The rear-ported enclosure in Diamond 12.2 is perfect sized so that the internal volume works in euphony with the drive unit system to deliver the desired sonic result. A multi-layered sandwich design subdues the identiï¬able characteristics of the cabinet’s ‘sound’. Even the resonant properties of the glue between the layers was measured to determine the optimum combination.
The crossover network works on an acoustic LKR 24dB topology. That gives air-core inductors of the type more commonly found in high-end speakers, because it produce the lowest distortion of all the inductor types. As the resistance of the coil is higher than a standard laminated steel or ferrite core inductor, the magnetic structure of the bass driver modiï¬ed to compensate, resulting in fast, clean bass with no distortion from the inductor.
A woven polyester ï¬lm is used in 25mm dome with a high-loss coating to deliver open and smoothly extended high frequencies. There has been optimisation of magnet system nd the front plate for wide dispersion and uncompressed behaviour. The front plate is flat and exposes the dome as much as possible; only a very short duct on the front plate balances the acoustic load and improves the SPL (sound pressure level) measurement.
The voice coil of 12.2 series of wharfdale is wrapped with a high-power epoxy/glass ï¬bre bobbin highly unusual in speakers at this price level. This has the advantage of not adding eddy currents and delivering greater power handling than an aluminium bobbin, whilst also being much stiffer than the Kapton type associated with this price-class.
Diamond series models allows two sets of high quality and 5-way binding post terminals for optional bi-wire connection. There are angled terminals allowing easier access and neater wire management. These connection gives you a smooth connectivity to pulg-in and home connection.
Diamond 12.2 cabinet walls engage with a multi-layered sandwich design to vanquish resonance. Inside the cabinet, highly equpied Spot Bracing connects opposite walls with a wooden brace to further reduce panel flexing and vibration. Those braces are precisely modeled by computer simulation to improve upon the commonplace ‘figure of eight’ brace, which may transfer resonance from one wall to another.
