The Watt/Puppy is one of the most controversial products in audio. I own the 5.1's. They are a pain. The room and upstream equipment better be right. But, if everything is just so, they are something to hear. It took me years to get them to their current level and I suspect I can still get more out of them.
My point is this. Speakers as this level cannot be discussed in a vacuum. It all depends on your equipment and your room. If you want something to set up and play, and you don't want to fiddle with it, you don't want Wilson's. People that say they're poor speakers are correct AS FAR AS THEY KNOW because it's so difficult to get them to sound good.
Personally, I suggest a pair of 5.1's or 6's as they are so much cheaper. Then take the extra money and place it in room treatment and better equipment. I suggest tubes in the chain somewhere, I use a CAT Ultimate. I like MIT Cables with mine. If you have the funds to do all this and still get the 7's, which I'm sure are better, great. But, if you are spending this type of cash I'd find a dealer that will help you put all this together including room treatment and set up.
If you prefer to consider something easier to deal with I suggest the Vandersteen 5 A's. They are much more room friendly. Either way, make sure the dealer will give you your money back on the speakers if they don't work for you. For this kind of money a showroom demo is folley, you must hear them in your room.
