Notice how all the drivers are pointed exactly at my ears for true perfectly time aligned absolutely on axis listening customized for my ear height and listening distance. My ear height is just 36". The lowest ear height in the tables is 34". No other speaker that I know of provides this level of fine tuning to your ears. Again, in the third and fourth pics notice just how well the XVX fits my room. My room is 40' long. The XVX is deep and narrow. Absolutely perfect for my long narrow room of 15.5' in width. The XVX has an upper and lower block Chronometer and if you look carefully just inside the gantry in the fifth pic you can see the settings. The beautiful wheel seen in the last pic with its small protruding "thingamajig" or handle provides for the fore and aft adjustment of the upper block for ear height and ear distance from the speaker, according to the Table. The setting is A13.

I wiped off the white residue powder around the rivet in the final pic with a very soft cloth. It's gone.
I can only summarize with this sentence:

if I had the money right now to buy them, it would be the only speaker that would make me betray McIntosh without thinking twice.

Excuse me if I allow myself, just give me a nod:
what discounts could one expect from Wilson?
