Wilson Audio Question compaired to Vandersteen


I have a friend that is a Wilson Audio fan and I have always liked them he is using the watt puppy 7, they just have a great punch and are very clear, also there center is awesome looking. My current speakers are just boring lumps so something that stands out would be nice. I use my speakers 80% for HT these days. I have a chance to get some at a great deal anyhow I am not sure where to start. I have Vandersteen 5a but what is the Wilson Audio model compared to the 5a's. Also I know what I hear but what are other people’s opinion between the two? Thank you in advance for any input.

I concur with AudioFreakGeek 100% based on my auditions @ various Wilson dealers and owners rigs.

Also an audition of a pair of Vandersteen 5As at an in-home audio salon leaves me the impression that the speakers are way way far from " time and phase coherent"
especially in the mid-bass region.
