Cabling made enough difference that prospective buyers might want to borrow a few different brands for experimentation. For example, the Linn Silver interconnects that sound great with my Falcon Gold Badge speakers were too insistent, too energetic in the treble range for long-term use with the Wilsons. My Belden-wire-based interconnects were a better choice for the Sabrina Vs. Because the speakers present a low-impedance load in music’s power range, bass response and solidity benefitted from larger-gauge speaker cables. I used Nordost Flatline copper for most listening sessions, because it delivered strong bass response with a smoother top end. And even though the Wilsons had nothing to do with this, it was frustrating to discover that adding a new Ethernet router was a bad choice, with extra noise and hash from digital. The Sabrina Vs are not overly fussy, but they definitely are revealing, and you may need to take some time finding your perfect combination of ancillary equipment.

A final consideration is dialing in the listening angle. Treble response from the CSC tweeter is low in distortion, but I did need to do some placement work to make it sound its best. Using the WASP method, I had no trouble placing the speaker in my listening room, getting good midrange and bass response, coupled with fine soundstaging and imaging. But when listening to the speaker on axis, with the tweeter facing my listening position, the treble was a bit sharp and peaky, so I ended up having the speaker fire straight into the room, with no toe-in and the grilles on. This resulted in the smoothest treble response, and I would encourage owners to take some time and fine-tune the amount of treble that suits your taste. To be completely fair, the treble sounded better and better over time, so some of this may be a result of the copper capacitors needing more run-in time.
