| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade @yoyoyaya @OP Your posted measurements are quite different from the in room measurements that John Atkinson took. While he found the speaker peaky in the upper midrange, he measured it as a bit through the upper bass/lower midrange? They are ... | |
| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade @hilde45 Yeah --it's not scoffing. You don't really understand Fritz. He's a master speaker maker and has been doing it 40 years. He's a boutique maker and has very high standards. Others here who know Fritz will testify to the dis-analogy betw... | |
| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade @pwerahera I don't think stereophile review of this speaker is great. Summary says Sophia 3 is better value. Whenever the reviewer bring another model into the summary, the model reviewed is pretty much a dead duck. And your own experience sa... | |

| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade @james633 Jim2, thanks for sharing. I watched the YouTube video. I demoed the duette when it came out a longtime ago. Too long to remember the details but I do recall being impressed by the bass. let us know how the final product turn... | |
| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade Folks, you should be able to see 5 different frequency response measurements in the initial post, including a spectral decay measurement. I can see them. If you can't see those, let me know and I will repost, linking to a different source for the... | |
| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade @hilde45 I wouldn’t have Danny "fix" a Fritz speaker. That’s like asking Thomas Kinkade to touch up a Leonardo. I get it. It can be a lot easier to dismiss than it is to seek. I’m sure many would scoff about messing with a Wilson Audio product... | |
| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade @erik_squires Also, hands down, Fritz makes a better sounding 2-way speaker that don’t require crossover upgrades. Erik, this may be of interest to you. You might find it worthwhile to reach out to Danny regarding the "Fritz Carbon 7SE" speaker... | |
| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade @roxy54 Sorry for the misunderstanding. On my PC no pictures have come through. I’m glad you find it of interest. I messaged you a link that may help you see the images. I’ve found this process to be very illuminating. In fact, it’s really help... | |
| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade @roxy54 Interesting @jim2 . The bold type titles you provided are not useable links, but thanks for the other information. Very expensive speakers considering that they need fixing. They aren’t links, just headings for the picture / info below ... | |
| Wilson Audio Duette / Custom Crossover Upgrade @testpilot Was that your speaker used in Danny’s video? Yes. My buddy is also having a set of the revised crossovers done. | |
| Big speakers, are they really the best way to get great sound? @inna Rats in the maze. coltrane1, they can't "Go big". Noise... outa. |
