Product description
Wharfedale's 90th-anniversary three-way stand-mount — a rare modern continuation of the original Dovedale, built around a 10-inch woven-Kevlar woofer, a 5-inch Kevlar midrange and a 1-inch soft-dome tweeter. UK-built with hand-veneered walnut, it reaches 36 Hz — a large, characterful heritage monitor for a medium-to-large room, on heavy stands.
