Product Gallery
Product Overview
The SabrinaX is Wilson Audio's smallest floorstanding loudspeaker that inherits many technologies developed for the flagship Chronosonic XVX. Notably, the SabrinaX is enclosed in an X-Material cabinet and features a low-turbulence vent for the midrange.
The X in SabrinaX stands for Wilson's proprietary X-Material composite enclosure, which offers excellent sonic characteristics. The SabrinaX is constructed entirely from X-Material.
Wilson Audio SabrinaX features the Convergent Synergy MK5 tweeters initially developed for the WAMM Master Chronosonic. Its 5.75-inch midrange driver is remarkably neutral, while the new 8-inch woofer originally designed for Sasha DAW develops a rich yet fast mid-bass.
Naturally, Wilson Audio employs only the finiest materials for its loudspeakers, and the SabrinaX is no exception.

Reviewer score 95%Daryl Wilson's SabrinaX delivers a sonic sensation I can only describe as'majestic' You can tweak it further by playing with the height of the spikes, tuning the slope relative to your hot seat. The Sabrina defied belief with a soundscape that belied its dimensions. It sounds as 'big' as a speaker double its height.
