For those seeking a more discreet, stylish and affordable solution for genuine surround sound, the New DX-2 5.1 speaker system from Wharfedale is ideal.

Consisting of four satellite speakers for the front and rear, plus a compact centre speaker and an active subwoofer, the DX-2 replaces the similarly diminutive DX-1 series of speaker packages. These were universally praised for their excellent ‘sound-per-pound’ performance, earning five-star reviews in What Hi-Fi? and Home Cinema Choice magazines, scoring 9/10 on the Trusted Reviews website, and winning ‘Best Compact Loudspeaker System’ in last year’s AVTech Media Awards.

The DX-2 incorporates all the key ingredients that made the DX-1 HCP and DX-1SE packages so successful, re-engineered with an improved cabinet design and a smart, contemporary new look. The drive units have been fine-tuned and the active subwoofer upgraded with a more powerful and sophisticated integral amplifier, resulting in greater scale, punch and refinement.

Driver Configuration

Ideal for mounting on a wall or an AV stand or shelf, the small DX-2 Satellite has a 19mm silk dome tweeter and 75mm mid/bass driver with a woven polypropylene cone. The enclosure is an infinite baffle closed-box design, which means the speaker can be placed in close proximity to a wall without adversely affecting their performance.

The DX-2 Centre incorporates the same silk dome tweeter flanked by two 75mm mid/bass drivers in a similarly compact cabinet. The design includes an aperiodic bass loading system consisting of a vent that is filled with resistive porous foam.

WH-D8 Subwoofer

The matching WH-D8 active subwoofer features a 20cm long-throw bass driver powered by a 70w amplifier for fast, deep and well-defined sound. The quality of the subwoofer’s design ensures it integrates superbly with the other speakers in the package, without any hint of bass bloating or overhang. It also has an ‘auto-power’ facility, automatically switching in or out of standby when a signal is sensed.

Performance

The DX-2 5.1 speaker package delivers smart, space-saving contemporary style and exhilarating sound for both movies and music – fast, punchy and detailed, with a sense of scale that belies the diminutive size of the speakers.
