Congratulations on the purchase of your DP-D series professional power amplifier. Wharfedale Pro DP-D 

amplifiers are the result of many years of experience in the use, design and manufacture of professional 

audio equipment.

We take great pride in engineering and building every Wharfedale Pro product and wish to thank you for 

entrusting us with your sound.

From the time Gilbert Briggs built his first loudspeaker in 1932, to the present day, Wharfedale has

 

maintained the same standard of quality in components, workmanship and performance.

Please take the time to read this manual completely in order to ensure that you get the most from your 

DP-D power amplifier.

INTRODUCTION

The advanced multi-channel DP-D series power amplifiers use Class D topology to deliver enormous output 

power, all the way down to 2Ω.  This makes them perfect for multi-loudspeaker systems such as line array.

Powerful internal DSP is accessible through the front panel, or through the supplied control software.  This

high quality DSP delivers granular editing of EQ, Limiting, Delay, phase and filtering to the signal path, 

allowing a DP-D amp to become the system controller as well as the power amplifier.  This DSP removes

 

the need for additional external signal processing.

Input connectivity is handled either by discrete analogue XLR connectors on the rear panel or by the RS485

 

connectors on the front which accept AES3 digital inputs.

Housed in a 1U rack, the DP-D models are compact, and lightweight but still bring huge power with extremely 

detailed levels of DSP control.
