Hi..I got a pair of these Evo 4.2's on eBay for just £ 450 !! and I totally agree. They are stunning. Best speakers I've ever bought. Thanks for your review which inspired me to get them. Ta Rob😊
Hi I have these since 2022. True to what you said about them yes. I had the opportunity to use them from an entry level SMSL amp/DAC to SMSL D9 amp and Topping A90 as preamp. That jump in the amp made a big difference to its sound. And currently I upgraded to Topping PA7 with Topping A90 as preamp and SMSL DO200 DAC. That jump makes a significant sound improvements, really. The speakers now sounds more dynamic and the separation of instruments are even evident. Thanks for your review about them.
I own these, they rival speakers I have that are 3 times the cost. They do some things rather well, then they do some things that can't be topped. My gear: Marants Pre, Denon POA 2200, Pro-Ject T1 Marantz CD 6006
Wow your review is somewhat different than others? Some say that they are great but that the tweeter is not great , unless you are setting right inline with it , and at ear level. That if you don’t have it pointed right at you , or stand up you lose some of the sound quality ?
It's actually not a true 6,5 inch woofer. It measures only 13 cm at best, which is approx. 5,1 inch. They put a big black band around it, but that's not part of the driver.
Your right , I meant it has no ports visible ie front or back , trying not to make mistakes in a youtube video can be quite tricky , but thank god I have comments like yours to keep me on my toes
@@FatpigeonAudioReviews If you ever get a chance which is unlikely, audition the Tannoy XT8F. You will be astonished how good they are. They have a port on the underneath of the cabinet and are dual chamber bass reflex.
I wish they would make a slightly bigger version of these, with proper woofers, 8" or something. As they are, they're great sounding but seriously lack bass depth.
Son muy bonitos la verdad, yo tengo los 4.3 y estoy encantado con su sonido. Whaferdale esta trabajando muy bien y se nota la calidad de la serie Evo. Con el tiempo intentaré ir a por la serie Elysian.
Will the sound signature different from the 4.2 to the 4.4 If i wear to buy the 4.2 will with an excellent subwoofer will i miss any this with the 4.4 ? ( sound quality)

Great review Garreth, funny as usual :P These look gorgeous in walnut. Take care mate!
Wife approval 😂. What a cracking speaker for £649. Love the looks 😍 of them. 🤞 For the next video 😀.

Because of your enthusiasm, the price went up by 30% in 2024, lol. Wharfedale should pay you for a sales job well done.
You did not like them then lol, nice review thanks was wondering how these new Wharfedales sounded. Thanks

How on earth can it be a sealed cabinet if it has a port at the bottom? Surely if it has a reflex port than it's not sealed.
