We recommend a nonabrasive carnauba-based wax and a soft cloth.
Care of the Grilles
Periodically, you will want to clean the Alexia’s grilles. This is best done by using
the round brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner hose. Gently vacuum the front sur-
face of the grille. Be careful not to apply too much pressure. Do not use a hard plastic
attachment against the grille. The grille cloth is stretched tightly over the grille frame.
Too much pressure or use of a hard plastic attachment could cause the grille material
to tear, especially in the corners.
Often Wilson speaker owners desire to change the look of their listening room by
changing the color of their speaker grilles. In addition to basic black, Wilson Audio
offers a variety of grille colors to match most WilsonGloss finishes. Contact your local
dealer for grille cloth samples or to order replacement grilles for Alexia.
Break-in Period
All audio equipment will sound best after its components have been broken in for
some period of use. Wilson Audio breaks in all drivers for approximately 12 hours. All
drivers are then tested, calibrated, and matched for their acoustical properties. In your
listening room, expect 25 to 50 percent of break-in to be complete after two hours of
playing music at normal listening levels. Ninety percent of break-in is complete after
24 hours of playing. Playing a CD on repeat overnight can accomplish this task quickly.
Wilson Audio recommends chamber music for this task.
