Wilson's newest Maxx 3 setting up photos


I have helped my friend to setup his newest Wilson Maxx 3 speaker which has been delivered this Monday and he was using the Maxx2 before it. I have listened to all wilson speakers in home settings except the Whamm and after four consecutive days listening to the Maxx3, all I can say is this is truely a great speaker, full stop! It wins the Maxx2 hands down and in many ways I consider this a breakthrough design among wilson's speaker range, including the almighty Alexandria.

Pls feel free to look at the photos taken during the set up procedures:

i see a pic of various caddock resistors, the one on display at 5.3r. i gather that diff values are avail to change the balance of the tweeter?

i do wish wilson would stop using those things. i've never heard a caddock sound good in a signal path, but not sure if they use them in that capacity in the speakers. any ideas?

its not that they're poor quality; they hold their values very well.

they just don't sound very good in a signal path: a bit bleached & whitish compared to a holco, roederstein, etc. but you cannot get those mfgs in sufficient wattage. however, duelund does come in large wattages, and i'm most curious to see how that would work...
