Still compact but with increased cabinet volume and driver size for even greater power, the Wharfedale Diamond 12.2 offers a little more than a traditional bookshelf (or stand) speaker format and embodies the historical and performance values of the Wharfedale series. Diamond. Perfect for larger rooms and more powerful 2-channel hi-fi systems, the Diamond 12.2 features a high-performance 150mm Klarity driver for long, tight bass, and a superb 25mm woven polyester dome tweeter for high frequencies open and extended smoothly.
It also incorporates a Precision magnet system with an aluminum compensation ring to minimize the effect of variations in inductance as the voice coil travels. This contributes to the absence of distortion and intermodulation generated by the "motor system". The voice coil is wound on a high power fiberglass/epoxy coil very unusual in speakers at this price level. This has the advantage of not adding eddy currents and offering greater power handling than an aluminum coil, while also being much stiffer than the Kapton type associated with this price class.
