Stereophile - Sabrina 5


Hate to rag on Sterophile again, but one of two things are true.  One, the Sabrina speakers they reviewed were wired incorrectly or Wilson is now shipping with inverted midranges. 

All that work to reduce distortion to vanishing levels only to totally ahem, add custom flavor to the frequency response.  

Honestly if I was reviewing this speaker I'd have stopped to reach out to them before publishing, just to be sure this speaker shipped as intended.

I have a pair of Wilson Sabrina X's.  I love them and they provide just the type of sound that I like.  I can't tell you what all of the measurements mean, but to me, t, if the speaker sounds good in my system, it is good!

MotoMan... that's the only measurement that actually counts.  Without it there is no good or bad.  All the amateur Bla Bla about reviews and other people's comments provides no real value to us.

Enjoy your speakers...

@moto_man ​​@coppy777 that’s right! As a matter of fact, all the hating actors here have inspired me to appreciate my system even more! They’re just an envious bunch with overdeveloped WDS who secretly wish they owned these speakers.
Enjoy the music!

It’s funny how all these negative responses to how Wilson believes a speaker should be design. Do any of these people design speakers for a living, if so, have they brought them to production so the world can hear how great they sound? No!

@hiendmmoe exactly. We make sushi at home once in a while and I grill a pretty decent steak. Does that elevate me to the levels of Masaharu Morimoto and Bobby Flay? And I can begin publicly trashing their creativity and technique, claiming I know more about the kitchen than they do? That would go well…
