Product Description

 
Every manufacturer will tell you their speakers are the best and try to justify it with impressive endorsements from reviewers or dealers. Often such endorsements are short-lived, and such is the speed the industry evolves, the product in question is merely flavour of the month. Strange then that this range, the Diamond 8, has a heritage extending over twenty years and has been Britain’s bestselling loudspeaker series over this period. Even stranger perhaps when a company that has experienced such commercial and critical success in the past can continue to deliver the goods year after year – to remain at the very forefront of acoustic technology and strive to make each generation of the Diamond a revolution in loudspeaker design. Even so, it has not been since the very first Diamond in 1981 that a single speaker range has caused such a stir. Once more, the Wharfedale Diamond series sits proudly atop a fine tradition of excellence.

Great value

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2004
The Bottom Line: Based on price alone: a home run. If you can spend more, you'll find better.
Review: I had read many things about these speakers, most positive and some negative, so I was very interested when I found them for sale on an auction site for less than $100/pair (factory refurbished). I wasn't able to find any store locally to hear them...

Wharfedale Diamond 8.1 Pro (active) Pair
The Diamond 8 series is the result of over three years intensive research and development into virtually every aspect of acoustic design. Firstly, the tweeter in all models is a 25mm textile dome, ferrofluid cooled unit powered with an ultra-strong neodymium magnet for the fastest, most accurate response International Audio Group has ever achieved. Next, the woofer cone is made from a bi-directional KEVLAR weave - self-damping in nature, reducing resonant frequencies to virtually negligible levels. The impetus for rapid movement here, is a dual layer, vented voice coil which transmits the signal information with the highest levels of accuracy. The cone is mounted on a nitrile rubber "Flexaural surround rim". A profiled phase plug improves the off-axis performance to project an excellent stereo image across a wide listening area.
