Wilson Alexia 2 lacking some bass

Hello everyone,

I’m reaching out for advice on fine-tuning my system, as I'm noticing a minor lack of low-end response that seems unusual given the capabilities of my speakers.

Here’s the current setup:

  • Speakers: Wilson Alexia 2, positioned on spikes per the WASP guide
  • Amplification: Nagra HD mono amps
  • Digital Source: DCS Rossini Apex with DCS Rossini Clock
  • Server: Antipodes Oladra
  • Cabling: Shunyata Omega throughout
  • Room Dimensions: Approximately 20 x 15 ft

I’m wondering if the amps may not be the ideal match or if further adjustments to the speaker placement could help resolve this. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Congrats on this excellent system!

As others mentioned, run a frequency test. These speakers should have solid bass. 

Wilson recommendation in a manual for my Sabrina is speaker to listening position should be 1.1 to 1.2 times the distance between speakers (measured between center of tweeters).  That works for me but no two rooms are alike. 
Experiment and see. Walk around the room while test tone is playing to see if you are dealing with a listening position located in a null point
