@ewert the design of focals is not for me. @willgolf so you consider the Alexx to be superior to the Alexandrias? I've heard the Alexx just never the Alexandria and there are none in my area.

@willgolf Glad to hear about your daughter beating this thing!To make things more complicated I may have an opportunity to get a pair of Alexx for the price of the X2. Any thoughts on how they compare to each other? Which one would you get?

@supermerio The Sasha's are no longer in the running. It's between the GrandSlamms and the Alexandrias.

Hope everyone is staying safe.Sorry I've been AWOL but I put this project on hold due to a bout with cancer. After several months of treatment it's looking like I'm back on track to being healthy again. Fingers crossed. So I'm finally revisiting e...

@georgehifi The Parasounds were recommended as affordable equipment when I went to listen to the current Wilson offering at a dealer. I find them a little bland looking but will keep them in mind.What about Gryphon signature monos? They seem more ...

@georgehifi The Gryphon evo at $75k the pair new are out of my price range I'm afraid. A used set would probably still be too expensive at this point. What about a pair of the new McIntosh MC901 or used MC1.2Kw? Any other alternatives?

I'm leaning towards Grand Slamm 2 upgraded to 3 or the Maxx 3. They seem like decent value right now. Going to audition them in the next few days but most likely in smaller dedicated listening rooms.@georgehifi is an advocate of the GS. What are t...

@tdimler I actually almost got a pair of red Vivid Ovals for my screening room but decided to go will in wall speakers instead. I don't love the G1/G2 aesthetic.

@david_ten Aesthetics are crucial. I have a somewhat surrealist decor so everything needs to be a statement piece. A friend put me onto Wilson. I like the way they sound, their design and the funky colors they come in. Yellow, orange or red Sashas...

To be clear i’m not running a nightclub. But I am a social person and constantly have people over. My open space floorplan is not a dancefloor and can be broken down into several distinct areas. 1) a formal dinning room for 16 people 2) a living r...

@georgehifi Which pre amp and streamer would you recommend to go with with the Gryphon mono amps? Also is there an alternative to the Gryphon? If I go the Grand Slam route, I'll be on the lookout for a used set so would be good to have a couple fa...

Alexia 2 are about 45-50k used and Sasha DAWs 37k + tax new. Are they worth the premium when the MAXX 3 can be found used at about 30k?
