Choice between Wilson Audio Alexx or the Alexia V


Looking to possibly upgrade my speakers once again and I have a choice between an older Wilson Audio Alexx speaker (approximately 3 years old) in fantastic shape or the new Alexia V model. Both would be priced about the same. I am interested in receiving feedback from anyone who has had the listening experience comparing both speakers. My listening room can fit either speaker.

I would certainly appreciate a better understanding of the sound signatures between these two models.

Thank you

I currently own the Alexia 1 and have new Alexx V's arriving in a week or so.  I'm also very curious about the SQ delta. I love the Alexia which I have paired with two Perlisten D-212 subs.  Both of these speakers require similar amp current as they both drop to around 2 ohms.  I'll have lots to say once the new speakers arrive.  My guess is the Alexx 1 will have better scale and bass. The big difference will be the Alexia V's Alnico QuadraMag which is supposed to be the trump card. Its also used in the Alexx V.  I auditioned the Alexx V at a dealer. What I noticed the most was better low end and the mids were better but it was not my listening room and electronics. Remember the Alexx model has 2 mid range drivers.
