and, in many instances, the Alexandria X-2. To accomplish this task, David Wilson and
his engineering department used a state of the art subwoofer driver, sophisticated
electronic crossovers, adjustable phase control, equalization controls, and amplifier
section, as well as sophisticated enclosure materials.
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
hardware and software evaluation, and of course, critical music and theater sound-
track listening. The WATCH Dog has been designed to deliver all of the speed, dynam-
ics, and musical accuracy to satisfy even the most demanding music lovers.
The ultra long-throw, twelve inch driver is powered by a high current amplifier
designed specifically for the WATCH Dog by Richard Marsh. A unique control center
adds the flexibility and tune-ability that truly redefines powered subwoofer perform-
ance.
The WATCH Dog has been engineered to take full advantage of today’s multi-
channel 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.
Enclosure Materials
Only the very best in materials are used in the WATCH Dog enclosure. The
enclosure of the WATCH Dog uses the same proprietary techniques that have been
very successfully utilized in the Alexandria X-2, MAXX, Sophia, and the WATT/PUPPY
systems. The enclosure is made from a non-resonant composite material which is
then highly cross-braced to further reduce cabinet resonance. In the most critical
areas, the WATCH Dog uses our proprietary “X” material, a very dense, strong com-
posite originally developed for the X-1 Grand SLAMM®.
