Brianmgrarcom, I see in your system you have McIntosh electronics with your Wilsons. That is a combination you don't usually see and I've wondered why as I imagine they do very well together. Obviously you think so, can you offer a little insight?
Considering the oft repeated "careful matching" when speaking of Wilson, I recently had to abolish my prejudices when I heard a demo at my local audio salon consisting of Krell evo electronics driving the new Wilson 8's. Reading the forums you would expect this combination to drill your ears from your head with laser like intensity. On the contrary. Though my experience and audio vocabulary is limited, my sensitivity to what is referred to as bright is pretty intense. What I heard was rich, smooth, dynamic and non fatiguing...now you guys quite fighting ;-)
Damn would I love to get Jkalman and Dhaan together with their choice of speakers and have at it. I know I would learn something.....
Jkalman,
Have you considered one of Sonus Fabers infinite baffle sources; Elipsa or Stradivarius to mitigate the effect of your room? Sorry if off topic, my intent is not to start a rash of speaker recommendations..... Also, thanks for sharing your quest.
