Wind-swept fields and towering arches served as points of inspiration for the more svelte lines and thoughtfully distilled design of Alexia V. Alexia V’s enclosures are crafted from many exotic and proprietary materials. Included in these handcrafted enclosures are: the latest versions of XMaterial & S-Material, V-Material strategically nested throughout it’s form, carbon fiber, aerospace grade aluminum, austenitic stainless steel, and gold connections throughout the entire signal path. Each element has been carefully chosen and optimized for its distinctive role in extraordinary sound reproduction.
V-Material is nested in the top of the woofer and midrange enclosures for increased vibration mitigation and control. By using X-Material throughout all three modules, and methodically refining the internal bracing and panel thicknesses, Wilson Audio’s Engineers have enhanced enclosure damping to a new standard for this product category. Wilson’s research has found SMaterial to be a superior material option for midrange driver coupling and provides an open and accurate sonic presentation.
Exhaustive research into Alexia’s time alignment capabilities yielded results that have lead to every driver being better aligned with each other and more on-axis with the listener. From your recordings you will experience more resolved micro-details and tighter time alignment accuracy at all listening positions.
Sculpted to blend with the new form, and increase structural integrity, the midrange enclosure alignment bridge better reinforces the module external frame and is a more massive construction using a combination of X-Material and aluminum. A delicate balance is formed within the lines of Alexia V. In some areas mass was increased while in others material was removed. The cutout that reduces unwanted pressure between the midrange and woofer enclosures found on the top of the Sasha DAW® woofer blades is now a part of Alexia V. The more aerodynamic looking tweeter module has been reshaped to comfortably house the larger Convergent Synergy Carbon™ tweeter.
