## Description

Product Description Denton 85th Anniversary is a two-way speaker in the classic bookshelf tradition, beautifully hand veneered in Mahogany by Wharfedale cabinet makers with an inset front baffle and traditional Tungsten cloth grille. Underneath the traditional exterior, however, the Denton 85th Anniversary is bang up to date and utilises a mixture of traditional and advanced technology. The bass unit features Wharfedale’s innovative woven Kevlar cone mounted on a rigid die-cast chassis, this combination delivering a rich, detailed bass/midrange output with superb dynamic performance. High frequencies are handled by a woven textile soft dome treble unit with high flux ferrite magnet, engineered for smooth, detailed HF extension. These drive units are combined by a highly researched crossover that is near inaudible to the listener, resulting in a coherent, seamless musical output that is both thrilling and natural in its rendition of any source material. The Denton 85 Anniversary speakers are now available in 3 different finishes. Walnut, Mahogany, and now Black. Walnut Mahogany Black Most famous Loudspeaker Wharfedale is proud to present this 85th Anniversary Edition of one of the brand’s most famous and popular loudspeakers – the Denton. Gilbert Briggs, who founded Wharfedale in 1932, turned the company into one of the most famous loudspeaker brands in the world by concentrating on quality and value for money. The Wharfedale Denton exemplified these two edicts, balancing fine craftsmanship, natural sound quality and affordability inside a compact loudspeaker that was bought in its millions right across the globe. The original Denton went on to further other models based on its highly popular formula, the Denton 3 being the last of the line… …until now!

Veritably a modern classic!

Review: Absolutely Awesome - These speakers are amazing. Yes they are heavy so think carefully where they are going to be displayed. Speaker Wire is required which can be purchased separately. Delivery was excellent, the speakers were well packed in a very sturdy box, then wrapped in bubble wrap and the top layer was waterproof. There is a 3 year warranty that can be registered via a QR code on the paperwork and instructions that are supplied in the box. The sound is superb, every pitch, tone, bass, treble and note are easily noticed. I would definitely recommend these speakers.

A: It'll work, but might distort at high levels.  I'd recommend 100w
