I find the Wilson's have a clearly different house sound, which to me sound very forward (i.e. midrange and vocals relatively emphasised). It has given me a new take on hundreds of tracks that I have grown used to listening over the years in the Meridian sound.

It is entirely one's taste I guess. I knew what I was getting into and am pleased.
An update - The Wilsons ended up being too forward for my taste so I used the Trinnov's target curve to attenuate mids a little. Still forward wrt the Ms but not gratingly so...
