    Wharfedale Super 3 Tweeter Resoration

    Hi guys, I'm a happy W70B owner who's put a fair bit of love into these speakers. One of the super 3's has always distorted a bit, but recently it's gotten too bad to bear. I've always assumed it was a little blown from before I got them, but I don't abuse the speakers and it's continued to get...

    Help identifying Wharfedale mystery drivers

    Hi Everyone, My dad got his old Wharfedale drivers down from the loft and kindly gave them to me for my flat, unfortunately I can't identify them past the fact that they're Warfedales and were made in 1979.. The Boxes are long gone too, but apparently they didn't come with them originally and...

    Wharfedale W60 red dot

    Hi, and thanks in advance for any input. I have had a pair of two-way Wharfedale W60s for a few months and assumed the tiny, faded, almost invisible red dot on the left terminal (a small, nonstandard banana plug) indicated positive. But from looking at photos of what must be later models with...

    Wharfedale Super Linton / W30D Purple Tweeter Repairable?

    I was listening to them with a Marantz 2220 when 1 of the Tweeters just stopped working. No pop buzz hum or anything they just stopped. The Cap & Resistor tested ok out of circuit but I don't get resistance across the terminals unless I set the MM to 2000MegaOhms so I am fearing the worst. There...

    Refurbishing Wharfedale W60D Mark IIs

    Just picked up a pair off of craigslist. First pic shows the "before/after" of hitting them with restorafinish. One on left shows the wood after cleaning and right after applying restorafinish with 0000 steel wool. Went with their mahogany tint as I like a reddish tone even though these are...

    Wharfedale Speakers - Best model for the money?

    Hi, Building out a new budget system. Figuring out which entry TT to buy but have roughly settled on a U-Turn with a Grado Black. Knowing this, I was wondering if someone could shed some light if its worth the extra $150 to go for the Wharfedale Anniversary Bookshelf vs. the Wharfedale Diamond...

    Wharfedale W90s - How I Replaced My L-Pads

    Good Day AKers, I have a very early pair of Wharfedale W90s from 1962. These have all AlNiCo drivers and dual ports. They also have 53 year old electronics! The W90s (and other "W" series Wharfedales) have attenuation dials on the rear of the speakers. In most cases (but I don't believe in...

    Wharfedale W70 (and similar) Experience

    Hi guys, I've been running Wharfedale W70's since mid February and it's been quite the journey. It was a pretty radical shift looking back on it from my upgraded Klipsch Tangent 200's using powerful horn presence to the lush, accurate W70. There was certainly a bit of a learning curve in...

    Sand-filled Baffle Epiphany!

    Finally got my hands on some elusive Wharfedale SFB/3's - one of the first commercially available "open baffle" type speaker designs from the golden age of audio. Big thanks to Tcomisky, who made the trip to West Virginia to pick these monsters up. AK is such an incredible place where we...

    Wharfedale W90 - Radio People - Complete picture Set

    Finally getting around to opening up my W90s. These are 1965 (atleast all the drives are marked as such). This pair seems to be unique in that there are 3 controls and the mid array has a baffle to further separate from the tweeters. I believe these to be alnico mids and Super 3 Ceramic...
