fogee!!!   ;D



  • The front baffle features a composite panel structure with piano black finish which not only makes it look swish but also improves sound quality by reducing the effects of vibration
  • The mid/bass drive unit has been enhanced with a massive flange to improve stability while a diamond pattern has been moulded into the surround of the Kevlar cone to dampen standing waves and create a cleaner high-frequency roll-off
  • The original twin reflex ports have been moved to the rear of the cabinet to reduce audible distortion while extending the bass to below 45Hz for an ‘impressive sense of sonic scale’
  • A metal diffusion grid has also been added over the soft-dome tweeter as protection and to iron out high-frequency perturbations up to the 30kHz point for smoother treble
  • Available in black, rosewood, cherry and walnut

something that i have been waiting long also, a speaker config. like the Diamond 10.5:



there's the 6.5 woofer for the low-end... and a smaller driver for a cleaner midrange.
i should think that this would be more musical though rather than more "cinematic".   :D
is it obvious i'm excited for this? i think i will hold out any avr or speaker upgrade for the moment.

going over the other models:

  • diamond 10.1...... 86db singe 5", bookshelf (replaces 9.1)
  • diamond 10.2...... 86db single 6.5", bookshelf (replaces 9.2)
  • diamond 10.3...... 86db single 5", tower (new, d9.3 is 8")
  • diamond 10.4...... 88db dual 5.25", tower (new, d9.5 is dual 6.5")
  • diamond 10.5...... 86db single 6.5"+2" mid, tower (new, d9.5 is dual 6.5")
  • diamond 10.6...... 88db dual 6.5", tower (replaces 9.5)
  • diamond 10.7...... 90db dual 6.5"+2" mid, tower (new, d9.6 is dual 8")

Yep I cant wait for this, I plan to upgrade to this 10.1 as well. Pogi na kasi at may contrast na sa cabinet with the brushed metal flange (or ring ba yan?) of the speakers compared sa dull dark gray with the 9.1.

Yep mukang na sars na nga ako. At least with the 10.1 series you can remove the grille covers showing the kapogian inside. Sa 9, for me they look better with the covers on!

Sana mura lang pag labas para makabili agad :)

thing is, baka matagalan pa bago makarating ito dito. so baka di mo na rin mahihintay. upgrade na lang tayo when these come out.

one website is even promising a first look/preview i think september pa.

First consumer review, discussion on the new diamonds that I've read
http://www.hifivision.com/speakers/4113-wharfedale-10-series-being-launched.html


you can also visit the website
http://www.wharfedale.co.uk/home.php


from the reviews of the about site, i presume they made big improvement on the mid/bass driver to be commented of being bright, open.
well let's wait and see.... :)
