Polaris
Polaris—the North Star—anchors the rotating night sky as the immovable center above the north pole. The task of a center channel loudspeaker is to provide the still point around which swirl the action, music, and emotion of the home theater experience.
Polaris—the star—is in reality a triple star system. Similarly, Polaris™—the loudspeaker—was conceived to serve more than a single function. Polaris is a low-profile flagship speaker designed to solve architectural challenges such as where a tall loudspeaker would obstruct a window view or intersect a wall-to-wall theater screen. Whether it is employed as a reference quality center channel, or as a low-profile music system, Polaris is engineered to achieve the same levels of performance as Wilson Audio’s flagship loudspeakers, Alexandria® Series 2 and MAXX® Series 3.

For the past 23 years, no product represented the soul and history of Wilson Audio more than the WATT/Puppy.

MaxX Series 3
Since its introduction in 1998, the MAXX has proved a clear success by every measure--in units sold, in glowing reviews, and in the degree to which it has become the reference for many of those leading reviewers. (One writer said the MAXX Series 2 was "the most significant product I've written about in my eight years as an audio reviewer.") Perhaps MAXX's greatest measure of success is its use by top-tier electronics and cable manufacturers in their reference systems.
We realized that, as good as the Series 2 was, the existing platform stood in the way of further improvement. So we conceived an all-new design.
The primary objective was to further improve MAXX's time-domain performance. The Wilson design team split the single upper module into two discreet units and incorporated Aspherical Propagation Delay.
They added a slightly simplified version of the astonishing new midrange driver developed for Alexandria Series 2. Then, all-

Watch-Dog Subwoofer
"...if you've bought into the Duette, you've bought into the Wilson way. The WATCH Dog offers a fantastic upgrade for that speaker, delivering increased bandwidth, transparency, texture, tonal colour and scale to what is already a wonderfully musical speaker. But the real gain is best expressed in musical rather than hi-fi terms."
