80 years of innovation and tradition In 1932, Wharfedale was founded by Gilbert Briggs, who developed the first loudspeakers in the basement of his home in Ilkley, southern England. This tranquil little town became the birthplace of one of the most famous loudspeaker manufacturers in the world; a synonym for quality and innovation!
