Introduced in the Alexandria and subsequently employed in the MAXX
Series 2, the austenitic stainless steel pin system ensures non-resonant and reliable
grill attachment. The diffraction pad, which previously sat atop Sophia's baffle, is
now recessed flush to the façade. Problems of diffraction pad detachment are
nearly eliminated. Sophia's shape is enhanced, taking on a more finely sculpted
and integrated profile.
In designing the original Sophia, Wilson Audio determined to introduce not
merely a more accessible loudspeaker, but the best compact single cabinet loud-
speaker we could build, and the best loudspeaker in its price range, period. To
improve upon that was a daunting task. Wilson Audio's engineering team accom-
plished its goal and, with Sophia Series 2, has again raised the bar in terms of per-
formance, value, and sheer beauty.
