Thiel CS3.7 vs WP8?

The 2nd hand price of Wilson WP8 is dropping down fast! I am thinking of buying a pair of 3.7 but as the WP8's price is almost within reach, I wonder which is the better choice? I have CJ premier 350 and Herron Pre. Now using Thiel 3.6 with very good results. Wanting the next step up!!

The WP are far better sounding and are way better built than the Thiels.

I like the WP, I do not think it is the holy grail, and I do think there are way less expensive speakers that are really great such as the top of the line Ushers.

I have always felt that the Thiels are transparent but lack warmth, and are somewhat dynamically restricted where the WP are not.

The imaging of the WP is more specific and the transparency is better than te Thiels.
