Modern Finishes with Premium Build Quality
The DIAMOND 12.4i benefits from Wharfedale’s renowned attention to craftsmanship. New high-end finishes provide a sophisticated, contemporary look that pairs beautifully with the speaker’s musical, engaging performance.
Refined Bass Port Tuning & Internal Damping
Wharfedale engineers revisited the internal design of the 12.4i, focusing on airflow, port geometry, and cabinet damping. The result is tighter, cleaner bass with improved low-frequency articulation and seamless integration into real-world rooms.
Klarity™ Cone Technology
The mid/bass drivers use Wharfedale’s proprietary Klarity™ cones—a polypropylene/mica blend delivering outstanding stiffness, low distortion, and natural transient response. A low-damping surround and optimised cone geometry ensure a smooth, linear response.
Advanced Driver Magnet Systems
An aluminium compensation ring in the motor assembly reduces inductance variation for lower distortion and clearer midrange. A high-power epoxy/glass fibre bobbin provides exceptional power handling and long-term stability.
25mm Textile Dome Tweeter
The lightweight, high-damped polyester dome tweeter delivers refined, extended treble with excellent dispersion. The minimal-waveguide front plate ensures a natural, open high-frequency response on and off axis.
Premium Crossover with Air-Core Inductors
Using a precision-engineered Linkwitz-Riley network, the DIAMOND 12.4i employs high-grade components typically found in far more expensive loudspeakers. The revised bass/mid magnet design preserves speed and clarity while accommodating the high-quality inductors.
Low-Resonance Cabinet with Strategic Bracing
A multi-layer composite cabinet structure minimises panel resonance, while computer-modelled spot bracing reduces internal vibration without transferring energy between walls. This results in a more controlled, authoritative sound signature.
Preserving the Essence, Enhancing the Experience
The DIAMOND 12.4i looks, feels, and performs like a brand-new loudspeaker—but retains the character, neutrality, and musicality that made the original DIAMOND 12 Series such a hit with listeners worldwide.
