Where did you buy it?

Does the tweeter has grill to protect it?

Do you think it is good enought as real speakers?

bought it at pertama audio Alor Setar...

no grill to cover the tweeter...

for the price i paid I'd say its a decent bookshelf

worth every penny i spend

I've heard the NAD T748 but not with wharfedale speaker. Demo it with Dali speakers, zensor and lektor series for music, but i dont really like the sound. Feels like not much power to drive them, not enough dynamic. I'm not sure why, maybe due to playing the audio cd via bd player. I dont think the T748 can't drive them, just trying the small bokkshelf only. But the full home-theatre setup is superb though.

Ok, enough with that, finally i'm proud to be in this Wharfedale family, just bought Wharfedale 10.2 with 10 cs centre speaker for pairing with Yamaha rx-a810 receiver. I'm able to compare with the new diamond 100 series, the Wharfedale 122 which the smaller version (Wharfedale 121) has 5 star rating from whathifi. Comparing 10.2 with 122, 122 has more solid bass but lesser treble. I picked the 10.2 because i like the design and look. Overall, i like the sound, more on the bright side as most say yamaha receiver is bright, but more than good for starter like me to start a home theatre setup.  smile.gif
Comparing music listening with my previous powered speaker audioengine A5, of course this new setup is much cleaner sounding, more detail and crispy high. Bass is just good, solid but audioengine a5 has punchier and big bass which may muffled the overall sound.  cool.gif

Never had a chance to demo any diamond 9 series..price is about the same for new 10.5..is it better?

I still think diamond 9.1 is better than 10.1...its just my own preferences...unfortunately sold my 9.1 to make way for another set of speaker. but if i encounter any cheap diamond 9.1 i surely will buy it again to make a stereo setup.

I'm still hunting for a proper stereo setup..Now will just enjoying music via my current av receiver with wharfedale 10.2.. Not sure wanna keep the 10.2 as front speaker or adding in floorstander and let the 10.2 be the rear speaker.. sweat.gif

hehe, i got luck this week. able to get a pair of tip-top condition 9.1 back!  tongue.gif

finally i'm able to compare the sound side by side, for music i like the 9.1, for movie 10.1 a tad better.

conclusion: i like 9.1 more. 10.1 will be better if room treatment is done (mostly bass problem).

For how much did U get it might I ask...

Saw someone selling 2nd hand for RM650 in h4s

Sorry for the bump. I auditioned the 10.2 with Marantz 5007 at Desa and i really liked it. Was quoted 1,100 and 2,299 for speakers and amp.

I did not try the 122 and was curious wat would be the price ? Anyone can share on the difference in terms of sound?

If you like it, buy it..wharfedale is good when it comes to performane/price ratio...former wharfdale owner
