Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The WH series

Perfect if you love your stereo front speakers. Go multi-channel with our WH rear speakers. Excellent sonic integration into any system makes it an ideal and cost-effective solution for upgrading your system.

A good centre channel has to have a smooth even frequency response throughout the vocal section of the sonic spectrum - tuned slightly differently from other speakers, the centre channel will handle most of the dialogue and vocals, making it one of the most important speakers in any package. The WH packages all feature exceptionally high quality centre channels.

In WH series, four packages and a choice of subwoofer are available to match cohesively into virtually any system.

‘Bi-polar’ rear design

The WH-2 System uses a ‘Bi-polar’ design (for the rear speakers) for a broad soundstage with a more enveloping sound. Two long-throw, polypropylene bass/mid drivers are used in each of the surround and center speakers for exceptional dynamics as well as good tonal integration. 28mm fluid cooled, dome tweeters feature on both center and surround for tightly controlled high frequency response.

The WH-20 System is a larger, more powerful version of the WH-2, featuring larger enclosures and drive units for improved bass response and better integration with larger speakers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great sounding speakers, December 28, 2003
This review is from: Wharfedale WH-2 Wide-Dispersion Satellite Speakers, White (Pair) (Electronics)
I bought these to use for surrounds. I have definitive Technology BP10's for mains and love the bi-polar sound. Well after trying these out I have decided to use them for mains. They don't match the sound of the BP10's but come close enough.
The sound is great and I am pleased. May buy 2 more for rears. You can't go wrong on these for $100

5.0 out of 5 stars Small and Surprising, November 16, 2003
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Wharfedale WH-2 Wide-Dispersion Satellite Speakers, White (Pair) (Electronics)
I was looking for a replacement for my current surrounds that would be small yet offer decent range and a dispersed field. Remembered the Wharfedale name from the 80's, figured for the price and with Amazon's return policy these were worth a look. I have been pleasantly surprised. First impression when you open the box is that these are solid, very well constructed and nicely finished. Sound is fairly accurate. Mids and highs very good for this price range, lows were an improvement over the Bose I had been using. The speaker is able to provide the effects without calling attention to its position, something the previous unit could not do. I plan to buy some more to use as background speakers throughout the house.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent ambient speakers for loose change, May 26, 2006
This review is from: Wharfedale WH-2 Wide-Dispersion Satellite Speakers, White (Pair) (Electronics)
Terrific value here. I wanted to fill out my second surround system without spending a mint and these caught my eye. After a little research I decided I'd give em a try. I wasn't expecting a whole lot from these being less than 130 bucks; the WH2s are a terrific compliment to my little system. They are not as bulky as the surrounds of my main system, and they hit the highs and mids crisply without calling attention to themselves. They blend well with my other components and I couldn't be happier. For the novice or the man on a modest budget I doubt these little guys can be beat.
