like a six dB per octave low pass filter. By carefully using the Controller’s Low Pass fil-
ter controls, along with the Bass Equalization and Phase controls (discussed in detail in
the Controller owner’s manual), you can successfully integrate the main loudspeakers
in your system with the Thor’s Hammer without the use of the High Pass Filter (see the
Controller owner’s manual for connection details).
Utilizing The High Pass Filter
In some rooms or with certain speakers, there are times when a high pass filter is
desirable. The Wilson Controller an optional high quality high pass filter. The High Pass
Filter control is used to filter bass from the main loudspeakers. This can be desirable in
systems where the main loudspeakers have limited bass dynamics or if the main power
amplifier is low power. Some rooms have extreme bass nonlinearities that can be better
ameliorated when the main speaker is bass-limited. (See the Controller owner’s manual
for connection details).

tem. In systems where it is desirable to use the Thor’s Hammer with both surround and
two-channel music modes, you can switch between the two modes via the Wilson Con-
troller (see Controller owner’s manual).
In home theaters, where the Thor’s Hammer is used as the Low Frequency Ef-

tural considerations. In general, the lower frequency range will be reinforced by room
boundaries and corners. Since most of the information contained in the LFE channel
is in the sub-frequency bass range, with little information in the mid and upper bass,
