Who is the official Australian distributor for Wharfedale?

Audio Visual Revolution (AVR) is Australia's exclusive distributor for Wharfedale. All Wharfedale speakers sold through avrevolution.com.au and our authorised dealer network carry a 1-year Australian warranty, extended to 3 years when registered with AVR within 90 days of purchase, and are supported locally — no overseas returns required. AVR has distributed Wharfedale in Australia since the brand's relaunch under the IAG Group.

How many What Hi-Fi? Awards has the Wharfedale Diamond series won?

The Wharfedale Diamond series has won 14 What Hi-Fi? Awards since 2020 — making it one of the most consistently awarded speaker ranges in the world at its price point. The Diamond 12.1 held the What Hi-Fi? Award for Best Standmount Speaker Under £300 for multiple consecutive years. The Diamond 12i (launched December 2025) refines the bass-reflex port, tightens driver tolerances, and introduces three new finishes.

What is the difference between the Wharfedale Diamond 12 and Diamond 12i?

The Diamond 12i is a refined update to the award-winning Diamond 12 series. Key changes: improved bass-reflex port geometry, tighter driver production tolerances, and three new finishes (Deep Black, Stone Grey, Classic Walnut). New buyers should choose the 12i. Existing Diamond 12 owners do not need to upgrade.

Are Wharfedale speakers made in the UK?

Wharfedale was founded in Ilkley, Yorkshire, England in 1932 by Gilbert Briggs — making it one of the world's longest-running loudspeaker manufacturers. Speakers are designed in the UK by Wharfedale's engineering team under the IAG Group and manufactured in China. Heritage models — including the Linton 85 and Super Linton — are specifically engineered to revive Wharfedale's classic British sound signature from the 1960s and 1970s.

All Wharfedale speakers purchased through AVR or an authorised AVR dealer carry a 1-year Australian warranty, extended to 3 years when the product is registered with AVR within 90 days of purchase.
