In the August 2015 issue of HiFi News, Ken Kessler concludes: "...the Sabrina is the best-value Wilson speaker ever - and I've heard all of them since the first WATT. It sounds as 'big' as a speaker double its height and there isn't a trace of compression when blasting loudly. Indeed, it's so startlingly good that I almost considered swapping my Alexias for this more 'small room-friendly' alternative. It's truly sublime." 88/100 score.

has Ken Kessler ever disliked a Wilson speaker?

Has Harley or Fritz never gushed over a Magico speaker? Has Atkinson never gushed over a Revel speaker? Has Cordesman never gushed over a Pass amp (and he's always right to do so I might add [emoji3]).

What's the point? He likes the house sound and respects the entire Wilson team for their achievements.

Actually John said if he had to choose one speaker, it would be the Alexia. :D

But you have a valid point that Ken is familiar with the line.
 
I truly miss my Alexia's. I was thinking about that this morning. If I had a better, bigger room, they would still be here.
 
Thay might have hit the jackpot with this speaker.

I bet is a headache for Magico & YG. Great for the consumer though !
 
I really want to audition the Sabrina's and I hope they are being shown on active display at RMAF this year.
 
I have heard them they are pretty nice sounding quite musical,refined,clean. Probably better in a 2 channel setup but I'm considering them.

+1.

I heard them last week and I can't agree with you more. It was vary musical to my ears as well. They took 3 years to develop this brand and I think they pay off well with their sounds.

Wilson Audio has really dropped the ball in marketing these great loudspeakers. Meanwhile, congrats on the new toys HighEndGuy. They look great!
 
Nice!!!!
We have the same finish on our Sabrina's.
Every time time I listen to them I am blown away by how good they sound.
