Alexx

[Sharp 1080]

When I bought my Maxx 3's last December I had the choice of going with the newer CST in a smaller floor standing speaker, or sticking with the older Ti dome tweeter in a larger cabinet. I chose the older design as I have had zero issues with it being too bright, or lively, or anything other than revealing. Tube preamp and treated room just emphasize that it's a good tweeter. Strange because my Watt/Puppy 7's tended to be on the brighter side, the Maxx top end is very smooth in comparison. To echo what Charles stated the Maxx 3 is a powerful speaker, the same thing that Daryl Wilson told me right before purchasing them. No desire to jump on the bandwagon. Just because it's new doesn't mean it's better, just different. The fact we can choose is a benefit when deciding. The have to come up with something new to sell speakers.

I believe that the Alexx may employ dual spider woofers. It just makes sense to eventually employ Wilson's well developed dual spider sub woofer technology into the woofers of Wilson's full range larger loudspeakers and Alexx may be the first. This would create a true power speaker like the Maxx3 with the geometry of the XLF in a smaller platform than the Maxx3. Power which is defined as enormous low bass capability without woofer overload/doubling and the ability to ramp up to almost live music sound levels is what separates the Maxx3 from its smaller cabinet cousins. This would truly replace the Maxx3 and set the stage for a smaller but more potent XLF in the future with a metal dome tweeter that will possess the low frequency response needed to mate with the Wilson midrange. Technology marches onward. Of course it goes without saying but I will say it anyway, I may be totally incorrect because I am speculating. But it seems to me that we need true advances in speaker technology and not simply refinements of existing platforms or steps backward.

IMO, Wilson's best industrial design to date but

Why not black socket cap bolts instead of silver. Don't most users leave grill covers off?

Whats with the metal port trough? Sticks out like a sore thumb. Looks like a cheap short cut design. It should be molded in to the body
