Wharfedale Pro: MP2800

For over 13 years the Wharfedale Pro MP2800 has been used by customers around the world who stretch it to its limits.

Pushed to the limits of extreme heat, poor ventilation, shocking vibration and surviving in incredible levels of dust, and irregular AC conditions, MP2800 has proved itself as truly reliable.

Its massive toroidal transformer fills over a third of the internal casing and ensures smooth power stability in almost any AC situation.
It may not be the prettiest, it may not be the lightest, it may not be the most technologically advanced but, like a favourite hammer, its a tool to rely on.
