H Wharfedale για να γιορτασει την 80η επαιτιο της, ξεσκονιζει ενα θρυλο της δεκαετιας του 60-70, παταει επανω στο επιτυχημενο ονομα και φτιαχνει ενα πανεμορφο μονιτορ ηχειο που θα βγει στην αγορα το Μαιο σε τιμη κατω απο 500 λιρες Αγγλιας οπως ισχυριζονται οι ανθρωποι της εταιριας. Το ηχειο παρουσιαστηκε στην φετινη εκθεση του Bristol, παρτε ενα ματι.
Wharfedale – founded in 1932 by Gilbert Briggs – is celebrating its 80th anniversary with the launch of a new version of its original Denton standmount speaker. Although the new model has the traditional looks of the original, with a mahogany wood veneer finish to the chipboard cabinet and a Tungsten cloth grille, Wharfedale says it's very different under the skin. The bass unit features a woven Kevlar cone mounted on a rigid die-cast chassis, while the high frequencies are handled by a woven textile soft-dome tweeter with high flux ferrite magnet (rather than Neodymium). Peter Comeau, head of acoustics at Wharfedale's parent company IAG, says: "In voicing them, I had in mind the original Dentons, which sounded musical but with a touch of warmth. The ferrite magnet tweeter gives a cleaner, softer, smoother treble than Neodymium designs.". The 80th Anniversary Wharfedale Denton will be available in May for "less than £500".
