Hey everyone,I just had the opportunity to spend time with the new Wilson Audio WATT/Puppy at Paul Money HiFi, and I wanted to share my thoughts with the community.For those who don't know, the WATT/Puppy was retired in 2011 after an iconic 25-year run. Wilson brought it back for their 50th anniversary, and it's been completely reimagined with their latest materials and engineering.What impressed me most was the time-alignment system and the build quality. The X-Material enclosures, the new RelCap AudioCapX-WA capacitors with copper end-spray — this isn't just nostalgia, it's a serious statement piece.I put together a video review covering:- Sound impressions across multiple genres- Build quality and materials- How it compares in Wilson's current lineup- Whether it's worth the investmentWould love to hear from anyone who's heard these or the original WATT/Puppy for comparison.

WATCH VIDEO HERE

Setup for this demo:- DCS Bartok DAC- Dan D'Agostino amplifierHappy to answer any questions about the experience.
