Wilson
Music and home theater are increasingly part of contemporary lifestyles. Until now, the visually pleasing architectural integration of sound into our home environments has meant accepting serious sonic compromises. If the loudspeaker is mounted in custom cabinets or sits on a bookshelf, diffraction comes into play. Early reflections from the adjacent surfaces compromise high frequencies, again wreaking havoc in the time domain and introducing grain and hash. Once again, the soundstage collapses into a flat, two dimensional image. The Wilson engineering team began with a concept: design a loudspeaker that could work in hostile sonic environments That didn’t mean “work acceptably.” The challenge was to create a product that would produce the signature Wilson sound in those settings: a wide deep soundstage in which instruments and voices occupied discrete, three-dimensional space. Voices would sound real, tonally accurate and coherent from top to bottom. Percussion would explode from a deep, grain-free background with believable dynamics and speed.
