Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars


Wonder what the impedance/-phase angle graph will look like on these puppies, looking at the amount of D'Agostino amps used to drive them, I'd say could be pretty evil.

And, all the conspiracy theorists may now chime in.

As an aside, WHO CARES what something costs and what someone is willing to pay for it?

Does it bother people if someone can afford this? And who cares what their motivation is. 

Live and let live, people. 


@mikelavigne   I value your posts and interactions on the various threads. I know of others who do.

Please stayed engaged and contribute. We need perspective from all levels and most who have cost no object systems are unfortunately not participating. State of the art perspective provides references and, at the end of the day, is what everyone is aiming for (within their budgets).
I think there's value in trying to figure out why products exist, who they're for, etc.  If something is priced high for reasons that legitimately contribute to performance it's different than if it's just because the manufacturer is trying to appeal to a particular market, running a scam, etc.  
Erik, yes, you are. There are aimed very specifically to location, both of the speaker and the listening position height etc. Quite shocking in fact, how a small change in these positions can make a dramatic difference.

To Millercarbon's question...  Yes I have heard these, messed with them and helped dial them in with a friend. The system is simply amazing. Chills amazing in fact. Not sure what you are talking about with system you mentioned? Everyone has their own ears and preferences I suppose.
