| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. A friend just loaned me his 19” Sony Trinitron. I plugged it in and the Sony flickered to life. I don’t know why everyone loves these. The screen is small. Its dim (4,5 bits) It’s very heavy. The color range looks compressed and lacks accuracy. A... | |
| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. Isn't the obvious question why is he reviewing/modding and slagging a 13yr old iteration of the WWP? Is there really enough commercial constituency to make it worth his while? It just doesn't seem relevant. FWIW I heard older models and was not i... | |
| McIntosh MX 200 Review (short) Unless its an Apple thing, I can't get the network function to work.My iPAd loaded the URL and I can see the settings but cannot make any changes to them. Maybe try a different browser. Still loving the sound (and picture). | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy When I heard them they were without a sub and I didn’t feel them “needing” one, as neither do the 801s that they will replace. That said I do use one- a VMPS Larger for very low bass energy that is only there on select tracks - and will do likewis... | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy This was/is pretty much my experience and take on the WWPs vs the other speakers I heard and the Sasha V. The new Puppies may cannibalize the Wilson lineup . | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy I listened to the V’s and WWP back to back- both sounded great. I would be happy with either but on that day the WWP’s sounded “better” (different rooms- but both nothing special btw- glass, open sided with no treatment ). YMMV | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy I stopped reading Stereophile several years ago for no particular reason, so haven’t seen the review, but I just ordered a pair of WWP after auditioning several other of the usual suspects (Focal, B&W, Sonus Faber etc.). I listen to a wide va... | |
| McIntosh MX 200 Review (short) My bad- 105D | |
| McIntosh MX 200 Review (short) I’ll be interested in your take and whether I’m just imagining it! | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid While awaiting the WWPs next month, I just got a McIntosh MX 200 pre with only one set of balanced outs so had to un-biwire the 801s. They never sounded better. Not sure which made the difference but the soundstage is very 3 dimensional now. Audi... | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid If you read my circumstances , that was not possible but clearly the preferred route. That said I am no longer afraid- I'm excited. I have confidence that the WWPs exceed my 801s by every important metric. | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid I only drink vodka. | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid I heard it at the dealer with McIntosh and the sound was liquid and holographic. | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Yes dealer has already offered to fly down to Nassau and set them up - my expense of course. No point in not having them set up properly. Can then play with amps- Mac, Krell and Crown. Then there’s the cable decision 🙄 | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Just bought new Puppies today. Get them in Feb. |
