The best thing to do on any review is trust your ears. Never buy a product without listening to it. Now I know everyone can't or won't do this. But everyone should. Remember there is no product made that everyone likes. If you like Wilson speakers and they are in your price range buy them. If you don't like Wilson speakers don't buy them. Remember the goal is to enjoy the music. Who cares what someone else thinks of your system. If you like it you will listen to it. If you don't you won't so buy what you like and forget about what everyone else thinks.

Just my 0.02 before taxes....
People, who cares what the speakers cost. It is up to the person who is buying the speaker to determine if it is worth the price or not. If I buy a speaker for 1,000 and I think it is worth the money fine. If I buy a speaker for 100,000 and I think it is worth the money fine. I am the one who is determining what value it has to me. Why do we care that Wilson can sell a speaker for 50K and people buy it? Sure a lot of it has to do with marketing like everything else sold in the US. Just because one person writes a "bad" review who cares. I hope you are not buying gear based on what someone says! How about going and listening to the gear and decide for yourself. You know you are the person who will have to live with the gear, not the reviewer. There have been tons of gear that have gotten wonderful reviews in the mags and even here on Audiogon that I thought sounded like crap. Guess what I didn't buy it because I listened to it for myself.
