The design objective for the Sophia was at once simple and challenging: to build a single cabinet, floor-standing loudspeaker that could provide a significant measure of the musical enjoyment found in Wilson Audio's multi-cabinet speakers; the WATT / Puppy system 7, the MAXX Series 2, and the Alexandria X-2.

The result was a loudspeaker both visually and sonically beguiling. Sophia is a full-range, thee-way system using specially chosen drivers and Wilson Audio's patented Group Delay technology to achieve a new standard in top-to-bottom coherence and transparency. Every element is properly aligned in the time domain and seamlessly joined in its harmonic structure.
