Wilson Audio Sabrina . . . I'm smitten. Should I consider others?
6 months since your last update, did you settle on a pair of speakers? Personally been trying to upgrade from a 15 year old pair of speakers for about 5 years now really gave me an appreciation and understanding for the law of diminishing returns!
