from uBid.com Summary: Grabbed a pair from uBid for a song. I figured they would be decent speakers because of their pedigree. Incorrect. They are really terrific! They compare favorably to the incredible Axiom M3Ti and Michaura M55. The Wharfedales are much better than the excellent Polk RT25s and blow away Infinity's RS3s. Bass is surprisingly strong for bookshelves, mids are sweet and acurate, and the highs are open, clear and very pleasant. I'm using the Wharfedales for my garage system - a beautiful vintage Pioneer SX850, a rebuilt Kenwood SW300 subwoofer (new partsexpress.com Dayton II 10" woofer) and an old JVC 6 disc CD player. The combination is magical. I wash the cars to the tunes. Strengths: Strong, musical bass (assisted by the sub), sweet, wonderful mids (great for jazz, blues, crooners, female vocals, rock), pleasant, accurate highs. Very balanced speaker. Weaknesses: Black wood cabinets not as nice as rosewood. Similar Products Used: Axiom M22's, Axiom M3s, Michaura M55s, Polk RT25, Infinity RS3s. Wharfedales are warmer than the M22s, similar but not as accurate as the M3s, better than the Polks & Infinities.
