Pre-Watt/Puppy Vs were terribly bright with solid-state to my ears. Forgotten the model name (edit - Duette) of their first monitors, but to my ears they were simply 'bad' sounding speakers.
Everything I've heard from Wilson since has been much, much better, including the Cub IIs I had for a couple of years and would happily own again. Has been a couple of years since I've heard any new Wilsons but am thinking a pair of Sophia 2s or 3s would be a terrific addition.
One of the biggest drawbacks to our hobby these days is the difficulty of listening to speakers. So few good brick & mortar listening venues. That is why forums like AAf are so important.
