So here is a description of what looks different on Alexia 2 starting at the floor and working upward:

• The larger mechanical diode and spike are from the Alexx
  
• The front woofer cabinet baffle is raked 3 degrees
  
• The woofer grille is squared off on the bottom.
  
• The curve on the sides is softened slightly.
  
• On the back, the screwed in metal plate that covers the resisitors/crossover is replaced by an easily removable glass cover ala Alexx.
  
• The port is centered on the rear panel and edges rounded over. Hardware is flush mount.
  
• Spike tracks and stairstep are isolated by W material inserts.
  
• Where cables exit the bass cabinet to connect the upper modules, there is the same stainless steel strain relief as is used in WAMM and ALEXX.
  
• The midrange cabinet is more rounded with very slightly different dimensions.
  
• The tweeter enclosure is considerably more rounded on the edges.
  
• The spike track in the top of the tweeter has twice as many positions over the same range.
  

The most important changes are internal, though certainly many of these external things have a direct affect on the sound too.

Hmmmmm!
