Wharfedale Diamond A1 True Wireless Bookshelf Speakers with Hub
Wharfedale Diamond Active Bookshelf Speakers...
Utilising an uncompressed wireless connection between the speakers and the Wharfedale Hub, and doing all the conversion with a 24 bit DAC, the sound capability of these is beyond that of many Bluetooth only speakers.
The Diamond Active Series from Wharfedale, Britain’s best-known loudspeaker brand, delivers wireless connectivity with a difference. Whilst not the first stereo speakers to offer integrated amplification and Bluetooth connectivity with compatible devices including smartphones, tablets and computers, our clever ‘true wireless’ technology ensures greater flexibility than many such designs
A thrilling listening experience with zero hassle Wharfedale Diamond Active Series couple innovative, convenient wireless technology with an award-winning loudspeaker formula for tremendous bass delivery and scintillating high frequencies. There is no need for bulky amplifers and trailing wires anymore. Two packages are available - The Diamond A1 (2 x bookshelf speakers) and the Diamond A2 (2 x foorstanding speakers). Each system is linked together wirelessly, via the included Diamond H1 Hub, which acts as the central console for all your music sources, including analogue, digital and Bluetooth aptX connections - Everything the modern music lover needs. The speakers are Individually powered by the latest in digital amplifcation - a room-flling 100W per system. Combined with Wharfedale’s proprietary Woven-Kevlar bass driver and textile softdome tweeter as seen in the multi-award winning Diamond 200 series the result is a jaw-dropping sound, usually associated with more complicated audio setups.
Although convenience was a key goal of Wharfedale engineers, by no means has any technology been watered-down as a result. Within each loudspeaker is a high powered 50W class D amplifer. The ability to drive each speaker individually guarantees the highest power possible, with astounding detail and accuracy. it’s performance will blow you away. Inferior active systems often contain the inputs, controls and amplifcation housed within one speaker, leaving a trailing wire connecting to another passive speaker. Not only does this create unwanted cabling, this also results in compromised power, with inconsistencies in-between left and right channels. The amplifer units within each Diamond Active speaker are combined with an intelligent DSP unit and crossover system ensuring the amplifer and drivers are working in perfect harmony. Optimised frequencies are distributed in-between the tweeter and woofer, while the DSP adds speaker protection and a fne-tuned EQ subject to CAD analysis and hours of listening tests by experienced Wharfedale engineers.
