Wharfedale was founded in 1932 by Gilbert Briggs in Yorkshire, England, driven by a passion for music and a determination to improve sound reproduction. The brand later became well known for innovative loudspeakers, including the long-running Diamond series. In 1998 Wharfedale Pro was established to serve the professional and commercial audio market, and today the company continues to design and manufacture its products in-house as part of the International Audio Group.
The Wharfedale Pro Amplifiers range at Commercial Audio Solutions focuses on versatile multi-channel power amplifiers designed for modern installed and live sound applications. These amplifiers combine efficient Class D technology with built-in digital signal processing, offering flexible control of equalisation, limiting and other parameters from a compact 1U rack-mount chassis.
Available in two- and four-channel configurations, the amplifiers support both low-impedance operation for conventional speaker systems and high-voltage 70-volt or 100-volt line outputs for distributed audio. Bridging options further increase power delivery when higher output is required on fewer channels. This versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of system designs without the need for separate amplifiers for different speaker types.
Typical applications include commercial installations such as retail centres, hotels, educational facilities, houses of worship and multi-zone venues, as well as live sound reinforcement for small to medium events. The combination of high power density, DSP control and multi-mode output capability allows system designers to create efficient, reliable amplification stages that adapt to different loudspeaker loads and coverage requirements.
Wharfedale Pro amplifiers are valued for their practical feature set, solid construction and ability to deliver consistent performance in everyday professional use. Whether powering a distributed background music system or a full-range live PA, these units provide a flexible foundation for clear, controlled audio.
