Really interesting post. I too have a pair of Wharfedale Denton 80th Anniversary speakers running Bluesound (Tidal) in my basement "man-cave". I'm continually shocked by how good they sound as I run through some "retro" equipment - a Marantz 170DC amp and Luxman CL-350 preamp. I've always attributed the sweet sound mainly to the room acoustics but maybe I should be giving the speakers a bit more credit!
What is this speaker doing right?
I have a pair of Wharfedale Denton 80th Anniversary speakers running Bluesound (Tidal) through a Creek EVO 100A integrated. For the past 3 hours I've hands down enjoyed these more than my KEF LS50s. And I enjoyed listening to this, in subjective terms, more than my rig in a dedicated room.
The question is, Why?
The KEFs discretely separate things. My other system is euphonic. The Wharfedales have phony mid bass warmth--I love them.
What is going on?!
