Watkins Audio Generation Four Bookshelf Speakers ?


Has anyone heard these speakers? I was wondering because I found out that Bill Watkins made these Generation Four speakers. Bill Watkins use to help design speakers for Infinity many years ago and has been making his own speakers since 1980 with his model WE-1’s.

Looking at the frequency response chart on their web site and it looks very impressive indeed. This means these speakers should be very accurate and should also sound great with any type of music and should sound more life-like too.

I just got mine. They are supposed to get better with break-in. Right now - super happy. Replacing Martin Logan XT35s which are fine. I have a hard time telling the difference between the overpriced stuff I buy. These are different. I had a physical reaction to them - I just smiled big like wow - I’m not sending these back. I am teased by friends I send stuff back often. Sure, you say you are great, the best I heard, and you are not - I send you back. I do not claim to be very experienced, although I do listen at Best Buy Magnolia (B&W, Ks, ML) and stay at nice hotels. These are keepers.
Somewhere around noon I turned off the REL T/7i sub.  I'm not sure if I like things better, but they are clearer, crisper and these don't really need a sub.
