Having have own Cubs I can say I thought the same thing. Unless you have a room big enough to support a true full range speaker I would stay with the Cubs and upgrade source and cables first. If you want to goto a larger speaker the Sophia's are the step to go and stop ...
Where to go from here?
Once we discover a particular product in a brand it's always tempting to move up the food chain from entry level to mid or upper level product within the Brand. The first challenge is with the Wilson line - I've had a taste of the entry-level speakers with the Cub II's... so what's next? Should I find an older model or work on a current one. ie., Watt Puppy or Sophia II's? Sophia I's Maybe. In the past I've used the budget method ... wait for an Audiogon listing within my budget. But, the improvement and the resale value was almost a side ways move rather than a move up. Keep in mind there are no dealers within nearly 200 miles and I like flipping gear, so auditions are not required. Your opinion matters ... like phoning a friend ... the crowd mentality has merit.
