WILSON AUDIO.....BIG NAME, BIG PRICE........ARE THEY THAT GOOD?

They're awesome. Very special sounding.
Don't listen to the "measurement" guys.
Wilsons are worth the entry price.

@celtic66 Do you really think the people marketing range rover, rolex, bose, etc. had some exceptional marketing strategy that sustained these brands for this long?  Can't be true.  How could it be?  They're more evidence of the inability to differentiate and bad taste of rich people.  Once something has been popular with them for a long enough time it's permanently respected no matter how silly it is.  

The only person that can decide if Wilson’s are worth the money is you. I believe they are. I also believe that Sonus Faber, MBL and Vandersteen are. But ultimately their worth is a function of how they sound to you. 
It certainly isn’t a function of someone being a sore loser if they cannot afford them. Depending on what you like, either of the brands I mentioned are excellent speakers  regardless of cost. 

When I was last shopping for speakers, before demonstrating a pair of Magico floor-standing speakers, the salesman asked if I prefered "analytic" or "musical" speakers, an interesting way to put it.  In my case "musical" was my preference.  I found the Magico's were highly resolving and excellent in their own right, but not "my cup of tea".

When I visited my then local Wilson dealership, I found them also not "my cup of tea".  I thought they also were highly resolving and there was something about the highs, with my hearing, that prevented me from being able to listen to them for very long.

I don't think it's a "good" or "bad" issue.  I have friends who really enjoy their Wilson's, I just prefer something different.

My only advice is that prospective buyers take the time to fully audition speakers and listen to the music they like to enjoy at home, not the typical sources the dealer selects to show off the equipment they sell.

I heard some older WPs years ago not sure the model. I thought that older Focal tweeter was not great. I’m sure the new ones with soft dome sound much better but are also magnitudes higher in cost.
