I was very surprised to see that the Wharfedale Diamond 9 series have made their way here already. Only a couple models were there, the Floorstanding 9.6s and a 9CS Centre. The new 9.6s were impressive units towering above every other speaker.
The Dual 8" drivers should give the system a deep bottom end. The one unusual trait is the Midrange driver, you would normally expect to see a small 4" cone (especially as they are producing the 9CC center with 4" drivers) to produce the midrange frequency. The 9.6 however has a 2" driver to produce midrange frequencies. It might lead to some light midrange but as they weren't hooked up the was no way of testing them just yet.
However priced at $1299 the Diamonds are starting to move out of the budget mold.
