Wilson Audio- The rest of the story
It’s been a couple of weeks and I’m amazed with the Sophia IIIs. Instead of using audiophile terms, let me sum the differences between the Sophia II’s and III’s. The III’s are just more musical! To me there are no better words to explain the diffe...

Musictime,I agree with you, none of my friends are familiar with Wilson Audio. I've been into music since I was 12 years old and I just hit my 45th birthday. I've owned many speakers (Klipsch, DeVorve, Artemis, Audio Physics) and I just love the s...

James63,It has been a while since I have listened to the Magico V2's, it would be easy to BS you, but I don't want to give you bad feedback. Compared to the Sophia II's, the III's offer greater bass impact, more texture in the mids, and a slight ...

Wpines,No company or manufacturing process is 100% perfect regardless of cost! There are problems with million dollar homes, expensive cars, and yes expensive speakers. It's my understanding the defect was the result of faulty glue from a supplier...

Rossman,Wilson was more than fair on the price of the upgrade!!! Well worth the additional cost.

French_fries,There are in deed many fine speakers out there and it comes to personal taste. I never say I own the best of the best, I prefer a more humble approach. I do believe it's important to recognize when a Company goes above and beyond of o...

Cbd0815,I agree with you, I had the opportunity to listen to Sasha's and Sophia 3's on two different systems. If I had enough money I would by the Sasha's, but I agree that there is a significant enough difference between the Sophia 2's and 3's to...

NolitanLet me reiterate that I believe Wilson Audio and my dealer will do everything to correct the situation. My research has led my to conclude that the cracks were the result of a bad glue. It was isolated and it's my understanding that Wilson ...

WeseixasIt's not poor performance, service , or quality. Prior to purchasing Sophia II's I heard rumors of Sophia 3's being in development,called Wilson directly and they denied anything was in the works. Less than 10 months later, the Sophia 3's!...

Missioncoonery,The problem with buying another line is I love the Wilson Sound...especially their dynamics.

James63Thanks for the advice and I understand about the used market value. I'm not well off, I got to this point after 20 years as an audiophile, trading and saving over the years to get where I am. $5000 is significant to me!

I was happy with my Sophia 2's; however the right speaker has developed a razor thin crack in the cabinet between the top and bottom portion of the speaker after only 10 months. Of course it's under warranty; however I have been given the option o...

I have the Sophia 2's, has anyone had the opportunity to compare the 2's vs the 3's. Most upgrades seem to be marketing and offer minor sonic changes. If anyone could provide insight into the sonic differences between them I would apreciate it! 
My findings on Magico V2.....what now?
JtimothyaI had AP Virgo III's and because of the price difference between the Virgo's and Sophia II's it's an unfair comparison.My wife wanted the Sophia II's after she heard them, so I will provide you her comments, "Wow, they sound live compared... 
Sophia 2/Magico V2 versus Sasha/Magico V3
MertI have already upgraded to Densen B-350 mono-amps and Densen B-250 preamp. In additon, I have upgraded all of my AC cords. The results is a more natural sounding system. My next step will be to upgrade from the Rega Apollo as the source.Keithr...
