Section 3.4—Resistors
Midrange and Tweeter Resistors
By removing the large aluminum back cover on the rear of the woofer
module of your Sasha DAWs, you may gain access to the resistor plate. These
resistors serve several functions.
Note: Only Wilson Audio replacement resistors should be used in your Sa-
sha DAWs. Changing the value or brand of resistor will have a deleterious
affect on the sonic performance of your loudspeakers and will void your
Wilson Audio Warranty.
The Tweeter Level, which consists of two 6.0 ohm resistors in parallel, and
Midrange Level, which consists of two 4.8 ohm resistors in parallel, resistors
provide precise level matching for the midrange and tweeter drivers corre-
spondingly. The resistors also act as ultra high quality fuses which open before a
driver can be damaged by excess power.
Additionally, these resistors can be used to tailor the output of the corre-
sponding driver to overcome tonal balance issues that result from room acoustics.
Woofer Damping Resistor
The Woofer Damping resistor affects the way the Sasha DAW’s woofers
couple to the amplifier. These resistors are pre-installed in the base of the Bass
Module and should not be changed.
