For extra rigidity, reinforcing ribs were added to the back side. The increased area of contact with the deadening rubber contributes to the outstanding vibration-damping characteristic that is more than two times higher than that of the SL-1200MK5.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Sensitivity Tonearm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tonearm, which is responsible for accurately reading the signal by tracking the groove on the phono record, is a static-balance universal S-shape tonearm, another Technics tradition. The tonearm pipe is made of lightweight, high-rigidity aluminium. The bearing section of the gimbal suspension construction tonearm consists of a machined housing and high-precision bearing to provide high initial sensitivity. All in all, the tonearm accurately traces the groove on the record and reads the signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-sound-quality MM cartridge provided\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplied universal head shell is mounted with an Ortofon 2M RED cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tonearm height can be easily adjusted within a range of 6 mm to enable the use of various other phono cartridges.

The aluminium die-cast chassis is rigidly integrated with a special material consisting of ABS mixed with glass fiber to achieve a two-layer construction. The combination of this special high-rigidity material and a metal chassis raised the rigidity and vibration-damping performance to higher levels, realising a robust cabinet for beautiful sound reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe insulator is comprised of a spring and rubber to provide optimal frequency characteristics. This not only assures high sound quality and superb howling resistance, but also effectively shuts out external vibrations under high sound level conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in Phono EQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe built-in MM phono equaliser allows direct connection even to devices without a PHONO input, enabling immediate playback without external units. With all wiring kept inside the chassis, noise is minimised and the PHONO signal is routed through the shortest path to reduce loss. When using an external phono EQ, the internal circuit can be fully bypassed to maintain signal purity. LINE\/PHONO output switching provides optimal compatibility with any system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA low-noise FET is used at the input stage to handle the cartridge’s delicate signal, and the design eliminates input coupling capacitors to preserve purity. A carefully tuned combination of discrete components and an op-amp—refined through repeated listening tests—delivers high sound quality.

Like its predecessor, it is designed to punch well above its size, delivering a rich, engaging sound from a compact cabinet. And just as the DENTON 80th and 85th anniversary models revived classic design cues, the 1S evolves the formula further — blending heritage aesthetics with advanced acoustic engineering to meet the demands of contemporary listening spaces, yet again proving that Wharfedale’s heritage comes in more than one form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"shogun-heading-component\"\u003eWHARFEDALE Denton 1S Heritage Bookshelf Speakers\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA New Compact Classic ReimaginedFirst introduced in 1967, the original DENTON was Wharfedale's answer to a changing hi-fi landscape - a truly compact loudspeaker that delivered natural sound, fine craftsmanship, and outstanding value. The DENTON 1 followed in 1974 with a new styling that challenged convention not only through its engineering, but also in its appearance, stepping away from the traditional wooden-box aesthetic in favour of a more utilitarian, forward-looking 'late modernist' design. That same spirit of reinvention defines the new Wharfedale DENTON 1S.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DENTON 1S is not a simple revival. It is a clean-sheet reinterpretation of what a compact, modern hi-fi loudspeaker can be — combining contemporary acoustic engineering with unmistakable British design identity. Adopting a coaxial point-source architecture inspired by the original DENTON 1, it delivers exceptional coherence and precision in a modern, compact, and purposeful form. Developed as an engineering challenge to explore new paths within Wharfedale loudspeaker design, the DENTON 1S is playful yet technically serious, confident yet refined. It is also unmistakably contemporary while honouring Wharfedale's enduring legacy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoaxial Precision: One Acoustic Centre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe brand-new coaxial driver is a sophisticated two-way system that positions a 25mm silk-dome tweeter concentrically within a 165mm advanced polypropylene cone.

This new cone material is developed to build upon Wharfedale’s longstanding driver fundamentals while introducing improved rigidity, low mass, and controlled self-damping characteristics. The result is a driver that combines natural tonal balance with excellent transient accuracy and reduced colouration across the critical midrange region.\u003cbr\u003eHigh frequencies are smooth and detailed, aided by the silk-dome tweeter’s damped rear chamber and high-flux motor system.\u003cbr\u003eWith 88dB sensitivity and a benign 8-ohm nominal impedance, the DENTON 1S is easily driven by a wide range of amplifiers — making it a flexible partner for both classic hi-fi systems and modern integrated amplifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStand, Shelf or Wall\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe DENTON 1S has been engineered for placement flexibility as well as acoustic performance.\u003cbr\u003ePrimarily designed as a standmount loudspeaker, it also offers suitability for installed or on-wall applications.
