Wilson Sasha's - All evolution in Wilsons are.....


Very much like a revolution in long runs. I heard them in several places and highly tweeked rooms. SUPERB!!!!
I am a pround owner of the Sophia's Mk2 and I still envy the Sasha's very much every single time.

A true step up for Wilson, much more forgiving than the Puppy 8's. Now it pretty much works with every credible amplifier out there. Great looks, Wilson built quality as usual without question and stunning sound. Setup and everything else is the same, a real pain in the A** to get them right :)

"A" Plus for Wilson.

Regarding Tpreaves comments--my wife said exactly the same thing when she saw them at RMAF 2008. Every once in awhile I casually comment that I am thinking of getting a pair of those garbage can speakers just to tweak her a little. Personally I am a Wilson fan, but agree the price is a little prohibitive unless you buy "pre-owned".
Tpreaves,
You are funny. LOL, "Trash receptacle in a high school cafeteria" Anyway, I have never owned any Wilson speakers. I do think they should be decent sounding given the price they are asking.
Wow I am truly amazed at some of the opinions, but I guess that’s what makes us all different. I trust a Bugatti Veyron will look like a larger trash disposal unit to some. The price of these things are not cheap by all means but it’s actually less compared to its predecessor the Puppy 8's and that is usually not a common occurance in this industry. Prices of newer replacement models usually go up.
Regarding wife’s, that’s a funny thing since my wife don’t ask me about my speakers unless they sound horrible and I don’t ask them about their designer handbags since they successfully carry funds either way.

Anyways I still think they look fantastic!
Thanks for the interesting responses.
Rapogee,

I've had Sophia 1s for a little over 4 years now. I love them, but I am thinking about replacing them with the Sashas.

I have listened to the Sasha's a few times at my dealer's store. I have heard them with Ayre MXRs, big Krell mono blocks and one of the more modestly priced tube Mac mono blocks.

I have not been very favorably impressed. But the room the dealer has them in small and the dealer says that they don't breathe well in that room.

Can you describe what you heard with them and what equipment was being used with them.

Thanks,

Ed
