2. speakers
  3. 178862-8622

To all of the Wilson Audio owners:

I would love your input. I am also a Wilson Audio owner, Sophia series 2. I think the speakers are fantastic, my mother-in-law has cub series 2, a good friend has Sasha  2’s. I often times think that my next speaker will be Yvette  or  Sasha.

 

But here’s the big question that I would like to hear some answers for here: if you were to change your speakers from Wilson to another brand, what speakers have you considered or would you consider to replace Wilson’s? At this point, this is really just a thought Experiment. But I would really like to know what our community thinks about the nearest competing brands. So if you don’t mind, tell me which model of Wilson‘s you have, and if you had to replace them with a non-Wilson speaker what would it be or what would the contenders be?

 

Thanks!

I replaced a pair of Wilson Cubs with B&W 802D's in my main system.

Still enjoying the Cubs in the home theater though. They (Wilson Cubs) are a very nice speaker, built like a rock, & given enough room will throw a great soundstage.

I’m enjoying the Sabrina. As the others pointed out, speaker placement with the Wilsons is critical. It can make it or break it. I ended up with about 4ft from between the speakers and the wall behind them. Also how far away you sit from the speakers is equally important. Room acoustics play a huge role. 
If I were to replace them with a non-Wilson pair of speakers, I always wanted to try Focal Sopra 2 or Sopra 3. Those would definitely be at the top of my list. Followed by Sonus Faber Serafino or Olympica 3.

I have Watt/Puppy 8s and I would every change to a different brand it would be Magnepan. Totally different but excellent in their own way
