RIP Dave Wilson


A sad day for audio. Dave Wilson was a true audio pioneer and a good man. He will be sorely missed. Prayers are out to the Wilson family.

Put on a well recorded organ LP from Wilson, played through my Wilson speakers and will dig out some more of his LPs, which I've been neglecting for too long.


I just bought my first pair of WATT Puppy 6's (used) after many years of searching. As I listen to them sing I will know who thank for making my world a more enjoyable place. You have touched the lives of many people and will be missed very much. Thank you. Dino
Sad news.  He was a lion of the industry, and built an incredible array of sought after products.

Rest in peace
I got the opportunity to hear the WAMM'a many years ago.  They were driven by Levinson 20.6 mono blocks and a Bryston amp bridged to drive the two enormous subwoofers, with all Levinson reference gear up front.  We listened to Shostokovich #4 and James Taylor live.  The separation of instruments was what I remember the most. Plus James T. really did sound LIVE!  I was able to hear individual musicians with such clarity that I don't recall ever hearing anything quite like it since.  I have to wonder what the WAMM-VII must have sounded like??  PERFECTION was David Wilson's middle name, and whether his ears hear the same things mine do, I am extremely impressed with his determination to make the very best audio equipment he could, And he wanted to do it here in the USA, not Switzerland or Germany or Japan.  In any case I admired him as much as anyone (who is also deeply resentful of his insane prices!)  Will they EVER have a "fire sale" so I can buy a pair of Alexx's
in dark metallic charcoal??  See, nothing's changed!  Still frustrated, still complaining!  Oh well!  Rest In Peace David, and I just hope Heaven has a good enough sound room- or they will have to start building a new one...
