Hey randy, just today i ordered a pair of elac unifi 2.0 uf52 tower speakers for an amazing price of 600€, what do you think about them if you ever even heard them?

[@DVDFHardTarget]

Could I use the Wharfedale Diamond 12.4 as front speakers for an AV 5.1 system or would they not really be suitable?

[@rickbrookes9491]

Recently got the Q-Acoustics 3050… can’t get over how amazingly clear those speakers are. Just watched Superman:The Movie in two channels and the dialog was crystal clear, the sound almost wrapped around me… it is impressive.

And the 3050i updated version is now under $1000.

[@st.thomas5802]

As a fellow speaker nerd we are very fortunate to have so many great options under $500 and $1000 these days. Towers this good didnt exist at this price 10-20 years ago. Now I enjoy having and trying out different speakers though my wife hates it. This year I finally picked up some Martin Logan elecrostats used for my downstairs theater and then a pair of Heco Auroras for the living room. Ive got Monitor Bronze 100s in the bedroom and Kali LP6 monitors in the studio. And a pair of Jamo C95 and Wharfedales im still trying to figure out what to do with. They all bring something different to the table and have enioyed all of them.

[@dravago17]

I got the diamond 12.4 and I decided to try bi amping since they have it as a feature. Idk if the bridges were originally sitting weird but it definitely improved the clarity and stopped any popping it was doing before I tried the bi amping. They have solid bass too

[@Corwin74]

Been trying to decide between the RP-6000F or the Emotiva T1+ since they're both on sale this week. Ended up with the T1+ due to your review of them a couple of years ago. Can't wait to get them in!

[@carolineleonard8214]

I tell all hifi beginners about the Wharfedale 12 series, in particular the 12.2 and 12.4s. They are that good imho, as I say that if you don’t take a l9ng hifi journey, these can be brought and you can happy for many years. Especially with the Marantz pm6007 and cd6007, add streaming (from phone or otherwise) or a TT and you have great listenable quality for not very much moolah (in audio and engineering terms). If i cannever get away from my study being where my highly used Hifi goes to die, then I'm whatever iteration of these is out there. A great review Mr R. Thanks.

I think that's what I'm going for. Reviews are all positive. My room is too small for the R700's. After talking with several people who know much more than I do about hi-fi, they all agree that I'd never realize the full potential of the R700 in the room dimensions I have.

[@ratingsdad]

Thanks for this review and I love how you compare products versus other products. It gives us a better baseline to measure against. I’ve seriously considered the Emotiva and Klipsch in the past as I like a brighter sounding speaker. However, I stumbled on a great deal for Klipsch Heresy speakers and compared those against my reference Heco Celan Revolution 3 speakers. The Heco are $1150 on Audioadvice, but I think they would likely best all of these for just a little more money. They crushed the Klipsch Heresy in my setup and I tried them for months with many combinations of amps and preamps.

[@shreddherring]

If you dont like the "scoop" on wharfedale speakers, or just want a cheap and easy upgrade, replace the included brass bridge plates between the two sets of binding posts with any speaker wire. Even a short length of the cheapest bit of basic, stranded copper wire you have laying around will be an improvement, so you dont necessarily need to go crazy pricewise just to try it out

[@kaneserver]

[@dan-qe1tb]

I have the Diamond 12.4s and yes their current sale price is a very good deal. Spacious EVO line is also on sale, but not Aura. I do prefer Wharfedales over the brash Klipsch house sound at their price point, but not as my main pair. I have more expensive US speakers as well that are more lively and more resolving and project images in front of the speaker; this is the classic live US speaker sound. With some recordings, however, the bigger pair murders my ears and I feel everybody is shouting at me. Wharfedales have a flatter but wide soundstage. Locked in center image is very good and outperforms the more expensive pair Timbre very natural and better than some aluminum woofers. Wharfedales under $2000: good at making you pay more attention to the song and less to the recording. Agree with the Geshelli JNOG2 deep soundstage comment I wish I could have kept that one I had to return it. Looking for another AKM DAC.

I love the wharfdale diamond 12.3s - I bet the 12.4s are great!

[@davidjudd951]

What do you like about them? I've been considering the 12.4's. I've heard that the feet are fragile.

