DX-3-HCP SUBWOOFERS
The Wharfedale DX-2 is 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.
INFORMATION
SAME BUT DIFFERENT
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!
SURROUND SOUND
The DX-3 5.0 system includes 4 x satellites and 1 x Centre speakers. The satellite speakers are also available in 2.0 and 5.0 configurations, allowing for expansion beyond 5.1
BASS RACE
The included WH-D8 is an active subwoofer that offers lively, deep bass, perfect for AV and music applications.
AWARDS SEASON
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!
DX-3 SYSTEM
For bass extension and impact, the DX-3 system relies on the 200mm long-throw driver in the powered DX-3 subwoofer, modelled upon the best-selling Wharfedale WH-D8.
Whole system tuning means the subwoofers rapid and controlled low-frequency extension has also evolved to match the satellite speaker’s new appearance and enhanced dynamics.
PERFORMANCE
As with the preceding DX-2, the DX-3 includes four satellite speakers for the front and rear, a compact centre speaker, and an powered subwoofer that has also been tweaked in conjunction with the satellite speakers.
Offering a more sophisticated performance, each of the satellite speakers employs a silk dome HF unit and 75mm bass driver engineered from a polypropylene base, which offers a performance akin to the PP cones featured in the Wharfedale Diamond 12 series.
WHARFEDALE DX-3 IS COMPACT
The Wharfedale DX-3 is compact, stylish and offers incredible value for money. 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.
INFORMATION
HOME CINEMA SYSTEMS
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.
