Our Thoughts RADAR AI

A classic budget floorstander, and €70 looks like a strong buy rather than a stretch. Recent used listings sit around €70, with other asking prices notably higher, so this lands at the low end of the market and comfortably below fair mid-pack money.

These are well-liked for easygoing, balanced sound, respectable bass reach for the size, and generally good value when the pair is complete and working properly. At this price, a clean set is the real appeal: verify both drivers play cleanly, the cabinets are not swollen or badly re-veneered, and that you’re getting the full pair with grills and decent terminals.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About Wharfedale

Wharfedale traces its roots to 1932, when Gilbert Briggs, a music enthusiast and audio pioneer, crafted his first loudspeaker in the cellar of his home in Ilkley, Yorkshire, England. Named after the scenic Wharfedale valley along the River Wharfe, the company quickly gained traction among radio enthusiasts, winning early competitions and expanding to a factory near Bradford by 1933. Sold to the Rank Organisation in 1958, with Briggs managing until 1965, Wharfedale evolved from wartime subcontracting to postwar dominance in high-fidelity audio, blending British engineering heritage with relentless innovation.

The brand remains synonymous with loudspeakers, pioneering designs like the roll surround cone in the late 1950s, ceramic magnets in 1962, and the acoustic suspension system in the 1960s for deeper bass in compact cabinets. Iconic models such as the Linton, Denton, and enduring Diamond series—launched in 1981—define its core. While it briefly ventured into amplifiers, receivers, turntables, tuners, and even televisions or DVD players until 2008, Wharfedale now focuses exclusively on audio equipment under the International Audio Group.

Wharfedale occupies a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, celebrated for delivering exceptional value, musicality, and build quality that punches above its price point. Far from high-end esoterica or vintage collector bait, it appeals to discerning buyers seeking reliable, globally recognized performance without boutique premiums, its classics like the Diamonds remaining staples for generations of audiophiles.
