Loudspeakers > Wharfedale Loudspeakers

The Wharfedale is crowned new king of the budget market

Advantages: Impressive bass extension, depth and spaciousness
Disadvantages: Perhaps it is not as lively as some speakers

...point in the arsenal of Wharfedale speakers but it's notable just how clear the notes are and thus just what a difference it makes to the overall listening experience. The icing on the cake is the treble which despite the volume, remains neutral and thus integrated to the rest of the sound. So if you are a fan of slow music or classical, you are bound to revel in this and for those who like their music, faster and harder, the bass extension and detail ...
...market remains fiercely competitive and Wharfedale have really been forced to up the ante in terms of sound quality to compete with Monitor Audio, but it's clear that they have now set the standard for others to follow. I would highly recommend these speakers and honestly see little to fault them on. If we are comparing like for like, then perhaps the BR2's retain a certain more excitement to the music which might be welcomed in some genres. However ...

Review of Wharfedale Diamond 10.1

Wharfedale Diamond 9.1, excellent value for money

Advantages: Deep bass for a small speaker, nice look, UK made speaker
Disadvantages: A litte bit on the bright side, will need support from a subwoofer

When I first saw this speaker in the showroom, I was not quite tempted that it would be the one I have been looking for. Short on budget, since I had to build a system from nothing, having been able to sell my Home Theater in a Box for 70% of its original price and with some extra from my saving, I planned to look for a speaker system which can start up a decent stereo system which can be developed into a full home theater system once I will be able ...
...luckily I was attracted by its somewhat bright but calm color cabinet, then therefore I requested an audition. Combined with a good DVD player and an AV Receiver in which I planned also to acquire, I tested the speaker without a Subwoofer. And the result was stunning. The bass is deep and round, although it will not shatter your glass windows, it is enough to inject tremble on your listening nerves. The mid and high tones are warm, and with a little ...

Arcus TC-60 Detailed and natural mid, crystal clear treble

Advantages: Powerfull bass without annoying "boom noise". Detailed and natural mid & crystal clear high
Disadvantages: None.

Arcus TC-60 is a 3 way 3 drivers, bi-wirable speaker with gold plated sturdy binding posts. Like all German made products, I find it a seriously product when I first saw it. It delivers a superb clarity of sound in all frequencies, with very high transparencies in mid range. The bass driver can produce a powerful low bass but not excessive. The quality of female singers voice is extremely amazing, I almost believed Norah Jones was actually performing ...

Review of Bose® SoundDock® Original

Small Speakers, Small Sound

Advantages: Small, lightweight, can be used with any mp3 player
Disadvantages: Sound quality isn't great - speakers not very powerful

...Morrisons. They were selling these JVC SP-A220 speaker sets for £9.99. My daughter was with me and liked the fact you could indulge in a little colour change with the sets, so I duly bought her one. The Speakers The speakers are not for those who want high quality sound - I have to state that from the off. They are, however, good for children or if you want to listen to music on the go as they are fully battery powered, taking 2 AAA batteries. ...
...the player to the speaker via the headphone jack, making them pretty universal. The mp3 player does not, however have a place to sit flush on the speakers. They are small and lightweight - measuring just over 6 inches in length. The speakers are made from silver coloured plastic, and you can change the colour tab in the middle using one of several they provide, including black, orange and red. As my daughter's mp3 player is red, that is unsurprisingly ...
