Hydrology Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Great speakers. Award winning. But organise a listening session to see/hear what you think! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears (to me atleast) that Wharfedale have had a major resurgence with a number of quality speaker options now on the market. If there is a resurgence what has been the main reason for it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a resurgence what has been the main reason for it? From what I have heard, it seems Wharfedale have been more open more recently to comments/suggestions from their global distributor network than they have before. And without picking on other brands, it seems when one rises, others falter. Quad and Mission (from the same staple - IAG) dont seem to be as innovative as their sibling is currently. Certainly I think the Mission of old (such as your E-Series) were far more innovative than recent efforts.

I only compared them with the Klipsch rp6000f while I was there. I much preferred the Wharfedale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think is because of the amp they use to drive it is Arcam amp only 65w per channel and Arcam with cd player. I think i didn't hear the full potential of the speaker yet.

Midget Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 The floor at Apollo is hollow as well so I Always found it impossible to truely evaluate speakers there. I brought my own amp for testing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
