What makes a good hi-fi loudspeaker?

Well although opinions vary, Peter Walker - the founder of our sister company Quad, summed it up very nicely when he said you should get out exactly what you put in. This formed Quad's philosophy which is '...the closest approach to the original sound'.

The perfect loudspeaker should be like being in the studio, or at the concert where the music was recorded. It needs detail, subtlety, accuracy, a good and wide frequency response - above everything, it needs to be realistic. The speakers in this section are all class leaders and give an incredibly realistic soundstage. What might surprise you though is their affordability!

Choosing Wharfedale speakers means you get the finest sound quality available at the price with the reassurance of a company that has been at the forefront of audio engineering for nearly 70 years.
Wharfedale DIAMOND 9
Since its creation in 1981, the Wharfedale?s Diamond has enjoyed a formidable reputation within the field of two-channel stereo reproduction. Regarded by journalists around the world as the real entry point to hi-fidelity sound reproduction, this has been reinforced by numerous awards and commendations.
Each component is designed as part of a whole, without a single ?off-the-shelf? part. Every part interacts simply and effectively with the rest, to produce a sound that is detailed, refined and supremely natural.
The new Diamond 9 is designed using the finest materials and technology in its class Diamond 9, yet again, redefines the standard of reproduction available. Whilst retaining many of the core features that made Diamond 8 successful, Diamond 9 introduces a raft of new features.
What HiFi? October 2004
"A bar-raising effort from Wharfedale: these are ridiculously good speakers at this budget price level"
What HiFi? October 2004
"Thanks to their near-perfect driver integration, music sounds wonderfully natural and transparent."
Curved braced cabinet
A strong, inert, curved and braced cabinet design to reduce cabinet vibration, which reduces colouration, and encourages rapid dissipation of the ?standing waves? created from rear cone movements reflecting inside the cabinet.
Gold-plated Terminal
Gold-plated contact areas and bridging strips allow firm connections, with offset rear terminal posts for the widest possible choice of connection options.
Crossover
A simple crossover design can maintain phase coherency through the mid-range and hence eliminate the negative effects that are introduced where driver correction is needed.
Tweeters
The tweeters use high power 'rare-earth' magnets for high resolution and accuracy. This provides the most linear and the fastest response possible response
Cast chassis
A special alloy, cast chassis design is incorporated across all diamond models to virtually eliminate rear wave reflections from the chassis legs. This allows air to move freely through the driver and have a more even frequency response with much lower distortion.
Dome Midrange
The dome midrange unit on Diamond 9.6 and large centre channel results in improved integration, greater drive-unit headroom, and improved dispersion.
