Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars


Wonder what the impedance/-phase angle graph will look like on these puppies, looking at the amount of D'Agostino amps used to drive them, I'd say could be pretty evil.

I find the situation odd and this may be my own preference but IMHO (sorry to disappoint you steakster) it is unlikely that any Wilson loudspeaker can come close to matching the tall Sound Labs speakers for detail, transient response and phasing. I have never heard a dynamic speaker come close. Why anyone would spend that kind of money on a loudspeaker when you can have the state of the art for $50K is beyond me. Ego maybe? Perhaps not knowing that such loudspeakers exist? Maybe they just got sold on them. Whatever. I have heard big Wilson's (not the 3/4 million ones) and big Magico's (but not YG's) and none of them match big ESLs. I do not own a pair of Sound Labs yet but that day is surely coming.
