The inspiration for Sabrina arose from two distinct and seemingly disparate sources: the original WATT/Puppy, and the Alexandria XLF. The WATT/Puppy was the result of Dave Wilson’s belief that a well-designed compact loudspeaker could outperform many of the much larger state-of-the-art systems of its day. Sabrina is nearly the same size as its 1980s progenitor. The XLF, on the other hand, represents the current pinnacle of Wilson’s three decades-long quest to bridge the gulf between live, unamplified music and its reproduction. The XLF platform offers the world’s most precise time-alignment capability, custom-designed drivers, and cabinet modules constructed from Wilson’s proprietary materials, reducing cabinet resonance and coloration to inaudible levels. The objective for Sabrina was to take the wealth of knowledge and experience contained in the XLF and distill it down to its essence. To create a loudspeaker that, like the first WATT/Puppy, could stand alongside much larger systems, and, like its flagship sibling, offer the kind of dynamic contrast and harmonic expression that is the defining character of Wilson Audio loudspeakers. Sabrina’s cabinet is hand-assembled, glued with proprietary adhesives, hand-sanded, gel coated, painted with 4 layers of automotive grade paint, inspected, then polished and buffed to the same exacting standard as every other Wilson loudspeaker, We conducted extensive laser-vibrometry measurements to develop the internal bracing scheme, and Wilson’s proprietary X material was chosen for the front baffle and bottom, ensuring a cabinet design with minimal coloration and resonance-induced distortion
