Here we go again: Alexandria XLF

And how does Wilson justify the ~$50K increase? Sorry if it's been asked before
 
OK 30 grand then...
 
What finish are you opting for Stevie? Hehehehehe. :D
 
Thanks Debbie. Can I ask the question every audiophile thinks about, but no one asked yet? :) What was exactly the system that was used in these auditions? I can see only the Opus and the Siegfried.

Sure :)

Thanks, Debbie. Saw that yesterday. (Please also thank Jerron for me...he has been very responsive and helpful in answering my queries regarding the X-1 Series V upgrade which i intend to do in the future.)

You are welcome. I sent Jerron your kind comments :)
 
I had the pleasure yesterday of having been invited by Debbie Wilson to attend Dave Wilson's launch of the new XLF. It was a wonderful gathering with many people in attendance It was nice to see the entire Wilson team once again. The speaker was on static display beside the X-2 series ll in the same color along with a wonderful dissertation by son Daryl re a new Wilson app he had written for the iPhone and a very detailed synopsis by Dave as to what and why he did to the new XLF. It is slightly shorter than the X-2 series ll but much deeper it can be either front or rear ported and Dave gave reasons as to do one vs the other BUT never both ports open. All in all a wonderful evening. Thanks again to Wilson audio and Dave's explanation in his search for a new tweeter.
