Wharfedale Super Denton

[tsfreo]

I realise you don't have any measurement data, but what do you prefer about the super dentins over the dbr62? I've got the latter plus sub, sounds great but I've got a large room and thinking of getting larger speakers and being less reliant on a sub.
I've got an acoustically challenging room and so use the Wiim room correction feature which works pretty well.

Hey Bernard, I can't send you a properly thoughtful response about the differences just now. I'm a bit pressed for time for the next few days.
But I will say that if you are looking for something that makes you less subwoofer reliant than you are with the DBR62s then the Supers probably won't really do that for you. They are a small three way speaker - but their woofer is the same size as the DBR62s and they don't particularly dig deep into the lower registers. I still use a sub with mine. Check out Erin's data on your speakers and the Super Dentons (incl at about 8 minutes in his video review of the Super Dentons) and you will see what I mean (and that matches my experience).
Large room, if you like the Wharfedale sound from this series, then I would choose the Linton 85th edition. I see what you are thinking about larger speakers so you are less sub reliant. As you know many bookshelf speakers can struggle a bit in a large room (notwithstanding any other acoustic challenges about your space).
Might be floorstander time (or big standmount like the Lintons).
