History in The Making

Gilbert Briggs, who founded Wharfedale in 1932, turned the company into one of the most famous loudspeaker manufacturers in the world by concentrating on quality and value for money. The Wharfedale Denton exemplified these two edicts. Balancing fine craftsmanship, natural sound quality and affordability inside a compact loudspeaker that was bought in its millions right across the globe.

The original Denton went on to father other models based on its highly popular formula, the Denton 3 being the last of the line… …until now!

Like classic rock, vinyl records and valve amplification, sometimes you get it right the first time ‘round. And so Wharfedale proudly introduce the Denton 85th Anniversary Edition two-way bookshelf loudspeaker, a re-imagining of one of our most famous and popular loudspeakers to date. A mixture of traditional and advanced technologies offer warm, rich and natural characteristics while delivering further detail and dynamics. And the sound? Well, it’s the way it was then combined with what you like now. This is a veritable modern classic.

Wharfedale Denton 85

The Wharfedale Denton 85th Anniversary is a two-way speaker in the classic bookshelf tradition. Beautifully hand veneered in Mahogany by Wharfedale cabinet makers with an inset front baffle and traditional Tungsten cloth grille.

Underneath the traditional exterior, however, the Denton 85th Anniversary is bang up to date and utilises a mixture of traditional and advanced technology. The bass unit features Wharfedale’s innovative woven Kevlar cone mounted on a rigid die-cast chassis. This combination delivering a rich, detailed bass and midrange output with superb dynamic performance. High frequencies are handled by a woven textile soft dome treble unit with high flux ferrite magnet, engineered for smooth detailed HF extension.

These drive units are combined by a highly researched crossover that is near inaudible to the listener, resulting in a coherent and seamless musical output that is both thrilling and natural in its rendition of any source material.
