Wilson Sophia 1's vs 2's

Richard
Do you know if the 2's improvements moved it in the direction of the W/P 7's towards becoming a more reveling speaker rather than moving along the more "musical nature" of the Sophia 1's?

Richard
Thank you for your perspective. I have off and on thought about buying the 2's but have been afraid of loosing the "nature" of the 1's. The 1's are a very good speaker and have handled every improvement to my system with ease, they still surprise me with their capabilities i.e. dynamics....

I guess it's a matter of funds, if three thousand dollars isn't a problem then it seems the 2's are the choice. In my situation I have something to loose and aren't sure the improvement/risk is worth it, your original question! The change for me would have to be to the S3's or W/P 8's. Your in a win win situation the 1's or the 2"s are a good choice!!! I wanted to give you the perspective of a happy S1 owner and how good the 1's are, it's not about the money for me but I don't want the trouble/inconvenience for a "small" improvement. Hope this helps it's a tough choice!!!

I probably shouldn't have used the word "small". I was thinking about buying a new set of S3's but at this point I don't know what I'm going to do!!!! You put it very well "if it ain't broke, why fix it"!!!

I sent you an e-mail so we don't totally hijack this thread.

I just bought W/P 8's and the Sophia 2 is said to be very similar to the 8's. I wanted to amend my Sophia 1 love story and recommend the Sophia 2 or if you have enough funds to get the 8's (used) definitely look at them as they are simply fantastic!!

Hi Noli Fjn04 is correct I had the 1's as I'm sure you knew. After hearing the Maxx 3's and the Sasha I wanted the W/P 8's bass and higher sensitivity. So for me yes it's better!!
