Wilson Audio The Watt Puppy

Introducing a remastering to one of, if not the most, iconic loudspeaker designs:

Wilson Audio The Watt Puppy

The WATT/Puppy.

Inspired by the original WATT/Puppy’s legacy, the development of this instantly recognisable design began with a hopeful vision.

To create a WATT/Puppy that would honour the original designer by utilising current technologies and innovations refined for more than 50 years.

Simply put, to build a WATT/Puppy that Dave Wilson would have built if he had the resources then that Wilson Audio now possesses.

The sum of its parts

The Sum of its parts

CSC Tweeter

The Tweeter

When Wilson Audio introduced its cutting-edge and complex carbon fibre rear-wave chamber technology in the Convergent Synergy Carbon (CSC) tweeter it allowed for smooth and linear high-frequency extension.

Superior harmonic detail emerged from the soundstage and the overall result is a significant improvement in sound quality and ease of listening.

Originally developed for the Alexx V, the CSC tweeter is also integrated into the Alexia V and Sasha V systems.

This delightful coated textile dome tweeter naturally and seamlessly blends with the AlNiCo midrange and dual woofers it is paired with.

AlNiCo QuadraMag

Dark Hardware

Wilson Audio has integrated its beloved 7-inch AlNiCo (Aluminium – Nickel – Cobalt) QuadraMag midrange driver developed and used in the Chronosonic XVX, Alexx V, Alexia V, and the Sasha V.

This refined technology produces a tonally rich and exquisite sound in the audio band that the human ear is most sensitive to, resulting in a truly engaging listening experience.

The AlNiCo QuadraMag driver is renowned for its exceptional ability to settle and maintain linearity resulting in greater depth and dimensionality.

The WATT baffle is composed of a unique blend of materials that create a highly stable and low-resonance coupling surface for the midrange driver; the effect enhances the sonic beauty and bloom of the QuadraMag.

Twin 8″ Woofers

Twin 8" Woofers

When asked what drivers are included in The WATT/Puppy, the simple answer is, “The same drivers found in the Sasha V.”

This includes the same nimble and articulate 8” formed homogenous cellulose composite woofers.

These woofers have been designed to deliver an agile low-frequency response, ensuring an audio experience that is both impactful and precise.

Adjustable Rear Spike & Bubble Level

Bubble

Found on the rear of the WATT is an adjustable spike which allows for the most precise alignment in the time domain found in any version of the WATT/Puppy platform.

Additionally, the WATT module rests on proud sitting spike track hardware, directly installed into the V-Material top plate, greatly reducing vibrations from the woofer cabinet to the WATT enclosure.

An integrated bubble level on the top of the Puppy ensures effortless leveling during the installation process.

Capacitors

Capacitors

Five decades ago it was common for loudspeaker designers to use capacitors with simple, single-wound construction.

To be fair, options at the time were limited.

While some loudspeakers available in the market now are still currently using these elementary versions as their capacitor of choice, Wilson Audio continues to redefine what is possible.

The multi-section RelCaps found in all Wilson Audio loudspeakers are crafted at Wilson Audio using custom state-of-the-art machines and hand-finished.

This proprietary process produces some of the most accurate, complex, consistent, and sonically superior capacitors available.

Golden Anniversary

Golden anniversary

Wilson Audio’s 50th Anniversary medallion was created to commemorate five decades of Authentic Excellence in sound reproduction and craftsmanship.

Available exclusively throughout 2024 on The WATT/Puppy during Wilson Audio’s historic 50th celebration, this limited-edition medallion is a badge of honour for this remastered iconic design.

The colour of the medallion corresponds to the colour hardware chosen for The WATT/Puppy.

Whether Clear or Black hardware is selected, the medallion will mirror that finish.

Additionally, a unique Red medallion will exclusively accompany red paint variations chosen for The WATT/Puppy, making this version the rarest of them all.
