Advantages: Impressive bass extension, depth and spaciousness Disadvantages: Perhaps it is not as lively as some speakers
The Wharfedale's have consistently made good speakers but for a while now in my eyes, it has failed to make outstanding speakers. Well of that changes with it's latest incarnation the 10.1's which have only landed in the shops in the last couple of weeks. The range attempts to build upon the qualities which made the 9.1's a very attractive speaker but improve upon the areas of sound quality which were ultimately bettered by the Monitor Audio BR2's. Fresh out of the box and onto the speaker stands, in looks alone these speakers look a snip at the price with a very eye catching design which is sure to win the approval of many current fans of hi fi and potential fans alike.
In addition to this despite being rear ported, this poses no problems when positioning them near walls. Therefore takes away some of the notable problems of boom which ...
Advantages: Open expansive sound, tight and punchy, can site close to walls Disadvantages: Lacks the power of some speakers but given the price this isn't an issue
The Wharfedale 9.1 has now been eclipsed by the new series 10.1. However this is by no means a reason to overlook this speaker and instead it offers the potential of picking this up at a bargain price. This is indeed what dealers are now looking to do in their bid to offload the speaker.
The speakers while certainly not unattractive, are not the most stylish however this is only an observation and not a fundamental issue as far as I am concerned. When listening to these speakers, it apparent that you will definitely need to site them on speaker stands to ensure that the bass is tight and punchy.
Thankfully if space is limited and despite the fact that these are rear ported, these can be situated near a back wall while avoiding the kind of boom which can go hand in hand with such positioning. This is going to be particularly useful in ...
Advantages: it WOULD have been that I could have matching handsets throughout Disadvantages: one cannot purchase the additional handsets which the leaflet states can be added to the system.
I bought the Wharfedaletriple telepnone which is a base unit with an answering machine plus two additional handsets and which advises that a further 2 handsets can be added to the system (this was my reason for purchasing this product) HOWEVER one cannot buy the additional handsets unless one buys a twin which includes yet another answer machine this begs the question "why would one need a second answering machine on one system?" and of course the cost escalates when an answering machine is included so I am very disappointed as it was my plan to add the additional handsets at my convenience but having visited Argos Stores (and it is my belief that this product is an own label of Argos) I left very disappointed having been courteously attended to but quite categorically told that it was not possible to buy the additional handsets. ...
