Topic: Wharfedale Diamond 9 Series

[lrdcly]

Denon AVR1508 is an entry level that complement well with Wharfedale. Wharfedale 9.5, 9cm and 9sr is just right, but if you want a more immerse surround, you may wish to avail dipole 9DFS. Dipole speakers take advantage of reflected sound to create a wider soundfield, and they provide greater speaker placement flexibility.

For further inquiry, visit Sights and Sounds 4th level Shangri-La Plaza. Or call 6341789 to 90, mobile 09175413491.

ayos kung ganon! swak na swak sa budget..hehe
thank you sir..

[natosan]

second the motion ako for 9dfs. tsaka minimal lang price difference vs 9sr...

I've auditioned it.  I don't like it.  There are other better sub out there but at a higher price.  But if you're on a very tight budget, pwede na sya.

ic.. kaya pala wala ako nakitang discussions regarding this. pero meron review nito sa cnet, ok naman ang labas ng review pero there is one problem, medyo kulang sa lakas nga daw..thanks

Mahina ang power, e.

OK lang siguro sa small room, paired with bookshelf fronts.  Mahina pag bigger rooms, and almost useless when paired with floorstanders such as the Diamond 9.5.

are these subs any good?

Well, depende kung ano ang criteria. 

Price is amazingly low.  They are realiable, use good materials, well-constructed and well-braced. 

Pero mahina ang tunog  .

ic, well i guess ganun talaga kasi nga mura lang sya kaya siguro mahina. yung SW-200 naman sobra mahal nasa 20k na yung price nya.

hey guys! have a question...I have a pair of 9.5s as fronts together with a 9CS center. Is it better to upgrade my center to a 9CM since it has the same woofer size as the 9.5s? Been contemplating on replacing the CS for the longest time but don't know if my setup would be better off with a CM.

TIA...

[lrdcly]

sir seph, planning to buy 9.5 din.. ano pong receiver gamit mo?

The CM would match with the 9.6 and not the 9.5 cause it has the extra mid range speaker as the 9.6.

[ASuL]

what do you mean by extra mid range speaker of 9.6?



tia

[ASuL]

would a yamaha 659 sufficient enough to power the 9.5s or an HK 245 would make these speakers sound better (mostly for HT use)

[natosan]

to mods, sorry kung medyo OT but eto kasi pinaka-active na wharfedale trade....

guys, comment naman kayo sa speakers na to...
http://pinoydvd.com/board/index.php?topic=84468.0

i've reserved it kasi until this saturday and would really appreciate if you anybody has owned/auditioned these speakers before. sulit na ba at 15T? compared to 9.5/9.6 which is better? may bago na actually evo2...

TIA!

[blued888]

tia

May midrange driver/cone yung 9.6 in addition to the tweeter plus dual 8" bass drivers. Whereas yung 9.5, tweeter plus dual 6.5" bass drivers lang.

According to Wharfedale website, they recommend 9cm with 9.5 and 9.6.  As to which one is better, I suggest you audition 9cm and compare with 9cs.  I've only heard 9cm paired up with 9.5 so can't give a good advice about 9cs and 9.5.  By the way, why do you want to upgrade ba?  Because of woofer size lang?  Don't mind the size, if to your ears, okay na yung 9cs with 9.5, 'wag na upgrade.. It will save you some money pa.  Only upgrade if you find something wrong with 9cs.

thanks for the suggestion bro milken...been a long time user of the CS/9.5 pair...nothing wrong with the combination. Just thought it would deliver better range, which is my concern. Now, mas okay ba DFS sa SR? hahahaha

sakin better ang 9cm coz ganyan setup ko  9.5/9cm, mas maganda ang vocals, mas clear/buo... if your using the auto setup of your avr mapapansin mo sa speaker volume (fronts & center) mas mahina ang volume ng 9cm coz its easier to drive (90db) than 9.5's (88db) btw i have yammy 659 and tried to balance it manually using sound level meter mas mahina talaga volume ng 9cm (-2db+/-) than 9.5's.

would a yamaha 659 sufficient enough to power the 9.5s or an HK 245 would make these speakers sound better (mostly for HT use)

Yup 659 has enough power to make your 9.5 sing!!

sir ok po ba ang 9.5 sa hk145 which is 40w lang? im planning to setup my first ht, will use hk145 and diamond 9.5 and us audio us510, 2.1 setup muna ok po ba 2.1 setup muna sa hk145? TIA.

[milken]

Pwede naman.  The specs of 9.5 say it can handle power between 30W to 150W.  But you'll not be tapping the full potential of 9.5 with such low powered receiver.  Nonetheless, 9.5 will sing with hk145.  Good luck!

thanks @milken, anong avr po kaya perfect match sa 9.5 na worth 20k? and ok po ba combination ng 9.5 and usaudio us510 sub para sa 2.1 setup?

Disclaimer:  I don't think there is such thing as a perfect match since audio is very subjective.  Some people may like a particular sound, some may not.  So it's best to shortlist AVRs then demo them with your speakers of choice.

A lot of Wharfedale users find Yamaha a good match for their speakers.  Some users are satisfied with HK+Wharfe combo.  Some AV stores recommend Marantz.  Check out nearby AV stores for model and pricing.  Better compare them yourself and share your experience here.

what about denon and wharfe combo? any feedbacks

[blackie]

Have been using this combo for about 2 years now. No complaints, and no plans to change

[mikevg08]

mga sir tanong ko lang po kung ok lang ba na ipair yung 9.CC sa 9.5, thanks po!

[lrdcly]

kaya na ba ng 1508 un 9.5?

[blackie]

Pretty sure it can.  Not too sure of specs of 1508

[milken]

kaya na ba ng 1508 un 9.5?

just check the power rating of denon 1508 at denon website. basta kailangan ng 9.5 is bet 30W (min.) to 150W (max) [from Wharfedale website]. If your AVR of choice could deliver at least 30W per channel, oks na yun.  The higher the power the better to maximize the potential of the speakers.
