Ohhhh, I bet Wilson isn't happy.

I'm glad to see Danny changed his hair style. He used to look like my aunt. Beard and all...

laugh ROTFLMAO

Isn't this a "review" by a competitor who mostly criticizes the design choices made by Wilson for the Watt/Puppy?  There is no such thing as a set of perfect design, so that any choice necessarily involves compromises.  If you optimize one thing, something else is not so good.  Is the choice of connecting the two woofers in parallel necessarily worse than connecting them in series?  One way lowers impedance and makes the woofers a more difficult load, but the other way reduces efficiency.  The bottom line is how something sounds with the gear owned by prospective buyers. 

While I am  not a big fan of this speaker, a lot of people like it and they voted for it with their wallet.  There are MANY other speakers, both cheaper and much more expensive that I like even less, and many that I like more.   That is how it goes and this is less a review than a personal discourse on one builder's preference on design.

I like this guy and GR Research but he has one oar in the water and one oar out. He sells kits that measure and sound better for less money than the products he trashes. So he is a salesman for his product….
