Set 2 wharfedale valdus 400 150 watt speakers, haast ongebruikt zonder gebruikerssporen 75 euro.
This is a buyer’s market for this category right now: at €75, this sits well below the €100 25th percentile and miles under the €369 median, so it reads as a strong bargain rather than a merely fair ask. For a pair of floorstanders, that’s the kind of price that leaves room for pickup, stands, or a bit of restoration and still stays sensible.
Valdus speakers are generally liked for easygoing, room-filling sound with a lively, listenable character and decent bass weight for the money. If the drivers are intact, surrounds are healthy, and both cabinets are structurally sound, this is an easy “worth a look” buy for someone wanting a fun second system or a budget vintage setup. At this price, the main thing to check is basic working order rather than hunting for perfection.

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.
