Wilson Raptor 3 speakers test – StereoLife

The verdict

It is difficult to assess a product of I don’t really know where it came from, who it is addressed to and whether it will survive on the market. However, sidestepping the fact that the brand is entirely new, Raptor 3s look really good. At no time did I have the feeling that I am dealing with a very cheap product, even though if compared to more expensive speakers, I could point out a few flaws. Whenever that happened, thee though that these are only budget, or even very budget monitors came to my mind. The 599 zł per piece price tag means that we have no tight to complain about some things. This does not mean that I immediately became a Wilson fan, but for someone, who does not feel the burning urge to be part of the crazy audio world, this is almost an ideal product. At least to start off with, because if someone, right at the outset, wants to own similar speakers from a higher class, there is a plethora of brands and models to choose from, but then they have to be prepared for a heftier price. For me, the Wilson Raptor 3 is an interesting option for those with small amps or even digital all-in-one systems such as Marantz Melody or Denon CEOL. These monitors will bring you no shame for normal, everyday listening. Even though they do seduce you at first and then turn out not to be so well-behaved and universal. Well, in return we get good dynamics and a good stereo scene. And if such a product can be delivered by a company who arrived on the market like a jack-in-a-box, then who are we to complain?
