chat and catch up.
~WARNING~
Equipment Protection Needed!
Hurricane season is upon us so there is no better time than now to properly
protect your equipment! General purpose and inexpensive power strips will not
fully protect sensitive audio/video components from damaging power spikes.
And they cannot filter out the everyday electronic interference from your
home's electrical wiring, phone line, and cable TV connections that can hurt
your system's performance. Also, beware of damages caused when your
equipment is hooked up to whole home generators. Come in and let us help
you choose the right protection for your A/V components.

Our Favorites
The best amplifier will be able to play everything in your
music library loud enough AND it will reveal the subtle
shifts in dynamics and rhythm. It can also reveal the small
inflections in guitar and piano, a singer's voice, and the inner
details of a soundtrack.
A good loudspeaker creates the illusion of being at a
musical performance and lets you hear the emotional
message that the performer has woven into the music.
At Wilson Audio, superb sound & attractive design are an
integral part of our speaker selection process. We hand
select and audition speakers from around the U.S., Europe
and Canada to sell in our retail store.
Our most popular amplifier is the NAD 326BEE. This
integrated amp is priced right and delivers! And for
unparalleled performance, our best sounding amplifier is the
Audio Research, Ref 75. Come in to listen to these chosen
amps and trust your ears when choosing your favorite!
Our best selling speaker, living up to all the magazine
reviews and one of the best value’s in audio is the
Magneplanar 1.7. Another favorite is the System Audio
Aura 10 known for producing almost as large as sound as
the Maggies with pinpoint focus.
NEWEST ADDITIONS - 2 New Speakers
System Audio Explorer Master – Described as an “acoustic
masterpiece” System Audio spent 10 years creating the
Explorer Master. With a newly designed crossover network
and improved acoustics, the Master is designed for those who
want to spoil themselves with sound.
Remember, speakers are the most variable part of an audio
system so if you’ve never heard them personally, it’s had to
make a decision. So come in to listen and decide on your
favorite!
AMPLIFIERS
Spendor S3/5R2 – Attractive and solidly constructed, this
BBC style speaker lives up to its Spendor name. It boasts
improvements in low frequency articulation, dynamics &
transparency.
The function of a home stereo amplifier is to power the
speakers connected to it. It is important to decide what
kind of stereo set up is desired before attempting to choose
an amplifier. How much power needed is dependent on
the speakers’ sensitivity and your music, personal listening
preferences, and how far away you are when listening.
We invite you to hear our new speaker selections!
