How do you update a classic? By almost any measure, the Alexia has been one of Wilson’s most successful products. The physicians’ maxim of Primum non nocere (first do no harm) certainly applies here. On the other hand, Wilson’s technology has continued to evolve and advance in the areas of drivers, crossover analysis and design, time-alignment accuracy, and composite materials research.
Alexia’s modular design, with each of the three drivers mounted in their own individual enclosure, facilitates extremely fine adjustment within the time domain. The midrange and tweeter are adjusted independently of the woofer enclosure such that the three drivers can be precisely aligned for each unique installation.
Like all recent Wilson designs, the Alexia Series 2 is the beneficiary of Wilson’s state-of-the-art composite research, the heart of which is the laser vibrometer. This measurement tool allows Wilson’s engineers to see minute vibrations—on the order of a billionth of a meter.
Wilson Audio Sasha W/P
• Used
• List Price: $26,900
• Used: $14,500
The Wilson Audio Sasha W/P represents a landmark achievement in high-end loudspeaker design, marking the evolutionary successor to the legendary WATT/Puppy series that defined premium audio for decades. Originally launched at $26,900-$28,900 per pair, the Sasha W/P was revolutionary for actually improving performance while lowering the price compared to its predecessor. This three-way, reflex-loaded floorstanding speaker features a 1″ titanium inverted-dome tweeter, 7″ pulp-composite midrange cone, and dual 8″ polymer woofer cones sourced from Wilson’s flagship models. The midrange and tweeter drivers are identical to those used in the much more expensive MAXX 3 speakers, representing true trickle-down technology from Wilson’s reference designs.
Built using Wilson’s proprietary ultra-low-resonant, high-density composites that are cross-braced to eliminate cabinet resonance, with each material exceeding ANSI test standards for dimensional stability and uniform density, the Sasha W/P delivers warm, densely textured, and rich tone color, while simultaneously sounding more resolved and detailed than its predecessors. Measuring 44″ tall by 14″ wide by 21.25″ deep and weighing 197 pounds each, with 91dB sensitivity and 4-ohm nominal impedance, these speakers offer truly full-range system capability to reproduce orchestral climaxes without strain in a relatively compact package. The Sasha W/P’s unique adjustable upper module allows for precise time-alignment optimization, ensuring the most accurate midrange and high-frequency response possible for your specific listening environment.
