Hej, Säljer mina Wharfedale Elysian 1 högtalare med stativ samt subwoofern Arendal 1961S. Skicket på allt är 9/10, fungerar perfekt o utan blessyrer. Jag är första ägaren o haft de i 2+ år. Föredrar att sälja högtalare o subwoofer som ett paket. Har kvar originalförpackningarna. https://www.wharfedale.co.uk/products/elysian-1?variant=49337201459548 https://arendalsound.com/product/1961-subwoofer-1s/ Går utmärkt att provlyssna om så önskas.
Compared with the obvious alternative at this price point—buying a more mainstream new bookshelf speaker—kr22,000 lands right on the used-market median for this model, so this reads as a fair ask rather than a steal or a stretch. With recent comparable SEK listings spanning from kr5,564 to kr33,522, it sits comfortably in the normal zone for a well-kept pair.
That makes it interesting if the condition is genuinely clean, because this is one of Wharfedale’s more accomplished standmounts: big, refined presentation, strong bass weight for a bookshelf, and a smooth top end that suits long listening sessions. At this level, the main upside is getting a high-end speaker without paying new-retail pain, especially if the original packaging, grilles, and spikes are included and the cabinets/drivers are pristine.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
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.
