Looking for a new speaker. Wilson Maxx II ??

OK I don't want to start a flame war. I know you either love Wilson speakers or you hate them. I'm in the market for a pair of speakers. I have a dedicated room that is 19W x 25L x 10H. I'm looking for a pair of speakers I can keep for a bit so I am going to lay out some hard earned cash. With this being said I have listened to a pair of Wilson Maxx II a couple of times and they are quite nice. I feel I need to compare them to other speakers in the same category. Any suggestions on speakers I should listen too before making my decision?

Thanks for your time.

Wilsons sound great in the far-field. They throw an amazing soundstage

Go for the Wilsons! Nothing I've ever heard sounds as good as Maxx IIs. The wilson sound is 2nd to none IMHO. I'm saving up for Sophias though bc im poor. Heard the avalons diamonds, 100k+ kharmas, some other stuff

Raul - that is the plan. I have one DD15 on its way as you're aware, one day in the coming years I will have the space and funds for another DD15 and the Sophias (or other next-level speaker I decide on. On my audition list are: Merlin VSM-MX, Audio note, Dyn C2, and Avantegarde duo) - current speakers are the Dynaudio S1.4s, no slouch either for a great monitor in the dynamic camp

Deshapiro - Yes, of course the speakers interaction with the room is the biggest concert/potential bottleneck in every music system.

Orangej4 - Congratuations on the MAXXes. What other equipment are you using with them? Can you compare and contrast your experience with the MAXX relative to some of the other well-respected designs you've had the pleasure of owning?

Thanks!
