About the WATT/Puppy 3
The Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 3 is a renowned high-fidelity loudspeaker system originally released in 1991 and retired by 1995. It consists of two components: the WATT Series 3, a two-way stand-mounted speaker with a 1-inch inverted-dome tweeter and a 6.5-inch doped-pulp cone midrange/woofer, and the Puppy subwoofer, which features two 7.5-inch plastic-cone woofers with reflex bass loading. The system is designed to provide a frequency response from 58 Hz to 18 kHz for the WATT and 30 Hz to 130 Hz for the Puppy subwoofer, delivering a coherent and extended bass response. The WATT enclosure is made from mineral-filled acrylic-based material, while the Puppy uses laminated HDF with an X-Material bottom for enhanced rigidity. Sensitivity is rated at 91 dB with a nominal impedance of 4 ohms, requiring a minimum amplifier power of 30 watts. The system was highly regarded for its clarity, transparency, and dynamic capabilities, with a crossover frequency around 3.7 kHz and a low-frequency crossover at 230 Hz between the WATT and Puppy units. The speakers were available in various finishes including laminated, automotive gloss paint, and wood veneers. The original price was approximately per pair for the laminated finish. The Watt Puppy 3 is considered a classic and influential design in the audiophile community, noted for its musicality and engineering excellence.
