The triumph of marketing over actual experience; with the lie assisted by typical consumer preference. They WANT the little speaker to be "better" than the big speaker. When someone puts enough money into spreading a lie they want to be true...it becomes "true" in their minds.

tbrucev359, you have been reported. Do us all a favor and talk a long walk off a short pier.

Actually the wilson's are $200k a pair, and yes they are ugliest things I could imagine.. tho you all should check out the article on stereophile's (yuck) website. The ridiculous arguement that goes in the comment afterwards, well... is just sad... i get the feeling that the writer has a severe case of buyers remorse, but refuses to admit it.

Seems you misplaced #187 as well.

I don't care how good they sound, I don't care how rich I am $200k for a set of speakers is insane, plus what it would cost to drive them. In a true blind test I wonder how many people would pick them over some lesser speaker?
