Full Description
“One of the greatest budget loudspeakers ever, the 9.1s deliver a quality-laden performance…the 9.1s also look and feel like far more expensive speakers. Forget the bog-standard box design commonly used for budget boxes – these elegant standmounts boast curved, braced cabinets, cranking aesthetic appeal up a notch, and also helping reduce unwanted cabinet vibrations and dissipate any standing waves produced by the mid/bass driver.”

Despite immense competition from huge speaker brands, these Wharefdale speakers have consistently scored high in budget categories and remain excellent value for money.

Great Drivers
The Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 bookshelf speakers are harnessed with five-inch (130mm) Kevlar bass/midrange cones that express dynamic, low frequencies. The one-inch (25mm) textile tweeter also gives the sound a noticeable boost in quality and generates sharp, high frequencies.
Solid Cabinets
Diamond 9.1 bookshelf speakers use curved, braced cabinets that offer low internal resonance, establishing a totally immersive audio experience. The cabinet’s design also ensures flexible positioning so you can place the speakers almost anywhere in your home.
Stunning Speaker Grilles
These bookshelf speakers also come with speaker grilles that will safely shield the drivers and cabinet ports from potential damage, dirt and debris without greatly diminishing listening quality. This is the perfect choice for homes with children or pets and for those who like a streamlined finish to their HiFi system.
