Wharfedale Elysian 2 Speaker, The Musical Phenomenon of 2020!

Dang, what a civilized way to kick off a video... wishing the audience a good day. Nice!

[@BlackHorseoftheHell]

Hey Tharbamar! I’d like to say that you are, undoubtedly one of the very best audio reviewers in KZbin, congratulations! Your descrption about these great and gourgeous loudspeakers was precise, complete and objective; you do know how to transmit all the content and points that really count; besides that, you speak about other loudspeakers, show your system [very good!], and, LET US LISTEN great songs using two good microphones, that’s great! I wish you all the best and thank you so much for doing this excellent work! We, that really appreciate good music and know the benefits of this, will always be thankful to people like you, because your knowledge and experiences are very welcome! THANK YOU! God bless you and your family!

[@Tharbamar]

Thank you very much!

[@izismael5075]

This is exactly my sentiment as well! Thank you both! I’m a subscriber now and look forward to checking out your other videos. Alas, I am a wanna-be audiophile. I have always loved excellent sound and recognized a long time ago that I’ll probably never be able to afford an audiophile system. I get my thrills from going to fine stores and hanging out in their sound rooms. 😁

[@gl9819]

Tharbamar hello.. what yor speakers cabel brand.. thanks

[@michaelford7922]

I bought the Elysian 2 in Nov 2023. I’m very pleased with them. They replaced my B&W 803d. I find them less fatiguing on longer listening sessions . I would have returned them if they had the same narrow sweet spot as the Evo line of Wharfedale speakers. The Elysian 2 don’t have quite the low end output of the B&W 803d with there three 7” woofers but on 95% of the music they are fine. The Elysian4 would have Ben to much in my 14x16 room.Great tone and easy listening with great detail.

[@jimfarrell4635]

I just purchased the Elysian 4 and you are right. They can play anything really, really well. With my previous speakers I found myself listening to acoustic and jazz music because that is what they excelled in and not to rock music which often ended up being a gloopy mess. With the Elysian it does not matter what I play. They sound wonderful driven by my Allnic 300b tube amp and my Kinki EX M1. I am rediscovering my music collection. It's great. I can't praise them enough and your review is spot on.

My test for the Rock or Progressive Rock genre is to put on an early copy of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon on vinyl and If the music fidelity knocks my socks off when listened to through a pair of speakers in a 2 channel setup powered by a good amplifier from a reputable brand like Yamaha or Anthem I know that I’ve got a pair of speakers that I’m going to happy with for a very long time.

This channel should be named as a Wharfedale reviews, because it is just a biased fanboy recommending every single wharfedale speakers regardless of the price point.

[@tomwebb7091]

Wharfedale is on a roll in terms of sales and reviews but not because they still make great sounding speakers. Original UK Wharfedales are great, but now its nothing more than a brandname used by IAG to make money... cheap chinese built for the most part, IAG have the coffers to pay off reviewers to 5 star rate just about every product they are involved with.... Wharfedale, Audiolab, Quad, Luxman (at least still Japanese and decent). Let me tell you the Wharfedale Denton 85th has dreadful treble grain and id expect the same of the Linton which uses the same tweeter but it wont matter to most audiofool buyers because they arent aware the sound is bad, they just love the retro style with the low price and just give up on the sound. I recently tried a pair of Evo 4.1 and again theres just no life in the music which comes out smooth yet dull and with a midrange suckout effect and no body to the treble (a common flaw of Amt i find).

[@georgepopescu1327]

@@tomwebb7091 what about the speakers from this review?

[@tomwebb7091]

@@georgepopescu1327 I havent heard them myself yet. My dealer, whom i trust implicitly says the Elysian are stunning. All the reviews ive read say they are outstanding. Having heard the Evo range im sure the Elysian are considerably better still, but then they should be at many times the price! What i like about the Elysian 4 is the high sensitivity and easy load for low powered valve amps. As ever, its about listening for yourself if you can and not buying blind from anyones recommendation... trust only your own ears 👍

Wow. Those do sound good. I really can't say anything negative about the current lineup of Wharfedale speakers. I have never heard any in person, and the first model I would like to hear is the Linton Heritage. But, these Elysian 2 sound great. I wonder what the character difference is between the two models. Tharbamar's system definitely is big bang for the buck.

[@richardwestmoreland4796]

I have a pair of bookshelves from Wharfedale from their Diamond 10 series and they sound beautiful. I have them positioned about 6 feet from the back wall,about 8 feet from where I sit and ever so slightly toed in to my main listening position. I’m not sure if the toe in is actually necessary because these speakers have a wide soundstage as they are but I’m single and can sit wherever I want to so toed in they are . I’ve had them for about 7 years and until I can afford something like these Elsysians they will be more than satisfying for me.

[@gryphongryph]

mrwallen no, I am not, in Japan the prices are not far of either, Accuphase prices outside Japan are just crazy, in Japan they are the same as Luxman, people in the know have a lot of respect for the highest offerings intergrated from Denon, but unfortunately these amps are not sold in USA or Europe!

