In general, Wilson speakers sound great when... they are properly matched to other components, proper cabling, and pretty good to great acoustics (and positioning) in the room. If they sound flat and uninteresting it is not unusual at all. However, this is the 3rd iteration of Sophia's and they should (normally) be the cornerstone of your system. A Wilson dealer should come over and see and hear your system and make some suggestions starting with the most cost-effective ones 1st. If you can afford a more forgiving pair of speakers there are several i can think of, but that could involve a lot
of money, time, and effort as well. I always wanted the accuracy of Wilson's but i thought i could do better elsewhere and for less money and ended up with a giant-killing pair of Eggleston Andra's.
Anything similar to those would IMO add a great measure of musicality to most normal living rooms (Merlins, Sonus Faber, Reference 3a's, Focal, etc.).
