Some very interesting comparisons made with the Wilson Audio speakers. Overall I agree with the observations.

Ive read through this entire thread and see that you did not end up buying any Wilson Benesch speakers even after your great demos.  Why was that?

That's a very good question. I invested most of my money in my (at the time) new business Shunyata UK.

I still think the Resolutions are extraordinary speakers and it has to be said they were almost perfect paired with the OdA in my listening space.

This was certainly a wise move! Shunyata are IMHO the best power cables! I am less familiar with the rest of their offering but I am sure they are up there with the very best in everything they do.

Cheers,
Bernard

I haven’t tried the Resolution, but for what it’s worth I use my ACT one evo in a room that is 3.5 by 7m with a high ceiling of asymetric shape.

The speakers are along the long wall and about 60 cm from the wall with a bass trap behind them.

The result is absolutely outstanding.

Cheers,
Bernard

Any W-B Endeavour owners here? I listened to this speaker at an audio show couple of years back and I told the distributor that it was a best sounding room by quite a margin. How do they sound with Devialet? There’s no SAM profile for Endeavour either?  From what I have read so far, SAM can really improve W-B speakers in bass department...
