Source: wharfedale.co.uk (verified 2026-07-11) · corroborated by wharfedaleusa.com. The manufacturer page (wharfedale.co.uk) confirmed model identity as the "Diamond 12.2" — a 2-way, rear-ported (bass-reflex) standmount with a 6.5"(150mm) Klarity woofer, 25mm woven-polyester dome tweeter, 8Ω-compatible impedance, 2.0kHz crossover and 50Hz-20kHz (+/-3dB) response; it showed only a £0.00 GBP placeholder, no USD price. The WharfedaleUSA distributor store confirmed the same model and supplied the US price ($549.00 per pair, "[Last Call]", $649.00 compare-at), imperial dimensions 13" x 7.87" x 12.3" (HxWxD) and 18 lb net weight; Amazon (Model Number "Diamond 12.2", UPC 840117503830) corroborated the dimensions, 8Ω impedance and 50Hz-20kHz response but was unpriced ("Currently unavailable"). Sensitivity conflicts across sources — 88dB on the manufacturer's global site but 86.5dB on both WharfedaleUSA and Amazon — so the US-corroborated 86.5dB is used. The tweeter is a woven-polyester soft dome, which matches no enum value (silk-dome/aluminum-dome/amt/ribbon/concentric), so tweeterType is left null; amplifierPowerW is null because the speaker is passive.
