Post Date:2023-02-25

 

Wharfedale Dovedale Loudspeaker

 

Wharfedale has the announced the new member of its Heritage line this week: The new Wharfedale Dovedale. This revived version is inspired from the Dovedale 3 model launched in 1971 (The very first Dovedale model was lunched in 1965). The new Dovedale was designed by Peter Comeau who also designed  the Mission 770  and 700

 

The Dovedale is a 3-way design standmount loudspeaker with a 1" soft dome Tweeter, 1 x 5" Midrange and 1 x 10" black woven Kevlar cone Woofer. The speaker has a frequency range of 36-20K HZ and a sensitivity of 89 DB. Wharfedale Dovedale has an MSRP of 5000GBP per pair in UK, and we aren't informed about the US price yet.
