Wharfedale is the British heavyweight champion of value-for-money loudspeakers. Every single component, from woofer cone to cabinet, is both designed and built in-house. This creates unparalleled quality control while maintaining the lowest possible price. And with a range that extends from entry-level to extreme luxury, Wharfedale has a specific loudspeaker to suit you – anywhere along your audio journey.

Bookshelf speakers are often cited for being affordable, compact, and efficient. So, they’re cost effective, easy to position and require less amp power – making them a highly attractive option. While they don’t produce the same presence as floorstanding speakers, they’re often thought to produce better imaging properties.

GIVING YOU GOOSEBUMPS

Goosebump-inducing audio has long been relegated to only the fattest wallets. But not anymore. Thanks to intelligent design aided by the advancements of modern computer simulation, it’s the music through Diamond 12 that’ll leave you speechless, not its price.

COSTLY? FINK AGAIN.

Collaboration with one of the most successful loudspeaker designers on the planet, Karl-Heinz Fink, has helped produce Wharfedale’s most impressive Diamond series to date, and your all-access pass to the exclusive world of refined audio engineering.

A LITTLE BIGGER, A LITTLE BADDER

These 2-way bookshelf loudspeakers feature 25mm textile dome tweeters and 130mm advanced PP mid/bass cone drivers. Combined with a slightly larger chassis, Diamond 12.1 offers deeper bass response and wider dynamic range, perfect for medium sized listening rooms.

PUTTING YOU IN HARMONY

Precision-made magnet systems incorporate aluminium compensation rings to cull distortion and discordant tones caused by intermodulation. Wharfedale’s most advanced Diamond motor system ever built now puts you in perfect harmony with your music.

WE CALL IT ‘KLARITY’

A new formulated blend of polypropylene and mica significantly reduce flex to create a rigid, lightweight cone with low colouration and lightning-fast response. So, your new Diamond’s play harder, handle more power, and perform flawlessly, every time.

DIVE IN TO YOUR MUSIC

Dome tweeters incorporate woven polyester film and high-loss coatings to generate silky smooth high-frequency extension. And with driver systems optimised for wide dispersion, vocals, woodwinds, and strings sections ripple out, wall-to-wall, bathing you in sound.

DETAIL WITH A SIDE OF RIBS

New drive cones include custom-engineered ribbing combined with a low-damping surround. This increases cone rigidity and reduces colouration, giving you a more dynamic, more detailed listening experience – one that honours (not colours) your favourite recordings.

CROSSOVER TO HIGH-END AUDIO

Air core inductors, typically found in the most expensive loudspeakers, produce the lowest distortion of all inductor types. Combined with acoustic LKR 24db crossover topology, it creates incredibly fast, clean bass response. It’s high-end thinking for low-frequency brilliance.

INTELLIGENT SPOT BRACING

Computer simulated design intelligently braces opposing cabinet walls using specific wood composites to create Diamond’s most effective reduction in cabinet resonance. So your favourite recordings shine in vibrant technicolour, not the colour of your speaker cabinets.

HEARING YOU LOUD & CLEAR

Voice coils are wound on high-power epoxy/glass fibre bobbins seen only in the most expensive loudspeaker models. The reduced distortion and increased power handling means you can go loud, real loud, and still enjoy incredible clarity.
