Wilson Audio Alexia V Loudspeakers
Wilson Audio is well known for its continuous pursuit of “Excellence in All Things™” and persistent R&D advancements. As development finished on Alexx V® and as Alexia® Series 2 reached its five year anniversary, Wilson Audio’s Engineers were put to the test to see how far they could push Alexia’s performance envelope. What unfolded is nothing short of remarkable. More than thirty areas of improvement were identified and refined. Benefiting from the enormous evolutions found in Chronosonic XVX® and Alexx V, Alexia V truly sits upon the shoulders of giants.

Form Follows Function
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 Audio Acoustic Diodes
Included with Alexia V is a complete set of Wilson Audio Acoustic Diode. An all-new spike system launched with Alexx V, which has been completely upgraded from our standard spike system, and features a novel combination of austenitic stainless steel and V-Material. This coupling system was created by Wilson Audio’s Special Applications Engineering (WASAE) division and has superlative vibration management that reveals far greater dynamic nuances across the entire frequency spectrum.
Leveling
There is now a seamlessly integrated Bubble Level on the top of the woofer cabinet nested in the V-Material insert which makes leveling the loudspeaker much easier and more convenient.
CSC Tweeter
First introduced in the Alexx V, Wilson’s Convergent Synergy Carbon (CSC) Tweeter now finds a place in the Alexia V. This unique and complex carbon fiber rear-wave chamber is constructed entirely in-house on one of our many dedicated 3D printers. Listening to the results of this special tweeter, one can’t help but get lost in its ability to present an unprecedented level of ambient retrieval and exceptional harmonic expression.
QuadraMag Midrange
The integration of the tweeter and midrange is an absolutely critical element to accurate sound reproduction. Originally, when Alexia Series 2 was introduced, it utilized the same cellulose fiber/carbon composite midrange unit as is found in the WAMM Master Chronosonic. This midrange has served Alexia well over the years. After extensive experimentation and system refinements the Alnico (Aluminum-Nickel-Cobalt) QuadraMag has been successfully incorporated into the design and selected as the main midrange for the Alexia V. First developed for the Chronosonic XVX, the QuadraMag midrange provides a tonally rich and life-like sound.
Enclosure Volume
Along with several aesthetic refinements to the external enclosures there is a noticeable increase with internal volume as well. The Mid enclosure internal volume has been increased by 6.4% to allow a more open sounding midrange. The Woofer enclosure internal volume has also increased by 8.9% compared with Alexia Series 2 effectively creating deeper low frequency reproduction and faster transient settling.
Crossover
Each custom capacitor used in both of Alexia V’s crossovers has been wound and finished at Wilson Audio’s in-house capacitor manufacturing department (Reliable Capacitors). These unique capacitors are made to industry leading tight tolerances. The AudioCapX-WA capacitors, along with fine-tuning in the crossover topology, have contributed to a new standard in loudspeaker low-level resolution.
