A few years back, Wilson had a reputation that Magico currently has: a cold, analytical speaker, as emotional as a Teutonic wet nurse, made for guys with money rather than taste. I kind of felt the same way about Wilson, wondering how people can pay such big bucks for this type of non-involving sound, even when driven by tubes. But 3 or 4 years ago, even before the silk dome tweeter models, something changed. Even Art Dudley liked them.
And now with the new XLF and Alexias, which I think are superb, musicality has increased further. Sure there are other great speakers such as MBL, Tad, and Vivid that one can find more to their taste. But I wonder if anyone finds Wilsons amusical.
