Alexia 2 Pics

Saw a couple of Wilson Alexia 2 pictures posted on FB so thought I would share them. Can't wait to hear this speaker.

They sure do their reveals in slow motion. Kinda makes ya lose interest. I was personally watching their social media pretty closely for a week or two but got bored. I didn't even see this, so thanks.

I'm trying to figure out.... how is the speaker any different appearing from v1?
I think what Marc is saying is that before, when Wilson would release a speaker, it was not this delayed here's a small pic, here's another small pic, here's some teaser info. I think I also noticed that lately since the WAMM, there have been teaser on teasers. But it is what it is. |

So here is a description of what looks different on Alexia 2 starting at the floor and working upward:
The most important changes are internal, though certainly many of these external things have a direct affect on the sound too. |

Hmmmmm! |
Looks like the base has a bit of a flare, the port is midline,the binding post section looks great.
I really like the resistor section. |
It is unlikely for Wilson to change for the sake of change or appearance. Maybe the drivers have also been upgraded.
I'm hoping the price does not drift north |
Now that preliminary specs for Alexia v2 are posted, I see this differences:
Alexia - specifications Sensitivity: 90 dB @ 1W @ 1m @ 1k Nominal Impedance: 4 ohms / minimum 2 ohms @ 80 Hz Frequency Response: 20 Hz – 32 kHz +/- 3 dB Approx. System Weight Per Channel: 256 lbs (116.12 kg) Alexia v2 - prelimimary specifications[ Sensitivity: 89 dB @ 1 Watt @ 1 meter @ 1kHz Nominal Impedance: 4 ohms / minimum 2.54 ohms @ 85 Hz Frequency Response: 19 Hz – 32 kHz +/- 3 dB Room Average Response [RAR] System Weight Per Channel: 260 lbs (117.93 kg) The sizes quoted for the drivers are the same for the original and the v2 Alexia. The WAMM tweeter is the same 1-inch size as the Alexia tweeter and Wilson materials seem to suggest Alexia v2 will have the WAMM tweeter. |
I heard Paragon might be having a Alexia 2 event in June. Unfortunately I will be in Europe and probably miss it. Maybe I will hear them when they hold a dCS event a couple weeks later.

Alexia 2 Video
Not sure which one yet, but Wilson could very well be my next speaker. I see they were using D'Agastino and VTL on the Alexia 2.
