I asked in my earlier post, I wonder how much is the price of the WAMM and the waiting time for an order.
My XLF will be delivered (tentatively) next month 😂
So "tentatively" means.... you might upgrade to Wamms!? Hahahah

Oh no, I wrote "tentatively" as my dealer cannot confirm the delivery yet.
Actually I am interested in the new WAMM if the price is right and I do not need to wait for too long for the delivery.
Unfortunately my dealer has no information on the above

I'm sure it will only be a few days to find out. But I'm also sure it will be double what you are paying for the XLF. I love the XLF, it's hard to believe the WAMM can beat it. But Wilson doesn't mess around with half baked products, especially David Wilson's swan song. Either way, you won't go wrong.

Do the wamm... The xlf are discounted on the used market. 99k for Aston white xlf.

The wamm? You'll probably keep a good portion of your investment. It's a no brainer if you got the money.

OK, I gotta ask....Since time coherency is the primary design priority of this speaker, right down to its very name, how do rear firing drivers fit into that picture? Seems to me that they would be counter to its entire design ethos. Or does one also time align those rear drivers with the distance to the front wall and then the listener? Seems either very very complicated to set up, or just an elaborate explanation/justification for sticking as many drivers as they can fit into one really big and heavy box.
