Wilson Audio - The WATT/Puppy - Floorstanding Speakers (Pair)

The Wilson Audio WATT/Puppy marks the triumphant return of one of the most iconic loudspeaker designs in high-end audio. Reimagined after thirteen years and inspired by over five decades of Wilson Audio engineering, the latest WATT/Puppy honors the legacy of David Wilson while incorporating the technologies, materials, and innovations found throughout Wilson Audio's current reference loudspeaker lineup.

Originally introduced in 1986 and refined through eight generations, the WATT/Puppy became one of the most celebrated loudspeaker systems in audio history. The newest generation preserves its unmistakable appearance while benefiting from advanced proprietary cabinet materials, flagship driver technologies, premium crossover components, and sophisticated vibration control. The result is an exceptionally transparent, dynamic, and emotionally engaging loudspeaker capable of delivering true reference-level performance.

Designed and handcrafted in Provo, Utah, The WATT/Puppy combines timeless Wilson Audio craftsmanship with cutting-edge engineering to create a loudspeaker that faithfully reproduces every recording with remarkable realism, precision, and musicality.
