It achieved this effect through radical EQ and weird psychoacoustic processing using delays and phase.
It worked, but it was weird and quirky.

The WOW Thing has become the secret sauce of many a cult album.An industry secret, now a plug-in Dan Korneff managed to buy a WOW Thing fifteen years ago, and it has become a staple of his guitar processing.
But he wanted to use it for background vocals and reverb, and the original boxes are hard to come by – so he recreated them and they’re now available as a plugin.
Think of the WOW Thing as an acoustic hug: when you want a sound to extend beyond the usual stereo field, the WOW Thing is the one to get.
If you’re looking for quirky lo-fi mystery, the WOW Thing is your cheap plastic friend, now in a handy plugin.
