Correct phase setup of Thor’s Hammer resultsin greater frequency linearity, dynamic impact, sound-stage accuracy, and speed. (SeeController manual for details.)Successful integration with the main loudspeakers is more easily achieved whenthe Thor’s Hammer is placed between and behind the two main speakers or in the leftor right corners behind the main loudspeakers. It is possible to successfully integratethe Thor’s Hammer in other locations using the Controller’s phase control (See Controllermanual). Corner placementprovides the greatestlow frequency reinforcement(up to 6dB), but careis required in order to avoidupper bass colorationsresulting in less coherentintegration with the mainspeaker. Corner inducedupper-bass colorations canbe reduced by lowering theLow Pass Filter frequencycrossover point. FurtherFigure 4 – High Pass Filter Controls22W i l s o n A u d i o S p e c i a l t i e s

(See Controller owner’smanual for detailed information on critical setup.)The Thor’s Hammer can be used simultaneously as both the LFE channel subwooferin the surround mode and as the subwoofer to the main speakers when listening tomusic. This is achieved by switching between the “Line” and “Processor” inputs on theController. Low and High Pass filter settings are also switchable, allowing the Thor’sHammer to be optimized for both music and home theater – even within the same system.(See Controller owner’s manual for detailed information on critical setup.)Bypassing The High Pass FilterIn systems where the main speakers are full range, the Thor’s Hammer can be configuredmore successfully in most rooms without the use of the High Pass Filter. Thereis a normal bass roll-off that occurs naturally in your listening room. This effect actsFigure 5 – Weighted Filter: A vs... C weightingW i l s o n A u d i o S p e c i a l t i e s23
