Re: Why so little info on Wharfedale?

I lucked out (IMHO) and bought a pair of W70D's from the original owner several months ago for $10. She was using them in her bedroom. I have heard that they do really well tubes. But, since I have yet to get to my tubes I tried several other combinations and surprisingly, I really like them mated to a Pioneer SX-3800 and a Miracord 40A TT. Have played tunes from The Who and Alan Parsons to Simon and Garfunkel and the Wharfedales lacked nothing. Especially with vocals. Very smooth and refined, and easily driven. Pushed them a little bit but wary not to destroy them. Oh yeah, her son remembered a tube amp—it was tossed years ago, bummer.
