we tread different paths - all depends on our psyche, genetics, and what we learn - but, should we be influenced by this?-
"Well return to this and other aspects of the X-2s sound, but lets first consider the loudspeaker itself. The Alexandria X-2 is so named because it represents designer David Wilsons accumulated knowledge of loudspeaker design, just as the great library at Alexandria was the repository of all knowledge in the ancient world. This is Wilson Audios statement productthe best loudspeaker it knows how to build without regard to cost. And that cost is a considerable $148,000 per pair, a staggering sum for a loudspeaker of any kind. However, the design, build-quality, execution, and finish are commensurately staggering; they dont get any better than this. Ive looked closely at several other speakers costing north of a hundred large and discovered that theyre often simply larger versions of the companys lesser speakers. That is, they are scaled up in cabinet size and driver count, but not in technology, design innovation, or build-quality." - from the wilson audio site.
