The most recent ultra-high-end model on this list, the Wilson Audio WAMM Master Chronosonic was first announced just a few months ago. The $685,000 flagship is company founder Dave Wilson’s magnum opus after more than 40 years in business. The popularity and stellar reputation of the Wilson Audio brand has set high expectations for the Chronosonic, which sports nine drivers, five of which are adjustable. Wilson’s approach to audio is about “time coherence,” meaning each driver must be tuned to the unique room acoustics given the speaker’s placement to ensure the sound waves reach the ear precisely at the correct moment. Those lucky enough to purchase one of the masterpieces—limited to just 70 examples—will begin his or her new sonic journey with a trip to Utah to experience the Wilson factory in person.
