Wisdom Audio Adrenaline 75 dipoles?


Hi,

Has anyone heard these speakers before? I am buying a pair
unseen-unheard.
Is it a speaker of a lifetime?

Any opinions (from someone who has actually heard them) would be GREATLY appreciated about now.

Thanks,
Bob

i have heard these speakers a few times at a local dealer and was mostly impressed. set-up was inconsistent. i am used to dynamic speakers so they sounded slightly washed out to me. but i think that is my listening biases coming thru. one problem was that they were always tinkering with the crossover and they never were fully satisfied with it. that would frustrate me but someone else might love to tinker. they clearly have great potential and your room has the size to let them breathe. good luck.

Thanks again to all for the post's from everyone, I have a
lot of thinking to do.
I have not ruled out the Wisdoms as I know it takes a ton
of tinkering with a speaker like that.

Sound labs sound good, as well as the Newforms. (I have heard a lot of great reviews from those.)

Thanks,
Bob
A store in Bozeman MT had a demo pair of A-1s for sale. $10,500 including shipping in the US. I don't know if they still have them but their number is 406-522-8904. Good luck
Hi Bob, I was a dealer for this product for quite some time and still have a set left. They are still the best thing available (imho) especially @ under $15K. They do however take quite a bit of set up and sometimes require resetting the internal switches in the x-over. Mike was probably referring to us as we are always futzing around with the settings. Generally the manufacturer charges a substantial amount to set them up (1 - 2$K). If you do purchase them we have a manual available to guide you through set up. Also be prepared for shipping hassles these units are large and need to be palletized when shipped. Good Luck and enjoy!
