Section 4.1—Spiking Alexia V
Your Dealer is trained in the art and science of the Wilson Audio Setup
Procedure (WASP) outlined in Section 1. Before the spike/diode assemblies
are attached to the bottom of Alexia V, the set up and fine tuning of your
loudspeaker should be completed. Before spiking Alexia V, use masking
tape to carefully mark their location.
Wilson Audio Acoustic Diode “Spike” Assembly
• Gather the threaded spikes and install the nut to about one
thread from the unthreaded point. This will allow for greater
movement when leveling the loudspeaker later.
• Screw the spike/nut combo into the diode housing until the nut
is against the diode. Be careful that the nut does not turn while
inserting and threading spikes into the diode.
Note: Do not tighten the nut against the diode yet. You will need to un-
screw them when you level the Alexia V later.
• Place the set screw into the other end of the diode with the
Allen head toward the spike. This will ensure that, if for any rea-
son you have to remove your Alexia V spikes, you will be able to
withdraw the set screw safely using the supplied Allen wrench.
Screw the set screw into the diode until it stops turning.
• Place the Acoustic Diode assemblies out of the traffic pattern
until they are needed during the installation.
