About Wharfedale - did you know?

ORIGINS

Wharfedale was founded in 1932 by Gilbert Briggs, a music enthusiast and amateur engineer. He built his first loudspeaker in the cellar of his home in Ilkley, Yorkshire. The location, nestled in the valley of the River Wharfe—an area known as Wharfedale—inspired the brand name.

THE INNOVATORS

In 1945, Wharfedale introduced one of the first two-way loudspeakers—a revolutionary design featuring a dedicated tweeter and mid/bass driver with an advanced crossover system. In the 1950s, they introduced industry-first technologies like ceramic magnets and roll surrounds. These improved speaker durability and efficiency.
