Grgr4blu,
You really need to get some help you have been told by numerous people that you don't add anything and your combative nature is a turn off.
We on the other hand have been contacted by numerous people who are turned off by you, and find our comments helpful and informative vs the tiny number of people who like you are so rooted in their belief systems to find one of our suggestions to try x y or z offensive.
As per you and your cadre of friends, that won't work with my store, personally I say good riddance. We can't assist people with closed minds and you have the arrogance to actually believe that you have more experience than a professional who has been doing this day in and day out for over 30 years. Please tell the community what stores you have worked in and what your day job really is.
Our reputation is one of making great sound and extolling the virtues of many new and exciting products that often challenge the status quo we do this to save prospective clients money and give them better sound. We do field shoot outs all the time.
Last point very few people who have read any of our posts have contacted us to purchase anything as many times we are bound by territorial restrictions.
Trolling by your definition is the worst thing in the world, most people who are actual buyers in this position are looking for guidance and most people are looking for a product that will work for them so when presented with options that they didn't know about they are happy to receive the information.
Many people purchase products not necessarily for the right reasons, and as I asked the OP if in his part of this very large country that this dealer Wilson might be his best line of reference speakers.
So you presume to know more about what everyone who posts is thinking as well as knowing more about the industry than a 30 year professional.
I wonder if I went into your office and stated that I knew more about your industry how you would feel kind of ridiculous isn't it. I don't know what you actually do for a living, but I can guarantee you don't make your living in the audio industry.
So next time instead of yelling look at the Troll why don't you inform the community with something constructive?
Back to the OP in order to guide this gentleman to purchase Wilsons or anything else, his room dimensions, placement options, and matching gear all needs to be considered, and unless he is in our part of the world we will doubtfully be benefiting in any way.
What is appalling in most of these posts is the self affirmation that people who own these products seek.
Wilson makes a great speaker, so does Magico, Rockport, Kef, B&W, Focal. It all comes down to taste and what you personally value.
You think I am a Wilson basher I am not, I have owned their speakers and sold tons of them. Their place in the market at one time was untouchable while right now there are tons of competitors that are also excellent.
If someone buys a Wilson great for them, but to think that the market is static and unchanging is ridiculous. There will always be new and exciting products coming in to a mature market to shake things up.
