Wilson Audio Haters

It´s impossible. How can he post his 3D system on 2D forum.

LOL.

Bo knows - Nothing

Bo should meet Audiotroy who works for Audio Doctor from Jersey City NJ. I call that shop the king of audio hyperbole. Whatever they are selling at any time (and that changes like the wind) is the best ever based upon the best engineering and is, simply, well undeniably the best there is at 3x, 5x or whatever the cost. Audiotroy pollutes threads with claims of superior knowledge and superior experience and then spouts pure unadulterated salesmanship. Audiotroy is pushing the new Paradigm speakers which I have heard and are worthy of some praise.  
 Bo does the same thing as he relentlessly pushes Monitor speakers which I can also attest are excellent speakers for the $ throughout the line. Bo is the king of a kind of vague, meandering, audio verbosity.
 BUT......
Many of us have auditioned many speakers with many combinations of electronics before making our choice. Many of us have selected speakers which we believe (as do many others) are superior to Paradigm's or Monitor's latest.
So----Wouldn't it be great if Audiogon limited Audiotroy's and Bo's membership to a special thread in which only they could participate. There they would be condemned forever to speak and sell only to each other. It would be sad and hilarious. But at least we would be entertained by them instead of bothered by them. 
I used to engage in threads with many of the members who are here for the right reasons---to share their joy, love and experience in this wonderful hobby which revolves around the love of music and how we hear it. But lately, I've come to feel like a bit of a hall monitor calling out the bad guys because I am so sick of blatantly close minded members who claim to have superior knowledge and spend their time lecturing others as to why their favorite brands are scientifically and factually superior to any other. They are not engineers and indeed often simply repeat the promotional highlights that are available to us on their brand's website. I hold in especially low regard audio salesmen who do this as they do not belong here.
Can I get a witness?  

Yes sir.

I take exception to your claims about AMT’s compressing.

The real problem is, like many technologies, there are AMT’s and then there are AMT’s! Just like any speaker technology, no 1 aspect of a tweeter can tell you if it’s good or not. There are very very good Be tweeters but most are mediocre, as is the case for ANY other type of tweeter.

I have measured AMT’s from a top-end manufacturer and they are among the very best drivers in the world, ESPECIALLY when it comes to compression and time domain problems. They are also very flat and well behaved electrically.

Now, I am a fan of Monitor Audio for their engineering and price, but I have never heard or measured their latest. What I am most impressed with in the PL200 however is their step response. Absolutely outstanding for a non-time coincident 3-way.

Also, Monitor Audio doesn’t play the same frequency games Wilson/B&W/Focal/GE do. No dip at 2.4k and they use a very smooth instead of ragged tweeter which is in vogue and touted by some reviewers as most revealing. Kill me, they sound horrid to me.

Now, which of these should YOU buy?? I have no opinion, but I would not discount AMT’s at all. The very best AMT's hold their own against the very best of any other tweeter technology in time domain, frequency domain, distortion and lack of compression.

Best,
