The Wharfedale DX-2 was the standard bearer for entry-level home cinema solutions – the crowned champion of ‘Best Speaker Packages under £500’ in the annual What Hi-Fi? awards, for FIVE consecutive years!
Now updated for 2023, with a clean-new aesthetic and inheriting performance and styling tweaks, based upon the Wharfedale Diamond 12 series, the new DX-3 is the blockbuster sequel and the new system of choice for those yearning for a home cinema experience but limited on space or budget and is now available as a stereo pair option.
Marking the 3rd iteration of the acclaimed system, the satellite speakers bring in new heritage and are now styled closer to the award-winning Diamond 12 series, making for a more contemporary solution. The cabinets have also been revised in looks but also with a new structure, not only to enhance the aesthetic but also to aid with the resonant control and dynamic performance, resulting in an even more impressive mini loudspeaker cabinet. Handling dialogue, sound effects and music with ease, solidity and detail, the DX-3 is extremely versatile.
Overall, home cinema systems are subject to high demands in terms of audio performance. Despite being compact and affordable, the DX-3 is feature-rich and built upon a strong foundation to provide a space-saving, budget-friendly system without sacrificing a thrilling home cinema experience.
Updated cabinets with design traits taken from the Wharfedale Diamond 12 series mean the system is recognisably different, and all for the better!
Traits of more than one legend
Cabinets, drivers, structure and performance are closer to the Diamond 12 series – an award-winning home theatre system of its own right!
The DX-2 is arguably the most award-laden speaker system in recent history, so you can be sure that the DX-3 is more than just a B-movie and more of a blockbuster sequel!
