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.
