## Description

Craftsmanship, Heritage, Value, and Quality Personified: Wharfedale Denton 85th Anniversary Bookshelf Loudspeakers Play with Extraordinary Naturalism, Smoothness, Bass, and Fullness No bookshelf loudspeaker in Wharfedale's lineage claims a more vaunted slot than Denton. Originally devised 85 years ago to personify the British company's focus on value and quality, the bookshelf design went on to becoming one of the most popular speakers in audio history and ultimately spawned a series of successive models based on its engineering, appearance, and aural traits. The legendary pedigree again bursts to life with the Denton 85th Anniversary Edition, a two-way bookshelf loudspeaker featuring a 6.5-inch woven Kevlar cone bass driver and one-inch soft-dome treble. Mounted on a rigid diecast chassis, the former produces rich, crisp, extraordinarily detailed midrange responsiveness marked by grand dynamics and tautly focused lows. Trust us when we tell you that you'll feel the punch and follow the bass lines. And each speaker's woven textile tweeter includes a high-flux ferrite magnet that accounts for smooth high-frequency performance and Wharfedale's signature warmth. A cutting-edge crossover results in ultra-coherent, seamless sonics that will spoil you with involving naturalism, presence, imaging, and fullness. Denton 85th Anniversary Edition expands on the beloved original by also boasting an openness normally unassociated with speakers of this size or price. Intended to provide high-end sonics without any hassle, these bass-reflex speakers will blow you away with how big they sound and how deep their soundstages reach. And tube lovers will find plenty to rave about. Denton 85th Anniversary Edition sings when paired with valve gear. We'd also be remiss if we didn't mention how gorgeous these speakers look. There's no vinyl or corner-cutting materials in sight

Review: Classic looks with a modern sound - I recommend giving the Denton 85s a try as I have been enjoying the listening experience for the last 10 months. An excellent speaker for music more so than an audio visual applications. Placement should put the offset tweeters positioned towards the middle. Allow some distance away from the rear wall for the ports to work. Too close and bass is boomy. Mine are approximately 12 "out from the wall. The speakers have a solid build quality. The retro appearance is appealing. Modern soundstage and excellent imaging with adequate bass. Pleasant to listen to at low to moderate volume levels. They will play cleanly at loud levels. I recommend adding a subwoofer to round out the bottom end. They perform well with orchestral, jazz, acoustic and vocal stylists of all genres. Metal not so much as rapid bass pulses can tend to lag. I'm using an Arcam Sa10 amplifier, IFI Audio Zen Streamer for streaming hi res music files via Ethernet. Stream only premium quality or hi res files as the Dentons will expose flaws in digital music. I let the Dentons run at their full sonic bass range not using the subwoofer crossover. Sub is set at 44 Hz. Sub volume depends on mix needed for selection but never too high. Excellent with jazz, remastered Beatles, Jethro Tull, Rolling Stones and 70s classics.
Review: Look good, sound great - Great speakers for my medium sized room. Awesome midrange and they get plenty loud for my tastes. They also look great with or with out the speaker covers (I will say magnetic covers would have been nice at this price point, but a small complaint overall).
