Sasha's,) I can tell you without hesitation that you are in for a sonic treat!

Great pic!!! She's so cute. I won't put you on the spot by asking how you got that pic, but is her name Sophia or Sophie? I swear they called her Sophie multiple times. Sophia makes more sense..maybe Sophie is her nickname.
Thanks for posting that. |

Great thread, great pictures. Very interesting evolution shown in the speakers.
One looked like a smaller pre-colonial MAXX/Alexandria, very cool. I'm also curious as to why they don't have the wood veneers option. Having seen one, albeit an older model, makes them look more 'traditional'. I certainly liked the look.

Are you talking about the WITT? That thing is awesome looking! Here's a better pic of it, I accidentally uploaded a fuzzy pic of it yesterday.

Great post. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your trip and got to see your actual speakers in the flesh
I also like the picture of the array of Bryston's, good to see the Wilson team know a good amp when they hear it From the single LED's and size they look like 7B's. |

That is their burn-in station, and they told me they chose Bryston because it's a "workhorse". I suppose that means they appreciate it's reliability. In their listening room they had a hodgepodge of equipment by dcs, VTL, and LAMM. Probably others, but I was in a hurry to get to my plane at that point unfortunately. Their listening room was set up for moving equipment in and out. I get the feeling that they use it for lots of combinations of their speakers and electronics.
