Mert, more accurately, Wilson+Transparent is nirvana. 
Amp suggestionsfor Wilson Watt Puppies/Sophia
Wilson speakers are only degraded by amplification.If you are insistent upon this approach then by all means avoid speaker cables. 
Anyone heard of T +A Theory and Application
http://www.taelektroakustik.de/The Quartet Group distributes T+A in the U.S.Call Stirling @ 707.762.0914. He is most helpful.As remarkable as the P 1230 R is, the A 1530 amplifier is even more astonishing. The price/performance factor of these pr...

Ed, thanks for your insights. I'm probably a few steps back but I suspect I might be following your footsteps.I look forward to your continuing odyssey.

Ed (Cipherjuris), your cable odyssey is very interesting. Sounds like you've attained an enviable synergy but I'm wondering why you didn't try Transparent cables in the same league (and price) as VD Rev 2.0s or PAD Dominus?Interesting that you did... 
Cable elevators
I completely agree that elevating certain cables above carpet improves focus and dynamics.Does that apply to well shielded cables with network boxes such as MIT and Transparent? Do you raise the network box as well?Thoughts appreciated. 
audience au24 versus transparent ultra mm
Michael, I just completed an exhaustive audition of cables to match my new W/P 8s and would like to offer a few thoughts:- You have a superb system already.- Audience Au24s are remarkable: one of the best SCs available regardless of price because ...

Mcrheist, hatchet hopefully buried and genuine interest in your experience appreciated, which PADs are you auditioning with your Wilsons?I found the Aqueous Anniversary to be a fine value and the Dominus Ferox nearly incomparable with most speaker... 
anyone care to comment re: WP-8?
I have owned my W/P 8s since November but have refrained from commenting about them untiI I felt I had sufficient experience with them.I have owned every W/P since the 3/2 up to the 8s but not exclusively. I have tried several alternatives includi...

Rhyno, I ended up with a combination Ref MM phono cables, Ref XL V or XL SS ICs depending on the components connected and Ref XL SS SC. These are all TA's latest "MM" technology as XL has now simply become a model designation in the Reference seri...

After much auditioning of cables for my new W/P 8s including Audioquest Sky/Everest, Synergistic Apex, JPS Aluminata, Virtual Dynamics Rev 2.0, my reference Cardas GR and various Tranparent Audio products, I chose the TAs even before I knew that t... 
Transparent XL V speaker cable used for SS amp?
Vectosa, Transparent will reconfigure the networks of your XL V to XL SS free of charge if you are the original owner which you should definitely do. It makes a big difference. They will want to know your amp and speakers so they can precisely mat... 
Watt Puppy 7 with Pass X250.5?
Audiooracle, I saw recently that Joe D'Appolito, knowingly called "Paul DiAppolito" by that other unbiased sage of Usher speaker technology Aintitgr8, changed the tweeter and midrange of his speakers to beryllium and has been driving his Ferrari r... 
Wilsons with Cardas or JPS?
As I said, Cardas GR and W/Ps are inherently musical and satisfying but with the more linear and extended frequency response of the 7s over the 6s and again with the 8s over the 7s I could hear more information at the frequency extremes but it rol... 
Watt Puppy 7 with Pass X250.5?
Used W/P 7s are an excellent value and will perform very well with a Pass 250.5. I am presuming that you do not have easy access to hearing the speakers or you would have done so already. If you have to go on brand reputation you cannot go wrong w...
