stamped in the round top of the spike. The spikes should be screwed in all the way, until they are hand
tight. Use the 7/16” Wrench to tighten the spike to the enclosure. Do not over tighten spikes.
Section 3.2—Alexia V Propagation Delay Adjustment
Listening Position
The Alexia V time alignment design and unique architecture accounts for different listening dis-
tances (away from the speakers) and listening ear heights (measured distances from the floor to your
ear). For each distance/ear height combination there is a custom alignment geometry.
To make correct in-home set up of the Alexia V possible without test equipment, Wilson Audio has
provided the correct geometric time domain alignment for different distance/ear height combinations.
This information can be found in the Time Alignment Charts in Section 6. By measuring the distance
from the speaker to your ear when seated in the listening position (measured on the floor from the
bottom/front of the woofer to directly below the ear canal), as well as height of the listener’s ear (the
distance from the floor to the center of the ear canal while comfortably sitting), you will be able to align
the Alexia V so that it is extremely accurate in the time domain for your personalized installation.
Alignment Procedure
Locate the Time Alignment Charts in Section 6. These tables contain critical information that will
guide you to position the Upper Arrays for optimized propagation delay accuracy.
The rear of the Upper Array assembly rests on a specific step on the Alignment Block. The Time
Alignment Charts also contain information on the front-to-back alignment of the Upper Array. The
