The MAXX’s low frequency enclosure is constructed from a high-density, phenolic

resin based composite. This composite meets and exceeds the highest of ANSI test stan-

dards for its use, while offering very tight tolerances, high hardness, uniform density, and

dimensional stability. In the

construction of the MAXX,

Wilson Audio uses two types

of composites dubbed “X”

material and “M” material.

These strategic combinations

of X and M materials are used

in the two midrange modules,

resulting in the most inert

enclosures yet produced. X

material is used exclusively in

the woofer and tweeter mod-

ules.

The high hardness of

this composite not only offers

excellent acoustical proper-

ties, but it also provides an

ideal surface for painting.

A d h e s i v e

Wilson Audio has conducted exhaustive research into the best adhesives to perma-

nently bond our speaker enclosures. This is an often-overlooked element crucial to the
