The top line of acoustics from\u00a0\u00a0Wharfedale has been\u00a0\u00a0replenished: the compact\u00a0\u00a0ELYSIAN 1 bookshelf speakers\u00a0\u00a0have received the exterior characteristic of the entire series, excellent technical characteristics and a serious set of speakers that provide a truly flagship sound level.\u00a0Every element of\u00a0\u00a0Wharfedale ELYSIAN 1 loudspeakers is\u00a0designed according to the strictest standards: drivers, crossover and even the cabinet itself are assembled to offer potential owners the maximum “sound” at a reasonable price.<\/p>\n

The speakers borrowed its key features from the first models of the series ( ELYSIAN 4\u00a0and\u00a0ELYSIAN 2\u00a0) – judging by the number of awards they won, the base of\u00a0ELYSIAN 1 is\u00a0very strong!\u00a0In particular, it uses an\u00a0AMT\u00a0high-frequency emitter\u00a0\u00a0developed specifically for the flagship\u00a0Wharfedale\u00a0series\u00a0.\u00a0The ingenious tweeter design provides extra depth, while the ultra-light diaphragm material and damped rear chamber deliver unique treble clarity for a device of this level.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0ELYSIAN 1 loudspeaker is\u00a0implemented in a two-way configuration and is equipped with its own midrange \/ woofer with a diameter of 180 mm with a fiberglass cone, capable of playing frequencies up to 49 Hz.\u00a0Its potential is especially felt in the drums and wind instrument parts: the level of detail here is noticeably higher than that of any other top-class shelf players.\u00a0And thanks to the\u00a0SLPP\u00a0(\u00a0Slot-Loaded Profiled Port)\u00a0bass reflex design\u00a0, this acoustics allows you to really feel the bass even with mid-range amplifiers.<\/p>\n

Plus, you don’t have to waste time looking for the perfect location for the system itself or a suitable listening point.\u00a0The design allows\u00a0ELYSIAN 1 to\u00a0evenly fill the surrounding space with music and completely solve the positioning problem.\u00a0Everything about the external “performance” is already clear: like other models of the flagship line from\u00a0Wharfedale\u00a0, the compact novelty looks like a finished interior decoration, and the piano lacquer finish and hand polishing turn it into a work of art.<\/p>\n
