Extreme tech - extreme sound.

Wilson Audio have always been recognized for the ability with which they released astonishing pieces of technology and the extremely high quality of everything bearing their badge. The Wilson Alexandria X-2 loudspeaker is no different - it is well worthy of being called a flagship product not only in what Wilson products are concerned but in the whole industry as well.

The Wilson Alexandria X-2 can sit in line with other loudspeakers such as Von Schweikert or Bang & Olufsen, as we're speaking here so much more than a simple "box". Alexandria X-2 comes in at a hefty price of $135K per pair, but don't think that if you've just won the lottery you can go and buy some X-2s... sometimes you'll need to wait as much as 9 months in line as it seems that Wilson's work is highly appreciated by a lot of other people who are both willing to have such sound in their homes and can also afford to buy it.

Coming in no less than 15 standard finishes, the Wilson Alexandria X-2 can also be painted in custom colors for some serious extra money, but the greatness does not reside in the (great quality) finish but in the Aspherical Propagation Delay, a revolutionary and unique system that allows you to re-shape the way your X-2 looks and performs, as the three upper separated cabinets are moving in both a front-back direction (allowing time alignment) and vertically on the polar coordinate axis, for attaining the optimal dispersion over rooms of different sizes, from the smallest to the largest halls.

With a frequency response ranging between 18Hz and 22.5kHz, the Wilson Alexandria X-2 will offer you everything there is to your music recordings or in the most sophisticated movie soundtracks alike. Winner of multiple awards since 2004 until now, Wilson counts Warner Bros, CBS/Sony or Pixar among its customers.

We are just a few, but there are many of you, Softpedia users, out there.
