“Diamond Active Series stereo speakers combine Wharfedale’s award-winning acoustic design with ‘true wireless’ freedom for modern digital lifestyles”
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. This, combined with award-winning sonic know-how, delivers levels of convenience and performance that separate the Diamond Active Series from the rest of the wireless speaker crowd.
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 amplifiers and trailing wires anymore.
Two packages are available – The Diamond A1 (2 x bookshelf speakers) and the Diamond A2 (2 x floorstanding 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 amplification – a room-filling 100W per system. Combined with Wharfedale’s proprietary Woven-Kevlar bass driver and textile soft-dome 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.
Access all your audio sources effortlessly, with Wharfedale’s innovative, true wireless system
Unlike other wireless and active speakers where controls and inputs are often placed awkwardly on the back panel, Wharfedale engineers have developed a unique hub, which works as the central console for your music.
The Diamond H1 Hub features Optical, Coaxial and RCA inputs on the rear panel with an additional Bluetooth aptX connection for wireless integration of laptops, smartphones and tablet devices. It’s controlled gracefully via the touch-sensitive display, or for even more convenience you can use the included remote. Once connected to your source, the Diamond H1 Hub works independently from the speakers using the 5.8GHz wireless frequency band.
