The Wilson Sabrina V keeps the elegant style of the X, but brings big improvements under the skin, with trickle-down driver tech and a redesigned crossover. Sabrina V now uses Wilson’s V Material in key areas for better damping and control. Standard finishes have also been pushed up a notch — now on Sabrina, you find the same level of hand-finished detail you’d expect higher up the range.
The new Sabrina loudspeaker is a thoughtful and in-depth redesign of perhaps the most universally loved of Wilson Audio’s small, floor-standing loudspeakers during the last several decades. With a beautifully updated silhouette exuding elegance while delivering a more harmonically rich and immersive sound, Sabrina V takes everything Wilson Audio has learned from its reference-level loudspeakers and distills it into a design that is inviting and approachable.
Foundations of Excellence: Where Greatness Begins offers an inside look at the initial stages of crafting a Wilson Audio loudspeaker. The process begins with expert craftsman Quade gluing, assembling, and clamping a Sabrina V cabinet, constructed entirely from Wilson Audio’s proprietary X, V, and H-Materials—establishing the inert structural cornerstone essential to its performance.
Sabrina V pioneers a groundbreaking addition to the Wilson Audio materials library: H-Material. Developed as a high-density composite with organic and phenolic properties, this front baffle advancement sets a new benchmark in performance engineering. H-Material is similar to X-Material in inflexibility, yet slightly softer with different construction, which lends itself to be more musical in the mid-range than SabrinaX with its use of X-Material as a baffle substrate.
At the heart of the Sabrina V lies a symphony of advanced driver technologies shared with Wilson Audio’s most celebrated flagships. The Convergent Synergy Carbon (CSC) tweeter, originally developed for the Alexx V, delivers an astonishingly natural high-frequency response. This lightly coated textile dome tweeter seamlessly blends with the AlNiCo mid-range and 8-inch woofer. The CSC offers extended linearity, refined harmonic detail, and a natural sense of acoustic space.
Taking a page from the Wilson Audio Acoustic Diode design, V-Material has been nested and integrated into the bottom of the Sabrina V enclosure where the spike diode interfaces. This upgraded isolation technology (V-MCD) and enhanced vibration control provide an even quieter background, letting your favorite recordings unfold effortlessly. This is music reproduction at its finest — it feels deeper and more alive. If there are room related issues with vibration management, Sabrina V’s spike thread size enables an easy and direct upgrade path to Wilson Audio Acoustic Diodes if one wishes to further enhance the isolation in their system.

Wilson Audio has integrated its beloved 7-inch AlNiCo (Aluminum – Nickel – Cobalt) QuadraMag mid-range driver into its smallest floorstanding loudspeaker, the Sabrina V. Originally, it was developed for the Chronosonic XVX and utilized in the Alexx V, Alexia V, Sasha V, and The WATT/Puppy. The AlNiCo QuadraMag driver is renowned for its exceptional ability to settle and maintain linearity resulting in greater depth and dimensionality.
The soul of Sabrina V resides in its crossover, the critical system of components that tells each driver exactly what to play while preserving the truth of the signal. At the heart of this crossover are Wilson Audio’s uniquely wound AudioCapX-WA capacitors, produced in-house to ultra-tight tolerances. These Rel-Caps deliver exceptional low-level resolution and tonal subtleties which can be often lost in between the binding posts and the drivers with other options.
New rear-panel resistor access simplifies service and tuning— a welcome shift from the previous Sabrina bottom-mount approach. Resistors are secured with high quality tool-less thumbscrews, which makes tweeter and mid-range resistor changes swift and intuitive. This new access point on the back of the enclosure is accentuated with a beautifully machined aluminum frame with the Sabrina V logo.

The same 8” woofer used in the Sasha V and The WATT/Puppy anchors the low frequencies and foundation of the Sabrina V system. This driver is specifically chosen for its agility and authority resulting in bass that is articulate, textured, and intimately tied to the rhythm of the music.
