What can beat Wilson XVX for less money?

@stringreen Have you been to many of those lately? We just saw Muse in concert last weekend and the first thing my wife said was “this sounds shitty, I’ve been spoiled by your system.” :)

Well not less than $100,000 but about 1/2 as much. I have it on direct authority from a respected reviewer that the Wilson Alexx V is better than the XVX and that he's not the only reviewer with that opinion. Perhaps alos look at the Laxia V if you are a Wilson fan.

There are many speakers that are on the same level with XVX for half the price. To Name few of them: Marten Coltrane/Mingus series, TAD Reference series,  Vimberg audio, Von Schweikert audio, YG Acoustics.. etc

Raidho TD 4.8

OP, I am confused. Is there a point to this post? Are you in the market for a set of speakers? 
 

“Beat Wilson…” This is an ambiguous question. I have heard some incredible Wilson, Magico, and other well known expensive speakers. I can appreciate what they can do… but also, I have not wanted to own any of them. Why? Because of my values in sound. What I am looking for is different.

So if this is a real personal question… what are your preferences in sound… your equipment, budget, venue, and desire to swap out components to support the speakers.

If this is just a question for the fun of asking questions… just say so.
