    So what I love about this channel is multi layered.
    Firstly, it’s not trying to sell me something. It’s more akin to having a buddy pop round to the house and regale you with his latest adventures and finds. That’s crucial for me… I’m not big on channels that tell you all about what is essentially a very niche and subjective hobby, making you feel like you are missing out on something. What this channel does so wonderfully is pique one’s interest… provides food for thought. It’s led me personally to some wonderful discoveries such as Wallen Bink, DS audio etc without me feeling force fed.
    But what I’ve really enjoyed (and DK and I talk / chat almost every other day so I’ve already shared this thought with him), is that it’s been fantastic watching the channel grow.
    This is a busy man, with a busy job and other hobbies keeping him equally busy besides audio, and yet to find the time and produce great content speaks volumes.
    He isn’t just bitching and moaning about Mofi, or taking pot shots at Shabby Road Half Speed Disasters, Ja, and then uploading click bait. This is a music lovers channel, without all the aspirational BS so frequently uploaded by others.
    So Kudos to DK for expanding on the Wilson video and last weeks drop-dead brilliant video at SuperSense.
    I think you’ll be hard pushed to find another channel with such a fluid and open approach to sharing cool finds, ideas and companies.
    Records, speakers, CD’s, transatlantic relocations, cartridges, coffee, bikes, record shops, city walk throughs, hifi shows, manufacturers, artisans, camera’s…. There are far far worse ways to spend 30 or so minutes on a Sunday!
    Hats off to you DK… how you manage to fit this all in astounds me, each and every time.

      Absolutely. It all gels. I’d love to know how many other manufacturers keep track of each and every speaker they ever made and sold, for I doubt it’s many…

    New sub to your channel. I caught your appearance on Rachel Ghost stream. What a fine tour and such an impressive company. I purchased a pair of pre-owned Sabrinas this year. I just love them. It's not the flagship but the DNA is there! Look forward to viewing your previous videos. Greg

      Very cool, thank you Greg! Yes, Wilson truly is a cut above others in the industry. I don’t think people realize it as much as they perhaps should… Sabrinas are an absolute smash 💥, a genuine super speaker!!! Thanks for joining the channel!

    great tour. thanks for sharing.
    i've seen a bunch of Wilson videos. but non of them showed, mentioned, or even recommend what equipment should go with the speakers !?. too bad.
    having said that. i noticed that they have Mark Levinson and NAGRA .but nothing was said about them.

    Of course you'd have lifetime product support, you've invested so much money in speakers, it should last at least two lifetimes.

      Thanks for tuning in! Touring the facility, meeting all the team members, the level of detail, etc. WA would simply not be able to do that staying true to their North Star. Sure, they could move production to a low wage country, but that's not what WA is about. They really care about their employees...

      @maurice4407 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree that WA should stay true to their mission, but maybe do something like ZU audio with their dirty weekend offers. An old technology that basically cost nothing to produce, since all the R&D was paid for…..

      Why, theirs is a high end unique product. Free enterprise.
      Would be very boring if everyone was producing the same things.
      They are entitled to be compensated for their craft.
      Exotic products cost money.

    An honest constructive feedback for you. Many of your video could be half the length. You have too much fluff and lot of empty words , greetings, pleasantries etc. I alway end up closing out a few minutes in as you don’t get to the point.
