Product Description
Product Description:
With a performance as inviting as its classical good looks, the Emerald, now in its second generation, is a truly refined speaker. Designed with a distinctly art-deco feel, the speakers from the new Emerald range are built into a real wood cabinet, producing a rich, warm sound, steeped in emotion. Although undisclosed by the appearance of the Emeralds, technology is used extensively in the manufacture. Complex computer modeling has been used in the design of the cabinets to minimize coloration, the woofer cones are constructed using the patented mineral loaded homopolymer plastic to damp unwanted resonances, whilst retaining the strength to keep bass accurate and dynamic. Finally, laser interferometry has been used to create a truly outstanding tweeter for the Emeralds.The end result is a classic amongst speakers - a dry acoustic character with a revealing and flawless transparency.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Speakers.......2001-07-07

Though they tend to sound only average with the volume turned down, crank 'em up a bit and these speakers sound as crisp and clean as anything out there. When the drummer starts playing a little high hat, and the accustic guitar kicks in, you'll think the musicians are in the room with you. Truely fantastic.

5 out of 5 stars Impressive Value.......2001-06-26

These speakers sound better (at least to me and my wife) than ones we had showroom-tested that cost twice as much. They actually cost less than my last set and sound significantly better. While not in the class of $2,000 speakers, the Wharfdales are exceptionally good and should meet the needs of all but the most discerning listeners. (And you have to be under 30 to fit that category.) After then, your hearing discrimination starts to go.) This may be the best value out there.

5 out of 5 stars great speaker at a great price!!!!!!!!!!.......2001-05-19

Wasn't familiar with the Wharfedale speaker until I came across it on this site. With further investigation, I decided to give them a try without ever hearing them!!!!!! I was amazed at how tired my 15 year old Advent Legacy speakers sounded,which incidentally were the same price as these speakers. Crisp, clean, and with sufficient bass. These are serious speakers at a ridiculously low price!!! Would highly recommend to anyone. They look and sound as if I paid thousands!!!!!!!!!!

5 out of 5 stars amazing!.......2000-12-30

first pair of decent speakers I have ever owned. A great thing!
