Sale of Wharfedale E50's

[tubehunter]

Hi All,

Here are my vintage Wharfedale E50 Loudspeakers, in pretty good condition considering their age.
These are very efficent so low powered valve amps have no problem driving these to very high sound levels.
I have a single ended 10 watt per channel valve amp which sounds very good indeed through these speakers.
Great dynamics and speed, even at low listening levels.
The only reason these are offered for sale is I was luckly enough to purchase a pair of Wharfedale Vanguards,
which was the top of the "E" range.
The bass units have been professionally re-glued at some stage so no problems there.
All other drive units are operating as they should.
The stands are included, which I built using hard wood and are fitted with adjustable spikes.

£150

Thanks Steve,

Yes they did sound great, being driven with that Wad Kat34 valve amp.
