| DAW vs Alexia 1 vs Sasha 2, descending order of $$ @adsell What did you end up doing? I'm in a very similar boat. I'm actually trying to decide which upgrade for Sophia 2 - Sasha 1 or Sasha 2, or maybe wait for Alexia. Sasha 1 = 13kSasha 2 = 18kAlexia 1 = ?? maybe 22k. Did you pull the trigger... | |
| Wilson Sasha 2 or Alexia for small room 10' x 17'? I’ve had Alexia 1 and Sasha 1 and Sophia 3. I currently am rebuilding a system and have Sophia 2 as a place holder. Wondering how Sasha 2 would compare between Sasha 1 and Alexia 1. 14x21 room w 10’ celining. Same ARC gear. | |
| Enjoying My New Focal Sopra No2's @bugredmachine did you get the 3s? I've had Sopra 2s in my 21x14x10H room, and felt they didn't have enough bass compared to my Sasha 1s. I do have bass corner traps in the front. I'm now thinking of Sopra 3s... but concerned about bass. My r... | |
| Focal sopra 3 better than scala utopia v2 I heard. I would love to hear other/more thoughts on the Sopra 3. I ended up selling my entire audio room, and now rebuilding and torn between getting some Sopra 3s or another pair of Sahsa 1s. We love the Sasha, and love the Scala. We thought the Sopra 2s... | |
| Upgrade Quandary: Ref 75SE vs Ref 150 (non SE) For me, yes | |
| Upgrade Quandary: Ref 75SE vs Ref 150 (non SE) Ultimately, I can’t get away from he ref75. I added kt150s, and it’s a real dream. Even prefer it w my Wilson Alexias. Wow. | |
| Focal sopra 3 better than scala utopia v2 I heard. I’ve gone from Wilson Audio Sasha (v1) to Sopra 2 and I must say I’m impressed. The imaging, and depth of the stage, clarity and speaker disappearing are better than the Sashas in my 14 by 21 by 10 room w bass and first reflection treatments and ... | |
| What Are You Powering Your Focal Utopias With? VAC... Hmmm. Seems to be a common (still) recommendation. | |
| What Are You Powering Your Focal Utopias With? @jjue Thanks. Looks like a mighty fine integrated. Anything it does better than another? | |
| Focal Scala Utopia vs Wilson Sasha? I know I'm very late to this party/thread, but have to jump in. I appreciate everyone's efforts in trying to explain their different experiences and opinions with these two great speakers. It has helped me. I just sold my Sashas (had them for ~18... | |
| Upgrade Quandary: Ref 75SE vs Ref 150 (non SE) It is definitely always changing, and you cannot really tell what one tweak in one system will result in in another system. Things are not linear. More listening today. Short story: I'll be keeping the 150SE. I'll be giving up the nth degree of... | |
| Upgrade Quandary: Ref 75SE vs Ref 150 (non SE) Update:I received the Ref 150SE, dropped it in, and was not initially blown away. It has ~600 original hours. It has always been an SE. I let it play for about 10 hours, still wasn't taken by it. I put the Ref 75 (non SE) back in. It sounded sw... | |
| Upgrade Quandary: Ref 75SE vs Ref 150 (non SE) So, with the returning of the Ref75SE, I'm considering a Ref 150 SE that is for sale here/now. Has anyone compared the Ref75 to the 150SE? When I A/B compared in my system the Ref75 and the non SE Ref150, I fell more for the sweetness and emotio... | |
| Upgrade Quandary: Ref 75SE vs Ref 150 (non SE) It continues. I had to return the Ref 75SE (by the way the customer service from The Music Room who I purchased it from here on A'gon is awesome). It had at least a fried resistor when I received it. They made it right w/ prompt and full refund. | |
| KT150s in Audio Research Reference 75 (non SE) By the way. I dropped a set of Audio Research sourced KT150s, no problem, they biased w/ ease. |
