VOICING
)
The Alexandria® is unmatched in its ability to reproduce the musical event. It is truly state of the art.
However, room acoustics and boundary interactions affect the sound of a loudspeaker to such a large degree that
poor setup can seriously degrade your enjoyment of even the finest loudspeaker.
Therefore we offer the following section, which will present some guidelines on room acoustics and their
interactions with loudspeakers. While will also outline some detailed suggestions on the setup of the Alexandria®,
we strongly suggest that you have your local Wilson Audio dealer perform the final speaker “voicing” with you.
Wilson dealers are specially trained in setting up Wilson loudspeakers and will ensure that you realize the full value
of your purchase.

EUTRALITY
The “Zone of Neutrality” is an area in your room where the speakers will sound most natural. This loca-
tion is where the speakers interact the least with adjacent room boundaries. It is important to have a clear working
space while determining the Zone of Neutrality.
The following is a simple method to locate the Zone of Neutrality within your listening enviroment:
1. Stand against the wall BEHIND the location where you intend to position your Alexandrias. Speaking
in a moderately loud voice and at a constant volume, project your voice out into the room. Your voice
will have an overly heavy, “chesty” quality because of your proximity to the rear wall.
2. While speaking, slowly move out into the room, progressing in a direction parallel to the side wall. It is
helpful to have another listener seated in the listening position to assist you during this process. Listen to
how your voice “frees up” from the added bass energy imparted by the rear wall boundary. Also notice
that your voice is quite spatially diffuse (to your assistant, your voice will sound spatially large and
difficult to localize) as you begin to ease away from the rear wall.
