Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 5.1 or..


Sophias?

They are around the same price in the used market?
Any obvious choices?

Please note, performance and looks are both vital!

Thanks, after hours and hours and with a few other comrades of listening to both the Sophias and WP 8's. I am sorry to disagree with some. The 8's are better than the Sophias, i do agree.. more refine on the very very top, richer and a little fuller with a deeper bottom end.
It not far for sure like what some are saying. They are quite close for sure. We tried with similar electronics and moved around a little here and there and with similar electronics and location of room and I must say, the Sophias are a steal. I ended up buying the Sophias and I could have picked up a WP6 or 7 used for a little more or for the same price but ended up going for the Sophias.
I like the new technolgy driven idea.

I just dont like the idea that all my good recording sound amazing and my bad recordings suck. I guess thats what honesty is all about. Thanks again for all your help guys!
Hi there and thanks Chris for your comments, I am not second guessing at all, very please and completely happy with my purchase!

For Jay461, try chatting with your local dealer for a price. Wilson dealers DO NOT give great discount but will gladly try to do their best for their clients I assure you depending on the store.
A used Sophia Mk2 goes for a shade below 10k for one that is in excellent condition. I have seen some going for around 9k depending.

I ended up buying from a dealer, it was worth paying the extra for the service and local support. Its not like cables and so on, bigger purchases...bigger trouble if any arrises.

Some stores do have demo/promo sales and its wroth grabing them then. Good luck!
