Since its creation in 1981, the Wharfedale’s Diamond has enjoyed a formidable
reputation within the field of two-channel stereo reproduction. Regarded by
journalists around the world as the real entry point to hi-fidelity sound
reproduction, this has been reinforced by numerous awards and commendations.
Each component is designed as part of a whole, without a single ‘off-the-shelf’
part. Every part interacts simply and effectively with the rest, to produce
a sound that is detailed, refined and supremely natural.
The new Diamond 9 is designed using the finest materials and technology
in its class Diamond 9, yet again, redefines the standard of reproduction
available. Whilst retaining many of the core features that made Diamond 8
successful, Diamond 9 introduces a raft of new features.
What HiFi? October 2004
"A bar-raising effort from Wharfedale: these are ridiculously good speakers
at this budget price level"
What HiFi? October 2004
"Thanks to their near-perfect driver integration, music sounds wonderfully
natural and transparent."
Curved braced cabinet
A strong, inert, curved and braced cabinet design to reduce cabinet vibration,
which reduces colouration, and encourages rapid dissipation of the ‘standing
waves’ created from rear cone movements reflecting inside the cabinet.
Gold-plated Terminal
Gold-plated contact areas and bridging strips allow firm connections, with
offset rear terminal posts for the widest possible choice of connection options.
Crossover
A simple crossover design can maintain phase coherency through the mid-range
and hence eliminate the negative effects that are introduced where driver
correction is needed.
Tweeters
The tweeters use high power 'rare-earth' magnets for high resolution and
accuracy. This provides the most linear and the fastest response possible.
Cast chassis
A special alloy, cast chassis design is incorporated across all diamond
models to virtually eliminate rear wave reflections from the chassis legs.
This allows air to move freely through the driver and have a more even frequency
response with much lower distortion.
Dome Midrange
The dome midrange unit on Diamond 9.6 and large centre channel results in
improved integration, greater drive-unit headroom, and improved dispersion.
Far better than 90 percent
of all other speakers on the market!!
