wharfdale

not finding much online in the way of people’s reviews of Wharfedale astons, just a couple YouTube videos for the most part. this is most likely because they’re a limited release. Just curious if anyone has any experience with them, especially in comparison to Wharfedale’s other anniversary lines

Hello all, I have recently had the fortune of inheriting a pair of Wharfedale Denton 1s from my dad. They are beautiful, albeit slightly neglected, speakers but sound pretty terrible, so I was hoping to replace the internals to make them usable. I am struggling at the first hurdle of opening...

Hello Friends, my son just picked up a pair of old Wharfdales. The tag on the back says, “Hong Kong” and the speaker connector looks like a jack plug. I’ll try to post a picture but I’ve never been successful getting one to stick… I know at least a few of you will know what the heck this is and...

Good morning to all my wonderful ‘Hi-Fi Heads! Please Pardon my post if this isn’t the correct place to ask this.. But, last year I purchased a pair of Wharfedale W70c’s & am just now getting around to opening them up for the first time to see what kind of condition everything is in. (I know...

I am restoring a set of Wharfedale W70D Hong Kongs and was wondering if anyone could tell me if this is the original crossover or if it has been replaced. The original owner took out the 8 inch low mid and covered it in plywood. I have a Wharfedale replacement driver to install as well as stolen...

There he is, the humble and about as old as me, Rotel RA-970BX driving 2 pairs of speakers. I haven't put much thought if any at all in what my setup does and or how/balanced things are, and i know there are some much more knowledgeable people around here so i'm wondering if yous could tell me...

Hey all - question for a friend here. What would everyone recommend in terms of a smallish speaker for ceiling mounting in a gallery space? It has to be something available new, not vintage or second hand. Something relatively full sounding for a decent sized space (we're not expecting...

My latest acquisition - a pair of Wharfedale E50 speakers. Very dirty, but salvageable condition. I got them on the last day of the estate sale for 75% off the original price. I auditioned them last night after carrying the beasts downstairs. Everything sounded fine, but upon further...

I’ve recently acquired a pair of wharfdale dovedale w2 speakers.1 works perfectly but the other ones built in tone control seems to have a loose, temperamental connection. Where would I find a replacement control or is it possible to bypass it? Many thanks.

Hey everybody, St. Louis Craigslist has turned into an audiophile treasure trove lately, I just picked up a near mint set of 1st gen Wharfedale w90s yesterday with the super 3s and ceramic woofs. Between these and my Altec 14s I can close my speaker search for a while. I have a Scott 299d which...

Blame Mr. Biggles. All I needed were a pair of 8" drivers for my Wharfdale W70's, and maybe while I'm talking to a guy who knows I can get some advice on replacing the one measly 4mfd that filters output to the tweeter. That's ALL I NEEDED. But no, he goes over and above - gives me some NOS PIO...

Picked up the following items recently.. Pilotone AA-903 mono tube amp Altec 824a Iconic Speaker (single) University High Compliance speaker (single) Electro Voice The Princess Bookshelf speakers (pair) Wharfedale w30d Bookshelf speakers (pair)

I have a problem with one tweeter which cuts out with higher volume but if I turn the loudness button off and back on it returns but not for long , anyone got any ideas? 1971 nos Wharfedales unit 5 kit Cheers

This may be a weird question, but my wife and I are thinking of replacing the floors in our home. We are considering using tile, but I am worried that having my speakers in a room w all tile will make them boomy, bright, and fatiguing due to the reflective nature of the tiles. My speakers are...

Hi guys! I've enjoyed my audio journey thus far, but am certainly in need of a change of speakers. When me and a good friend started the journey, our first real speakers were a set of Klipsch Tangent T200's for myself (I heavily improved the cabs, dampened the horn and upgraded the crossovers)...

Hi my name is Jay, I have been reading AK for years now looking for opinions and reviews on the many a/v components and speakers I find and by on CL. I just broke up my home theater set and am in the market for new speakers. I have read enough forums, magazines, and cnet reviews to spout all...

Any thoughts on this entry level amp? I currently use the Pioneer A-20. I have seen reviews of the Onkyo as being voiced as a "warm" British throwback. This sounds intriguing to me and might be a nice pairing with my Wharfedale Denton 80th speakers. Any thoughts welcome.

Does anyone remember these wonderful events put on by the manufactures of audio equipment? I remember the wonderful set-ups they had! They used hotel rooms that they would demonstrate their top shelf equipment, speakers, turntables, receivers, amplifiers, tuners and accessories! I remember...
