XARUS series

Designed as an updated version of the best-selling Valdus line, XARUS extends the concept with a new choice of finishes and options (including AV Shielding), as well as updated versions of all the drive units and a sleek new appearance. Performance has been significantly enhanced. Wharfedale sees this product as a key tool to help expand its growing influence in the Home DJ / Youth and AV Markets.

The most significant upgrade for Xarus series is the new tweeter. The 25mm soft dome, ferrofluid cooled unit extends performance beyond 24KHz whilst a protection bar system prevents any physical damage to the unit.
A neodymium magnet is used in the construction of the tweeter. A high flux density allows for extremely high-power from the minimum weight and size.
The new Polypropylene cone is an elliptical low-distortion unit capable of handling even extreme dynamics with ease - perfect for AV use.
All models are equipped with Bi-Wirable terminals for high quality applications, reducing driver intermodulation.
Xarus Centre will be magnetically shielded for AV use.

Xarus series is not for the faint-hearted. Powerful and dynamic, all models in the range can produce exceptional sound pressure levels with even modest amplification.
Surefooted and robust, they plumb the depths of the frequency spectrum with control and precision to create a fully immersive hi-fi experience. They go way beyond the ‘Nightclub’ or ‘Cinema’, offering levels of insight and delivery that only the most extreme systems are capable of.
Strong neodymium powered magnets steer state-of-the-art ferrofluid cooled tweeters to crystal clear highs with a room-filling dispersion that is the envy of speakers many times the price. Only this kind of accuracy can produce a stereo image capable of placing each instrument and vocal precisely. High-excursion ‘curvilinear’ drive units dish out heart-stopping transients, starting and stopping instantly. An adrenaline fuelled roller-coaster ride through a detailed and well-defined soundstage.
