xr200 vs pmc eb1i vs wilson audio sophia2
I am strongly considering one of these speakers. I am looking for feedback from all who have listened to one two or all of these. Any Info will be much appreciated. I will be making trips to listen to all of these but I am curious as to what you guys think!! Any others you can think of in the 15k range? I have sold my 802d's and can't wait to try something new!
Thanks, Dave Last edited by mac man; 05-03-2009 at 10:04 PM. |

Dave,
I haven't listened to the eb1i nor the xr200, but my wife & I went back and forth on the Sophias and the 802Ds last year. That was a tough decision, and we think about the Sophias a lot still. I've heard the Totem Winds may be worth a listen. Why did you sell the 802s? What's in your system?

You'll certainly have no problem driving just about anything with the 602. Look forward to your impressions and comparisons.

Mx119 Mc602 Mc207, I have put my Von Schewikert vr4jr back in the system for now but I plan on new speakers this summer. (I love 2 channel but I also have 7.1 surround) That is what scares me about wilson the price of their surrounds are $$$$ but we will see. Any suggestions is much appreciated
