Wilson Audio Haters

I've always wondered why there are so many people out there, that more than any other speaker manufacturer, really hate the Wilson line. I own Maxx 2's and also a pair of Watt Puppys. They are IMHO quite wonderful.

Why does Wilson get so much thrashing?

In the end, if I was a speaker manufacturer I would so whatever possible, legally, to make it as successful as possible.  Doesn't seem unusual in any way, including Stereophile being bias (assumption) towards those that provide the most towards their own livelihood.

What would be unusual would be any other outcome.

Advertising is no problem, because this is a free choice for each company to use or not.

But.....the problems occurs when personal benefit colours the real truth about a review. The magazines know they do it like the manufacturers who pay for it know it.

They both need to look further. I know this is not the easiest way. But I can garantee that this is the only way when you want the audio market to be healty and still interested for customers over 10 years and later.

Personal benefit is based on greed. This is short time policy and cost the least energy. There is still time to learn and do it better.

Each single person can change it when they want to. So it is up to you!

Hahahahah.

Hahahhaa.

Hahahahah.

I don't believe those magazines would exist without advertising, but to believe in such piety and purity in these days. Oh, sweet innocence. How I miss you.
