most effective method for setting up Wilson loudspeakers. Your authorized Wil-

son dealer is trained in this process, and is the best resource for you to ensure 

your loudspeakers are set up properly. 

Viewing the video is the best way to learn how to properly employ WASP, 

but we have also included an outline of it here. 

Zone of Neutrality: Left and Right Channel

The “Zone of Neutrality” is an area in your room where the speakers will 

sound most natural. This location 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 environment: 

1.   Stand against the wall BEHIND the location where you intend 

to position your loudspeakers. 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 sidewall. It is helpful to have anoth-
er 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.

3.  At some point during your progression forward into the room, 

you will observe a sonic transition in your voice; it will sound 
more tonally correct and less spatially diffuse (your assistant 
can now precisely localize the exact origin of your voice). When 
you hear this transition, you have entered the inner edge of 
the Zone of Neutrality. Place a piece of tape on the floor to 
mark this location. Although it will vary from room to room, in 
most rooms the zone begins between two and a half to three 
feet from the rear wall.

4.  Continue to walk slowly away from the rear wall. After some 

distance, usually one to two feet past the first piece of tape, 
you will begin to hear your voice lose focus and appear to 
reflect (echo) in front of you. This is caused by the return of the 
room’s boundary contribution; your voice is now interacting 
with the opposite wall. At the point where you begin to hear 
the reflected sound of your voice, you have reached the outer 
edge of the Zone of Neutrality. Place a piece of tape on the 
floor and mark this location. The distance between the “inner”
