Wilson Sophia III vs Sasha
My room was 28'x 24' and open to the lower level. I recently added a wall and the room is now 21'x 24'. It's furnished with a couch and two chairs. Heavy drapes are on all of the windows.

Bvdiman,I'm currently looking at all of my options. I'm going to contact my local dealer tomorrow and set-up an appointment to hear the Sasha's with my current electronics. Hopefully during my visit I will have the opportunity to compare my equipm...

Elberoth2I know Sophia 3s are great speakers. My priorities are spacing between instruments, imaging, and soundstage. I submit Sophia's perform these task well. My delima is how best to spend 10-15K? If Sasha's are significantly better at performi...

Lenny_zwik,Did you work directly with Rives to design your room treatment. My priorities are for the speakers to disappear, if it's a good recording... image depth, width, height, with spacing between instruments. I was wondering if the Sasha's wo...

Branislav,3 different opinions and that's what makes this "hobby" fun. I have listened to Sasha's but in a very expensive system. I asked the question to hear different perspectives, with the realization that I need to make the decision.Psjulian a... 
Where to go after Devore Fidelity Super 8's
I went from Devore Gibbon 8s to Audio Physic Virgo IIIs. Currently have Wilson Audio Sophia IIIs and plan on getting Wilson Audio Sasha's. 
Upgrade from Densen
What is the cost in US dollars of the B-275? I'm looking to sell my Densen B-250. There appears to be few audiophiles that are familiar with Densen in the US. 
Subwoofer that can blend with Wilson Sophias?
I paired a Martin Logan Depth i with Sophia IIs. The sound was very musical and the Depth i was quick enough to keep up with the Sophia's.
