Wilson Audio/Luxman/Innuous/MSB - T.H.E. Show 2019

[Ron Resnick]

Alex and Fabio of Alma Music & Audio hosted three rooms. Wilson Audio TuneTots fronted the smallest of Alma’s systems on display.










The TuneTots were driven by the Luxman 509 Integrated amplifier. An Innuous ZEN Mk3 streamed music to an MSB Discrete DAC with full power supply.

I personally have very little interest in computer speakers or stand-mounted speakers or satellite speakers. But I do want to give Wilson Audio credit for creating tiny speakers which perform and sound like at the very least much larger stand-mounted speakers.

If you want ultra high sound quality speakers for your computer or maybe even for a small bedroom system Wilson Audio TuneTots are the speakers you want to buy.

Just because they say Wilson on the label? I don't think so, Ron.

“. . . tiny speakers which perform and sound like at the very least much larger stand-mounted speakers.”

 

[spiritofmusic]

There are quite a few alternatives that do that very thing.

For me they were really one of the surprises at The Show

Ron calls them Tiny Tots. Someone else has called them Tater Tots. And I've also heard them called Tune Tots. Great job by Wilson, eh. I guess the sound is what matters.

You’re blaming Wilson for the fact that people don’t know the name of the speaker ?

 

[bazelio]

Yeah.

They are named TuneTots. I apologize for mis-naming them Tiny Tots.

 

[Steve williams]

Yeah.

I believe the Tot's are being rated probably a little too high over what I would expect the Luxman to contribute, along with a hell of a digital front end. The Luxman has some features that cannot be found in almost any other gear. I can't fully advocate for them as I'm not sure if I like the circuits of theirs and such, but they do a couple things correct that 99.999% of companies do not.

Do continue.

I'll tell you what, take a look on the back and see if you notice anything different.

Could you just share your insights instead?

 

[Bruce B]

Could you just share your insights instead?

Seriously?? This is like a school playground!!

 

[bazelio]

What's the use case for A/B speaker binding posts? But OK... balanced and unbalanced options. Is that it? Many units provide input options, preamp outs, tape loops. I thought we were talking about things done correctly in the circuit that would affect sound.

 

[Folsom]

Nope, there's a little something going on between the binding posts per channel and the RCA's; or rather there isn't something going on between them.
