Wilson Benesch A,C.T. & Wilson Audio Watt Puppy8


Have premiered the WPs but may not be able to audition the ACT; however, before I invest in the WPs I'd like feedback on the ACT. I have read great things about these speakers. Musicality and dynamics are important to me. I have a lot of acoustic jazz, jazz fusion, male and female vocalists, blues and house music on vinyl and cds that I will be playing. Amplification will be Spectron amps in monobloc configuration and Joules preamp. Really would like to hear from individuals who have actually heard, or own these speakers and can make comments and comparisons based upon actual experience. Thanks.

Azaud, not sure of the reason no one at shows has paired the ACT's with solid state but I run my ACT's using Accustic Arts power 1 Mk2 with excellent results for both analogue and digital. Prior to the AA I used Accuphase A50v/ C290V combination that sounded good too. The ACT's reflect what is further up the chain - rubbish in - rubbish out. Noticeably better bass extension/definition, greater 3 dimensionality and better dynamics with the AA. To my ears a very nice combination - AA and WB ACT's.
