Grand Prix - Wilson - Zanden

As I have said before, I was not a fan of Wilson speakers until they came out with their latest iterations. The treble is under control and I am now a convert. When you look (and listen) around at other $12,000 - $15,000 speakers, you quickly realize what a bargain the new Sophia is. They are not far behind the Sashas at half the price. The Zanden components are fine performers though I am taken aback by their pricing. I think they have a low value to cost ratio. The turntable and rack are by Grand Prix. Science in the service of sound.
