About this deal

What’s more, the speakers are able to handle high volumes without any distortion or muddiness. The bass response is tight and punchy, and the treble is crisp and clear without being overly bright. Upon my first listen, I was very impressed at how balanced and composed the Diamond 12.2 were for the price. The only other speaker in this price range that comes close (to me) is the Triangle Borea BR03, which I don’t remember being as revealing or transparent. Wharfedale follows standard industry practice by using the same tweeter throughout the Diamond 12 range. It’s a 25mm coated woven polyester soft dome, and a good one it is too. A carefully shaped faceplate leaves as much of the dome exposed as possible, and the contouring closest to the dome is there to provide a small degree of horn loading. As we move from Jay Z’s Blueprint 3 to Kate Bush’s Hounds Of Love, we appreciate the 12.3’s articulate and expressive midrange and the seamless integration between the drive units. We like how Wharfedale has avoided excess; there’s enough bass weight to satisfy but not so much that it spoils the balance of the presentation. The lows are agile, satisfyingly rich and textured with it.

Still compact but with increased cabinet volume and driver size for even more potency, the Wharfedale DIAMOND 12.2 offers a little more from a traditional standmount (or bookshelf) speaker format and embodies the history and performance values of the Wharfedale DIAMOND series. In the vast majority of cases we will not be able to install the cabinet doors to built-in laundry products as the fittings very rarely match up. We will try our best however if we are unable to do this we will still install connect to plumbing and put the appliance in situ. Perfect for larger rooms and more powerful 2-channel hi-fi systems, the DIAMOND 12. features a high-performance 150mm (6.5”) KlarityTM driver for extended, tight bass, and a superb 25mm (1”) woven polyester dome tweeter for open and smoothly extended high frequencies. Ideal for larger rooms and more powerful stereo hi-fi systems, the 12.2 features a high-performance 6.5” Klarity driver for extended, tight bass and 1” woven polyester dome tweeter for smooth and open highs. Lightweight Klarity Cone Innovative, High-performance, Whole Home Audio Solution, the Wharfedale Diamond 12.2 Bookshelf Speakers is for Music Lovers Of All Levels!The Klarity™ cone is fitted with a low-damping surround, thereby achieving both low colouration and expressive dynamics. By simulating many different cone shapes and adding ribs to provide further stiffening, a flat response curve was achieved without resorting to a high-damping surround, thereby striking the ideal balance. A magnet of forces Speaker Stands: Stands bring your bookshelf speakers to ideal height (rule of thumb is to have the tweeter level with your ear in your listening position), helps stability and acoustical isolation. The sound coil is wound on a high-performance epoxy / fiberglass spool, which is extremely unusual for speakers in this price range.

As with all DIAMOND 12 models, the DIAMOND 12 3D uses the famed KlarityTM polypropylene cones that renowned for their characteristically low distortion and controlled ‘breakup’. Low colour and expressionelectronics also avoiding unwanted brightness. With a rather hotter recording like Dreams Come Trueby Brandon Flowers, the Wharfedale stays civilised until you really push it, by which point your listening levels will be firmly antisocial anyway. Car Parts and Accessories, Bike Parts and Accessories, Helmets and other Protective Gear, Vehicle Electronics 30 Days Returnable Combined with a carefully calibrated, relatively sophisticated crossover, the result is a speaker with a sensitivity of 89dB/W/m and a nominal impedance that’s quoted as being 8ohm compatible. The crossover network uses an acoustic LKR 24dB topology. This includes air-core inductors of the type more commonly found in high-end speakers, selected because they produce the lowest distortion of all inductor types. As the resistance of the coil is higher than a standard laminated steel or ferrite core inductor, the magnetic structure of the mid/bass driver has been modified to compensate, resulting in fast, clean bass with no distortion from the inductor. Firm and fair

Prices valid in stores (all including VAT) until close of business on 27th November 2023. (Some of these web prices are cheaper than in-store, so please mention that you've seen these offers online.)Those speakers will be placed in ~12 square meter room (from couch to speakers there would be ~ 2.5 meters), so the room itself is quite small, and don't plan to listen to them very loud in general as I don't want my neighbors to hate me. As the first version potentially I'm going to listen to them using my iPad directly connected and then at some point in time plan to buy some streamer so that would have spotify/tidal connection options as well as airplay. And also thinking about Rega vinyl turntable in the future as well. Diamond 12.2 by Wharfedale enhances the atmosphere of pretty much any room. It teams superbly with the majority of equipment in any office. Presented here is a bookshelf speaker. But, it isn't mandatory to house it on the shelf, any level counter top is perfect. Bookshelf speakers deliver crystal clear, sharp audio. In many rooms, they improve how the sound is delivered too. They need a bit less space than taller speakers but should be deliberately placed (such as at the same level as your ears) for the best results. Fantastic Quality and Sturdy Design
