So sorry for the loss of your mom. My thoughts are with you and your family. I always enjoy your content and have followed you around the world over the past several years. Glad to have you back. While the equipment you discuss is well out of my price range and experience, there's always something something I can take away. In this case, the Shirley Horn album you reference: I just ordered it! Well within my price range. 🙂

Ooooh - that room -- and the goodies within...!!!! Positively drool worthy!! So interesting what you have to say about hearing the Wilson speakers at shows etc. They have always sounded a little clinical to me, but hearing/reading people whose ears I trust (like yourself and Fremer) wax rhapsodical about them, I yearn to hear them in a different setting with different electronics than the usual. (Not that I can afford them....!!!). Gotta pick up that Shirley Horn... So good to get a new video from you - hopefully the first of many (wink, wink!) But I did miss the canine content this time around...

Hi Danny, schön, dass du die Kraft gefunden hast für das interessante Video. Ja - steeplechase Platten sind so hervorragend hergestellt, haben eine betörend schönen Klang und musikalisch sind sie nicht von dieser Welt. Und wenn man sich diese Platten über eine grandiose Anlage anhört, die in Lautsprechern von Wilson Audio (oder besser Backes&Müller enden 😉), ja, dann ist man im Himmel. May your Mom rest in peace

Well I can really relate to your change to the Sasha V. I went from the Alexx V then to the Alexia V and now I’m considering the Sasha V. Bottom line is I wanted to know if I could be satisfied with a smaller speaker. So far I still hear everything the smaller speaker can’t do. Mainly in the mids. So now I’m considering returning to the Alexx V.
@SonicFlareАй бұрын
Funny: since upgrading to Alexia V, I get a lot of what XVX did in a more compact package. Alexia V is [surprisingly] a major step up from Sasha V.

Danny, quick question/observation: since you’re so sensitive to time and phase, have you had any interest in Vandersteen speakers? I auditioned Wilson’s in NYC and liked them very much but ended up with Vandersteen Quatro Wood CT’s because they sounded, to my ear, more cohesive, layered and natural. I can listen to them for hours and you just fall into the music. Thanks for the great content!

If I may ask, how does the Wilson Sasha Vs compare to the Wilson Alexia V speakers? Which among the 2 speakers is more laid back, warmer and more full bodied sounding? Also, if my room has a dimension in feet of L-17X W-15X 7.5, which speakers would you suggest that I get? Thanks.
@SonicFlare4 ай бұрын
Thanks for the question - all Wilson speakers have the same tonal characteristics in my opinion: from the TuneTot to WAMM. As for more full bodied sound, the Alexia V due to it’s size of cabinet and woofers, will certainly play lower and with more ooompf… your room should be fine with either one of them. Do you have the opportunity to listen to them at a HiFi shop?

@@SonicFlare Actually not. But I decided to get the the Wilson Sasha V speakers because I've listened to the Wilson Watt Puppies and I was so impressed the way they sounded so I thought to myself, the more with the Sasha Vs. I would have wanted the Alexia's Vs but had budget constraints. Thanks a lot for the quick reply.
