A two-way bookshelf in the classic Denton tradition, released for Wharfedale's 85th anniversary — a 165 mm woven-Kevlar mid-bass and a 25 mm soft-dome tweeter in a hand-veneered mahogany cabinet, rear-ported in the British heritage style. A warm, characterful stand-mount for a small-to-mid room, on stands.
