Wharfedale Diamond 12.1 Bookshelf Speakers
In the early 1980s, Wharfedale created the blueprint for modern ‘budget’ hi-fi speakers when it made the first-ever Diamond. Over the last four decades the Wharfedale Diamond has become one of the most successful speaker ranges of all time. The latest Diamond 12 Series is the best DIAMOND range yet, developed in collaboration with Karl-Heinz Fink – one of the most successful loudspeaker designers on the planet.
The result is classic Wharfedale Diamond, offering exceptional value, 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.
The Diamond 12.1 is a compact, bookshelf (or standmount) speaker that offers the best of both worlds – compact size with power and detail.
Perfect for 2-channel Hi-Fi systems, thanks to its intricate performance but also compact and capable for immersive home theatre, the Diamond 12.1 is designed and certified to perform, regardless of room size and application.
New high-tech drivers
These speakers are a complete redesign from the previous generation. The 5-inch Klarity™ woofer is formulated from a blend of Polypropylene and mica, adding stiffness to reduce flexing, enabling a lightweight cone with high rigidity, low colouration and lightning-fast response. Combined with the 1-inch woven textile tweeter, the Diamond 12.1’s offer sound that's impressively accurate and smooth with impressive bass.
Multi Talented
The Diamond 12’s work well with a wide range of source equipment including all-in-one systems and price compatible separate components. With Wharfedale offering a range of models in the Diamond 12 line up the 12.1’s would also make excellent surround sound speakers in a multi-channel home cinema system.
