DS2 Active Bookshelf Speakers

$549.99

The DS2 is a pair of active desktop hi-fi speakers — a complete powered system with built-in amplification and Bluetooth, ideal for a desk, bedroom or compact living space. A 3" (75 mm) woven polypropylene woofer and a 19 mm silk-dome tweeter per speaker deliver clean, room-filling sound with no separate amplifier required.

Onboard digital amplification delivers 2 × 15 W with DSP, while aptX Bluetooth and a 3.5 mm aux input cover wireless and wired sources across a 120 Hz – 20 kHz response. A gloss front panel and leatheroid-wrapped cabinet bring a premium look to a compact footprint.

It is a true plug-and-play hi-fi system — for larger powered speakers see our Diamond Active Series, or explore our full bookshelf speaker range.

Wharfedale Australia is the official, AVR-authorised distributor — every DS2 is backed by genuine Australian warranty and local support.
