Wharfedale - Diamond 12.0 (White)
Brand: Wharfedale
Redesigned to Set New In-Class Performance Benchmarks: Wharfedale Diamond 12.0 Bookshelf Loudspeaker Plays with Insight and Energy, Features Four-Inch Klarity Drivers Wharfedale's Diamond 12.0 bookshelf loudspeaker cuts to the heart of music with a degree of precision, clarity, and magnitude unimaginable at its price point even two years ago. Akin to all of its Diamond 12 Series counterparts, the most compact model in the range is completely redesigned from the ground up to set new performance benchmarks in its class . Offering generous freedom of placement, the two-way bass-reflex speaker mines prized detail, tonality, texture, depth, and spaciousness from your recordings with thrilling insight and engaging energy. The hit parade begins with a four-inch bass driver comprised of trademarked Klarity cone material – formulated from a blend of polypropylene and mica to add stiffness while remaining lightweight for low coloration and fast responsiveness. Fitted with a low-damping surround and shaped to achieve a flat response curve, it also produces expressive dynamics even on complex material. Relatedly, Diamond 12.0 also touts a precision-crafted magnet system with an aluminum compensation ring to minimize the effect of variations in inductance as the voice coil travels, ultimately leading to an absence of distortion and intermodulation generated by the motor system. A voice coil wound on an epoxy/glass-fiber bobbin produces higher power handling than those assembled on aluminum machines – and claims a stiffness lacking on Kapton types normally found in this cost bracket. When it comes to the one-inch soft-dome tweeter , Diamond 12.0 shines. Comprised of woven polyester film with a high-loss coating for open, smoothly extended high frequencies, it boasts an optimized magnet system and flat front plate to attain wide dispersion and uncompressed playba
