Section 1.1—WASP
An instructional video outlining the Wilson Audio Setup Procedure ( WASP) can be found here:
.
The proper positioning of your new Alexia V within your room is critical
in order to extract its formidable performance envelope. When carefully followed, the WASP has proven
to be the most effective method for setting up Wilson Audio loudspeakers. Your authorized Wilson Audio
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 includ-
ed 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 loud-
speakers. 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 another listener seated in the listening position to
assist you during this process. Listen to how your voice “frees up” from the added bass
