Wilson Alexandria X-2 with ML N33???

Darren,

You are right about it snapping into focus, I felt the same way when I went from non-xl to xl and from ulra with xl to reference with xl complete.. my speaker cable is still reference xl and I have been hesitating on buying reference MM, and thinking of buying ultra MM... so I probably am not getting the full benifit. the speaker cable was the most import part in my systems prior, but only after having the interconnects in place.

It was a hard choice for me selling my placette but I found out that my Gamut CD1R was way better out of the balanced outputs so I switched to a balanced preamp.

As a Wilson Owner I would talk to your wilson dealer or better yet call Dave Wilson before he comes out (doesn't he setup the X-2's personally if I remember correctly). That's a ton of power for such an effienct speaker.

What color did you order them in?

As a WP7 owner the resisters will blow or show reduced volume and it is designed to protect the drivers.

I just got my Watch Dog and it fills in perfectly and I prefer this setup to just straight Maxx II. The difference is that the Maxx II's throw a bigger wall of sound, instead of the intimate exacting presentation that the WP7's throw.

If I got Maxx's I would still end up buying a subwoofer because of the ideal sub integation and the cut/boost filters on the Watch Dog.

Congrats!

I did the reference MM balanced and my friend did the Ultra MM balanced and yes reference is better but barely, I would have saved the money and bought Ultra MM as it was better than my older reference with XL balanced... and that is all I needed.. Then I could have bought the sub sooner. The placette is awesome but the VTL will add some air into your system (my dealer has the S400 amp and it is pretty amaazing on WP7's)

Congrats!
