WHARFEDALE SPEAKERS
HI-FI CHOICE chose the top hi-fi of all time. Wharfedale Diamonds are the only budget speakers picked.

WHARFEDALE
 has made quality speakers for almost 80 years. They're exceptional values, outperforming 
speakers of many times their low cost. They have Kevlar or carbon fiber cones, die cast aluminum frames, phase plugs, silk dome tweeters & curved cabinets. Wharfedale makes every part themselves, including every woofer, midrange, tweeter, cabinet part & even crossover parts. Virtually no other speaker companies do this. 

Wharfedale has received PRODUCT OF THE YEAR” AWARDS, for bookshelfs, subs & floor-standing speakers. PERFECT VISION calls Wharfedale “Best of Show” & “costs half of what you’d expect”. Reviewers exclaim, “HI-FI BARGAIN of the YEAR, absolute steal; sensational; superb”. STEREOPHILE loved the $299/pr Diamond 9.1, "The dynamic articulation, & soundstage were what I'd expect from a $2000 speaker." 

Wharfedale Opus speakers all have real wood veneer, carbon fiber woofers & 3" silk dome midranges. The cabinets have a 1.3" thick front baffle & extensive bracing. The crossovers use large gauge, air core coil, braided wire & separate printed circuit boards for the woofers,apart from the upper range speakers.  

Wharfedale's best speakers, the $20,000 Airedale & classics, also use a 3" dome midrange. At the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, the STEREOPHILE called the Airedales,"Wonderful sounding; great highs, ear-opening depth & three dimensionality & excellent midrange. There wasn't a hint of strain; the sound was sensational enough to live for."

WHARFEDALE REVIEWS 

Diamond 9.0, 5 STARS, TOP-RATED over more expensive Dali,  KEF, PSB, Tannoy & more. "Incredibly small, yet remarkably capable."  WHAT HI-FI AWARDS 2008

Diamond 9.1
, $349 / pair. "Reviewer's dream. Dynamic articulation & soundstage I'd expect from a $2000 speaker; superb value; superb measured performance." In same class as $1800 speakers. STEREOPHILE 10/07
BEST BUY, LEAST EXPENSIVE AWARDED SPEAKER, "Superior shape & finish at an exceptionally sharp price." HI-FI CHOICE, awards 2008
"Best possible product at the lowest possible price. Blindingly fast & extremely clean, a remarkably able performer." HI-FI+ 10/07
Nominated Budget Component of Year, STEREOPHILE, 12/06
5 STARS, TOP-RATED
over more expensive 
Dali, KEF, PSB, Tannoy & more. WHAT HI-FI AWARDS 2008

Opus 2-2
, $2299-3499/ pair, depending upon finish. "The big payoff in design is the same upper drivers as the flagship AIredale at $20,000. Large 3" soft dome midranges are starting to appear more regularly in sizable floor standers, but I don't see too many in affordable speakers like the Opus 2-2. I enjoyed the buttery smooth midrange & lack of treble harshness. For Wharfedale this is a turn from the "blahs" & a big step towards the beautiful. This speaker should not be passed over by those wanting an economical, capable larger speaker with a small footprint." DAGOGO 11/09

WHARFEDALE SUBS
Diamond SW150, $449. BEST SUB under $600; 5 STARS, TOP-RATED, above more expensive Dynaudio, Tannoy, Velodyne & more. WHAT HI-FI, 8/08

Diamond SW250, $799.  5 STARS, TOP-RATED, above Dynaudio, Tannoy, Velodyne & more. WHAT HI-FI, 8/08
