Westcott Wharfedale Diamond 12.3 Floorstanding Speaker, Light Oak
An epitome of style and sophistication, the Diamond 12.3 Dual 5" 2.5-Way Tower Floor Standing Speaker in Light Oak is a testament to Wharfedale's commitment to high-quality audio equipment. This speaker, a part of the renowned DIAMOND series, continues the legacy of delivering exceptional sound quality at an affordable price point. The DIAMOND series, a stalwart in the audio industry for over 38 years, has consistently been recognized for its excellence and innovation. The latest addition, the DIAMOND 12 series, is no exception. Developed in collaboration with world-renowned loudspeaker designer Karl-Heinz Fink, this speaker combines a contemporary design with the distinctive Wharfedale aesthetic, setting a new benchmark in the budget audio equipment category.The Diamond 12.3 speaker features the new Klarity cone material, a blend of Polypropylene and mica, which adds stiffness and reduces flexing for a lightning-fast response. The cone is fitted with a low-damping surround, achieving low coloration and expressive dynamics. This balance of design and material choice results in a speaker that delivers a flat response curve without the need for a high-damping surround.The precision-made magnet system with an aluminum compensation ring minimizes the effect of variations in inductance as the voice coil travels, resulting in reduced distortion and intermodulation. The voice coil itself is wound on a high-power epoxy/glass fiber bobbin, a feature uncommon in speakers at this price level, delivering greater power handling and rigidity.The 25mm dome, made from a woven polyester film with a high-loss coating, delivers open and smoothly extended high frequencies. The magnet system and the front plate have been optimized for wide dispersion and uncompressed behavior, ensuring a superior sound experience.The speaker's crossover network uses an acoustic LKR 24dB topology, including air core inductors typically found in high-end speakers. This design choice results in fast, clean bass with no distortion from the inductor. The cabinet features Intelligent Spot Bracing, connecting opposite walls with a specific form of wood brace for optimal reduction of cabinet resonance.Finished in a choice of black, white, light oak, or walnut, the Diamond 12.3 Dual 5" 2.5-Way Tower Floor Standing Speaker is not just an audio device, but a statement piece that adds elegance to any space. Whether you're a music enthusiast or a casual listener, this speaker promises to enhance your audio experience.
