If there isn't a significant cost differential I'd prefer the Sophias. The Sophias are a more refined design than the 5.1s. I feel this shows up most when the system is played quietly. At reduced volume the 5.1s are comparably a trifle colorless and washed out tonally. I also feel that the Sophias perform brilliantly with a variety of medium powered amps, whereas, I have observed that the 5.1s are only at their best with greater amounts of power.
Wilson Sophia or Watt Puppy 5.1
I have been considering the Wilson Audio Speakers and would appreciate some input from Audiogon Members.
The 5.1s are about 8 years old and the Sophias I'm looking at are 1 year old.
They both sound wonderfull with my Sugden, 33 watt Integrated.
Just need some feedback from members, before taking the plunge.
Thanks.
