Wilson Audio Autobiography Loudspeaker
Autobiography is not merely a loudspeaker, it is the handcrafted story of Wilson Audio sculpted over half a century. Decades of experimentation, discovery, and devotion shaped every surface and every element. This creation is not written in ink, but in materials, engineering, and the desire to connect deeper with our music. Each detail whispers that the hands of those who pursued something better were here.

THE FLAGSHIP
An autobiography is a personal chronicle. It is a record of lived experience shaped by time, intention, discovery, exploration, and refinement. It is a memoir- not simply of events, but of evolution. In that spirit, the Wilson Audio Autobiography stands as a sculpted narrative of the company’s history, pursuit of musical truth, and dedication to the refinement in craftsmanship. Not just a personal chronicle, but a personnel chronicle.
Features
Time Alignment
Both the upper and lower PentaMag midrange modules are independently adjustable via the module alignment sled system. Each alignment indicator, all of the sled gears, and reference alignment scales are calibrated and easy to read by simply adjusting the rotating cam grip. The MTM crescent frame is similarly equipped. This innovative alignment hardware enables time domain precision that exceeds both the WAMM Master Chronosonic and the Chronosonic XVX.
Port Design
New port hardware enables rapid configuration changes and room integration without tools. Adjustments can be made to the port cover and port ring by pressing the two quick release buttons, simplifying setup without sacrificing effectiveness. The cross load flow porting system has been refined to allow controlled adjustment of low frequency interaction with the listening space.
Transducers – Crafted Anew
At the core of Autobiography lies a completely new driver complement. This is a five-way loudspeaker configured in an M(MTM)M array, with every transducer making its first appearance in this system. Each driver was conceived specifically for Autobiography, not developed as an isolated component, but as part of a unified acoustic architecture.
