Wharfedale is the British heavyweight champion of value-for-money loudspeakers. Every single component, from woofer cone to cabinet, is both designed and built in-house. This creates unparalleled quality control while maintaining the lowest possible price. And with a range that extends from entry-level to extreme luxury, Wharfedale has a specific loudspeaker to suit you – anywhere along your audio journey.

Bookshelf speakers are often cited for being affordable, compact, and efficient. So, they’re cost effective, easy to position and require less amp power – making them a highly attractive option. While they don’t produce the same presence as floorstanding speakers, they’re often thought to produce better imaging properties.

An all-new 9000 square ft. production facility, including a new anechoic chamber, was added to the original R&D headquarters to offer discerning listeners the absolute best of British audio. This product is manufactured by highly trained and vastly experienced loudspeaker experts at headquarters in Huntingdon. Cambridgeshire UK

A COMEAU SIGNATURE SPEAKER

“The idea was simple—create a compact speaker with full-scale sound. It’s a concept I’ve pursued my entire career.” – Peter Comeau, Director of Acoustic Design, Wharfedale

Handcrafted in the UK, Wharfedale’s Aston Heritage Edition embodies high-fidelity excellence. Designed by Peter Comeau, this ‘signature’ two-way standmount speaker merges decades of innovation with British craftsmanship. Destined to become a highly sought-after HiFi collector’s piece, Aston joins Wharfedale’s Heritage Series as a highly limited edition luxury standmount loudspeaker, with only 500 pairs to ever be released… worldwide.

WHARFEDALE ASTON

Aston is a limited edition, 2-way standmount loudspeaker featuring a 1" (25mm) fabric dome tweeter and a 6" (150mm) carbon fibre mid/bass driver. Delivering enhanced driver technology, bass reflex tuning, and a refined crossover for superior clarity, Aston stands at 340 x 200 x 255mm, ideal for small-to-medium listening spaces.

BUILT FOR A CHOSEN FEW

Aston isn’t just another loudspeaker; it’s a rare piece of Wharfedale history. Limited to just 500 numbered pairs, each speaker is handcrafted in the UK to the highest possible standard. Designed as Peter Comeau’s signature model, Aston blends heritage, meticulous craftsmanship, and audiophile performance that will be coveted by thousands and owned by very few.

THE BREATH BETWEEN NOTES

Aston’s 1" (25mm) fabric dome tweeter, paired with a ceramic magnet and damped rear chamber, delivers astonishing treble clarity. By reducing resonance well below the crossover point, your highs remain smooth, detailed, and distortion-free—so you catch the breath between vocal phrases or the crystalline shimmer of a cymbal as it fades into silence.

TUNED TO PERFECTION

Meticulously tuned by Peter Comeau over 1000s of hours in close listening sessions, Aston’s crossovers cleverly weave disparate drivers into a seamless sonic whole. Combining air-core inductors with premium polypropylene capacitors, Aston delivers absolute transparency, clarity, and balance—preserving every nuance of your music with breathtaking realism.

SILENCE NEVER SOUNDED BETTER

Handcrafted and acoustically engineered, Aston’s cabinet is a masterpiece of British craftsmanship. Multi-layered wood construction, strategic bracing, and resonance-damping glue work in harmony to eliminate unwanted vibrations that blur detail, smear transients, and mask the music’s true texture.

MADE IN UK

Wharfedale’s expanded Cambridgeshire facility saw Aston become its second Made in Britain loudspeaker in decades. An all-new 9000 square ft. production facility, including a new anechoic chamber, was added to the original R&D headquarters to offer discerning listeners the absolute best of British audio.

MID-BASS MAGIC

Aston’s 6" (150mm_ carbon fibre cone delivers tight, textured bass and expressive midrange clarity—proof that strength and speed can coexist. Anchored by a die-cast chassis and tuned with dual reflex ports, it extends effortlessly below 50Hz, while its profiled phase plug ensures natural, articulate vocals.

DRIVEN TO PERFORM

Aston’s advanced motor system ensures every note is delivered with authority and finesse. Engineered to minimise energy loss, it maximises cone control for tighter bass, cleaner transients, and an ultra-smooth upper midrange—perfectly complemented by a profiled phase plug for stunning vocal and instrumental realism.

A TOUCH OF GLASS

Handcrafted in England from robust British steel with a luxurious furniture-grade glass insert, every aspect of Aston’s complementary stands are engineered for sonic precision and aesthetic elegance. From internal damping, cable management, to its fully adjustable stainless steel spikes, every attention to detail reinforces Aston’s no-compromise ‘Made in the UK’ philosophy.
