## Description

In the early 1980s, Wharfedale created the blueprint for modern ‘budget’ hi-fi speakers when it made the first-ever Diamond. The launch of a new Diamond range is always a major hi-fi event, What Hi-Fi described Diamond as “one of the most successful speaker ranges of all time” (What Hi-Fi? 2015). It’s also one of the most enduring – the range in it’s various guises has been on the market for the past 38 years, updated from one generation to the next. The all-new Diamond 12 Series is the best range yet, developed in collaboration with Karl-Heinz Fink – one of the most successful loudspeaker designers on the planet. Classic Diamond price points, industrial design that’s cool and contemporary yet still distinctly Wharfedale, and sound that delivers a new ‘budget’ benchmark through exceptional acoustic design and engineering are all features of the new range. Wharfedale Diamond 12.1 is a conventional bookshelf speaker and true all-rounder that embodies the legacy of the Wharfedale Diamond series. The ‘affordable’ hi-fi speaker features a compact enclosure with power and detail. Ideal for 2-channel hi-fi systems, it is also suitable for immersive home theatre regardless of room size and application. With a high-performance 5” Klarity driver for excellent timing and finetuned bass, the 25mm woven polyester dome tweeter delivers open and smooth extended high frequencies.

Review: Wharfedale were great speakers when I was younger, so I decided to try these rather large 'bookshelf' speakers. They still impress in terms of quality but even more so in value compared to other speakers of this size in the market today. Good looks, good sound and good price.
Review: Great sound for a small speaker. Great value for money
