Psyberpunk Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 (edited) Item: Sophia 2 Location: Canberra ACT Price: $8800 - near offers considered Item Condition: Good Reason for selling: Looking to try something new, possibly Hulgich Audio Duke or B&W 802 Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: I purchased these from another stereo net member and I’ve owned these for about a year now. I believe I’m the third owner. Sophia 2 where in production around 2006 - 2011. Serial numbers are 2425 and 2426. What can I say about these Wilson Audio Sophia 2 that haven’t been said before in plenty of glowing reviews. Amazing bass response and beautiful presence. The speakers stand 105cm, 32cm wide and 46cm deep. Each cabinet weighs 73kg. Finish is Fly Yellow and looks stunning. Drive-units: 1" (25mm) inverted titanium-dome tweeter, 7" (178mm) paper-cone midrange unit, 10" (254mm) aluminum-cone woofer. Frequency response: 29Hz-22.5kHz, +0/-3dB. Sensitivity: 89dB/2.83V/m. Impedance: 4 ohms nominal, 3 ohms minimum. Recommended power: >12Wpc. I have the original tools, manual and crates - so you are getting the complete package. I’d prefer these to be picked up as they are insanely heavy once snug in their crates. Alternatively if you can arrange a courier that will pick them up for you I’m happy work with that.

Al.M Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Are you sure want exchange these for other speakers mentioned, possibly resulting in a sideways move as the drivers and construction quality of these are superior to those other options. 1
poiu Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 I have to ask, that stunning timber behind them, where is that from? 1
Thunder_Snake Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 I don’t like yellow, but THAT is a fine yellow!

It might be Grass is Greener on the opposite side syndrome ?
Psyberpunk Posted February 20, 2019 Author Posted February 20, 2019 (edited) Hello - yeah I’m very much not sure about 802 I think that would be a mistake after considering. I hear plenty of good things about Avalon speakers, but those, like these are hens teeth. @poiu the timber are Sienna W acoustic panels made by Artnovion. Edited February 20, 2019 by Psyberpunk 1