[@terrywho22]

@@gryphongryph Yes, but just about every offering from Accuphase and *modern* Luxman (they had their dark times) is top shelf. Not so true with Denon. Their line is more in the class with Marantz. Now, the PMA-SX11 may be exceptional... I have yet to hear one so I can't say. The specs are great, but so are the specs of other PMA-series amps and some of them are nothing to get too excited over. If it indeed as good as you say, Denon need to do a better job of marketing their gear so that the consumer doesn't have to dig through their product line in order to separate the wheat from the chaff.

[@mrwallen]

gryphongryph do you also think Lada is right up there with BMW and Mercedes as well? A Denon A110 is just flashy junk compared to a Luxman L-509X.

I wanted to tell you, in the past two weeks based on your reviews, I bought the Quad S2's and the Denon PMA-2000IVR both on the used market at decent prices. Got very lucky with even finding that Denon, they're rarely on the market. So far so good. Thanks for your channel!

would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the sound Trent

[@thorstenamesoder4803]

Some Reviewers say, elac vela 409s sound more open, with little netter bass dynamics. To me, the listening fatigue is also one of the most important characteristics. So if the Elysian is better @ listening fatigue and tonality IT should be the better speaker. Anyway a Thambahar comparison of Elysian and elac vela would be a very interesting thing.

[@stoeldopje]

I never get why people test speakers using this chamber music which sounds good on any speaker. Feed it some good live recordings of pop/rock bands and you will hear the limitations (or none). Otherwise nice video, keep it up!

[@Tharbamar]

Hi, for the most music you can do without sub E2 or E4 depending on the size of the room but if you like to hear deepest notes from classical music or modern music sub is a must, you can’t go wrong with either one but watch out for workmanship, the one I had have hairline crack on veneer on one of the speaker.thanks

Bravo to them. A very old speaker company sould have real hi end speakers. Now for a center and sub in the series XD!?

[@warfam_clan6933]

I am lucky enough to have heard these and the 4's. They are most definitely in the 'End Game' bracket. Sound quality is subjective and if you are looking for a speaker of similarly high levels of build quality, very similar sound quality, and having in my opinion, an even better representation of single-point source sound you should try the Tannoy XT 8F. They have now finished production but can still be bought new for under £2000 UK. I have owned the Tannoys for 18 months and have never experienced quality like that at the price point. Many Reviewers and also Kevin Deal from Upscale Audio in California have compared the Tannoys to speakers in the $10000 bracket when they cost $2700. The Tulip WaveGuide tweeter invented by Tannoy literally allows the speakers to disappear. In my opinion, it is even more effective than the Air Motion Transducer. I am not putting the Warfedales down in any way as being from the UK, I have always loved the brand, but at £5000 they only trump the Tannoys in ultimate build detail and esthetics.

[@Tharbamar]

Thanks for the advice.

So that is i think the same Woofer as in there maybe a bit smaller . Midrange driver is a bit smaller on MB quarts 650s and tweeter is titanium dome not Ribon . But its very similar . Tho i trust Elysian 2 sounds better , but does it sound 20x better , that i doubt of course , i guess its maybe 2x better .

[@glenncurry3041]

I would suggest replacing the Star Quads. I used them for a while until my oldest son replaced his and told me to replace mine as well. He first noticed the problems. Not only sonically, but my amp ran cooler after replacing them. Measurable increase in dynamics. He went to Belden Ten White (5T00UP). I and my younger son went to shotgunned Monster. All of us have very different but turntable based audiophile systems. The improvement was very noticeable in every case.

[@Tharbamar]

Thanks for advice.

[@RR-ci3lx]

Canare Star Quad are great cables. Of course not the greatest. If I hear a speaker at a dealer singing great with 5k speaker cables and 7k ICs, I'd be wary to buy them unless I tried them with cables that I can afford. I think the focal point of this review is the speakers. And it makes sense to keep the rest of the chain as down-to-earth as possible.

If you don't want tubes, what about a Plinius or LFD? Any of those would transport those Wharfdales to the next level. Cheers!!

[@Tharbamar]

Thanks for advice, the amps you’ve suggested can deliver 60Amp of current when is needed? Please advise. Edit; If I go tube amplifier there is only one brand which is Line Magnetic but no tube for me.

[@terrywho22]

@@Tharbamar OK, fair enough, no tubes. The Plinius is a high current design, although I do not know how their amps compare to the output of the Denon PMA. I'm guessing given that since the Denon doubles power exactly going from 8Ω to 4Ω that its the high current champ in it's price range. Pass amps do that, and they are probably the best solid-state amps I have heard, but they cost more than the Denon. So your thinking is with low impedance speakers like the Wharfdales, you want an amp with sufficient current so that when you play loud you can accommodate any impedance dips? Makes good sense! Which amps did you compare the Denon to before you bought it?

[@terrywho22]

Nevermind, I see you have a couple vids on the subject already. I'll watch those to get your opinions. Thanks!

I believe it's due to the cordoil affect. It lowers the diagnostic criteria back to a tubular rectus in the ibosum.
