Looks like Wilson hit the ground running about 20 Dec. 2016, with a flurry of quickie "reviews".  Here's a link to the Absolute Sound roll-out/"review":

Wilson claim all drivers are "proprietary".  Blurb says they use the same 7" "lower-midrange" drivers as several other Wilson models. none of which I've heard anything good from, especially the lower-mids.  I understood they finally went to a soft dome tweeter a while back, with predictable improvements.  I would have guessed they would go with the newest SvcanSpeak line, many of which are actually paper, I think, though that hardly seems "tech-y" enough for Wilson.

Again, the original WAMMS made BY FAR the best sound I've heard from Wilson, and I'm still looking forward to hearing these fed by master tape.
