Wharfedale DIY KIT
Fifty years after inspiring a generation of DIY enthusiasts, Wharfedale proudly presents a limited edition release of two brand-new kits. These kits not only celebrate our brand’s rich history but also honour the revival of the DIY movement, following the legacy of the Wharfedale Heritage Series. Each kit—available in both 2-way and 3-way configurations—is limited to just 500 units worldwide.
Inside each kit, you’ll find everything needed to build your own high-performance speakers: fully assembled crossovers, low-frequency drivers, midrange drivers (included in the 3-way kit), and meticulously matched high-frequency drivers. Each component is crafted to the exacting standards that Wharfedale is renowned for, with specifications and tuning overseen by Peter Comeau. The kit also includes terminal panels, connecting cables, full-size cutting templates, and detailed instructions—just like the kits of a half-century ago.
Presented in a luxurious gift box, these kits are not only collector’s items but also the perfect project for hobbyists. The Wharfedale 2-way and 3-way kits offer an exciting opportunity to create a masterpiece that you can take pride in.
