Applications

One of Wilson Audio’s most important criteria in speaker development is that a

speaker meets the accuracy and dynamic demands of studio monitoring, analytical hard-

ware and software evaluation, and, of course, critical music and theater soundtrack listen-

ing. The WATCH Center Series 3 has been designed to deliver all of the speed, dynamics,

and musical accuracy to satisfy even the most demanding music lovers.

The WATCH Center has been engineered to take full advantage of today’s multi-chan-

nel surround formats, including the latest AC-3 (Dolby Digital) and DTS (Digital Theater

Systems) formats.

It will provide years of satisfaction whether listening to two-channel audio, multi-

channel audio, or to the latest movie sound track.

Section 1.2—WATCH Package

WATCH Center Series 3

Specifically designed to excel at cen-

ter channel functions, WATCH Center is

extremely dynamic with high sensitivity

and robust power handling. Unlike most

center channels, it provides listeners not

only with optimal on-axis response, but

also smooth, linear, off-axis performance.

This is, in part, a result of Wilson PDC

(Propagation Delay Correction) technol-

ogy first developed for the WAMM

®

and

X-1 Grand SLAMM

®

systems and later ap-

plied to the rest of the Wilson Line. PDC

allows for optimal tuning of a loudspeaker for various listening distances and heights and

gives listeners much greater control over their sound.

The WATCH Center Series 3 was designed from the ground up as a center channel.

It is not merely a standard speaker that was tipped onto its side. The Center channel was

voiced and optimized to truly represent dialogue for movies as well as music and vocals

when used in a multi-channel audio setup.

Of course, the WATCH Center Series 3 lives up to Wilson’s high standards of cutting

edge design, superior build quality, and stunning sonic performance. The WATCH Center

is available with a matching stand.

WATCH Dog Passive Subwoofer

The WATCH Dog passive subwoofer

is the culmination of over thirty years of

experience at Wilson Audio in building

high output, ultra-low distortion woofer

and subwoofer products. It was designed

to further extend and enhance the bot-

tom octave performance of music and the-

ater systems without compromising speed,

tonal accuracy, or phase coherency. The

WATCH Dog will seamlessly and coherent-

ly integrate with any loudspeaker, whether

you are augmenting a two-channel system or using the Dog as the LFE channel in a sur-

round system.