[@mw1262]

@davidjudd951 I used the cone feet (it's a solid metal bracket, I never once was worried about them being fragile). Perhaps the pad option is, I don't know. As far as likes - mainly the smooth mid range. Its smooth and quite natural sounding. I find they image and stage nicely as well. I'm treble sensitive, and these don't fatigue me. I had them in a 2.1 system, and they rock. I will say the bass left a bit desired when I tested them without a sub. But in 2.1 the 12.3 was perfect for what I wanted. The 12.4 likely will fill the need for a sub a bit more where it's got a larger woofer. I had tried many other (mainly headphones) and some speakers - wharfdale diamonds was closest to my preferred sound signature. They were the first speaker I could sit back and enjoy rather than wondering if X sounded better. I went through about 20K worth of headphones before landing on those.

[@ENGBriseB]

I've heard the 12.3 sounds a bit better than the the 12.4 especially if you're room is smaller.

[@EsotericArctos]

If budget allows, how do you feel about the Evo 4.4 vs the Diamond 12.4's? I tend to agree with the review of the Klipsch. I find that horn tweeter can sometimes make Klipsch sound a bit "shouty" at higher volumes, and I have found them a little fatiguing.

I totally didnt need to but i bought an ex demo pair of Wharfedale Diamond 12.3 just because they were as new and offered at a measly sum of £290 (aka $375). Value for money is off the charts. By far the best speaker ive heard in terms of smiles per pound if not the best ive ever heard or owned (or own). Easy to drive... check. Easy to place... check. No frequency nasties... check. Amazing bass for the size... check. On the end of my Icon Audio Stereo 845PP they SING. Its one of those rare synergies ive found where a cheap speaker can end up sounding better than one 10x its price. You can tell the work that has gone into the cabinet and drivers by the designers (inc Fink i believe) and its payed off royally. I havent heard the Emotiva but ive heard the Klipsch and im sorry but..... (VOMITS). If YOU find a pair of 12.3 at retail id heartily recommend them but at almost half id just BUY and see if they do for you what they do for me!

A lot of claimed 8 ohms speakers drop down to nearer 4 ohms if you run them as large or without a sub. I have 7 Monitor Audio as my bed layer, (A Gold C350 centre I got for £500 on Ebay, two Bronze 500's and four Bronze 100's for surround and rear surrounds) they claim 8 ohms, but can drop to about 4.2 ohms. I have Emotiva BasX A3 and A4 amps powering them, and let my Denon 6700h power the 6 B&W M-1 heights. I also have two SVS PB1000 subs, which is more than enough immersion and bass for my room.

[@st.thomas5802]

That's what I ended up with and so far no regrets! I seriously considered all the speakers mentioned here plus the Klipsch rp8000f gen 1. The Wharfedale Diamond 12.4 and Emotivas were the strongest contenders to the Hecos but decided to pass on the Emotivas bc of their limited height dispersion and possible brightness of the AMT tweeters. I have demod Adam Audio T5/T7v and certain high frequencies just stood out in a way I didn't like so I'm not sure AMTs are for me. I still might order a pair of T-zeros to hear what they sound like and no question that's a phenomenal price even for budget towers. I have had the Diamond 12.1 for about 8 years now and always enjoyed it for its warm mids and smooth, non-fatiguing highs. Paired with a subwoofer and they are impressive for music especially. I still might try a pair of 12.4 as they're priced so well at the moment but I've watched some reviews saying the treble can be a little peaky, even slightly distorted which I found surprising considering Wharfedales tradition of warmth and rolled off highs. They are also beautiful looking speakers for the money. My instincts just told me the Heco 700 would outperform them for the same money but the only way to know for sure is order a pair and try them. Unfortunately this probably won't happen as my wife is going to kill me if I add 1 more pair of speakers to this house! 😂

[@editorjuno]

The best speaker under $1K is a studio monitor, The Kali Audio IN-8. MSRP is $800/pair and you don't need an amp -- you can drive it directly with any (XLR or RCA) line level-device with a volume control, e.g. a DAC or preamp -- because they have three channels of top-notch amplification and DSP built-in. The only drawback (for some of us) is cosmetic -- many a spouse will veto their plain matte black, no-grille appearance -- and the fact that they're designed for near and mid field use, making them unsuitable for larger listening spaces.

[@st.thomas5802]

You are correct, though from what ive read the Kali LP6 is almost its equal in both measurements and performance some people even preferring it. Either way both lines are probably 2 of the best you can buy under 500 and 1000. That said, I still just bought a pair of Heco aurora 700s for my living room. Wife liked the looks of my Kali LP6s also being white with black woofers but I always liked a good tower so picked these up. They sound excellent even with a cheap Onkyo receiver. Lots of low end and pretty neutral otherwise. No complaints! But if neutrality, extension, bass and clarity is most important its almost impossible to beat the Kalis especially considering the built in amplification and dsp. Only issue is it becomes expensive to create a home theater or even 3.1 with them as they require expensive electronics with preamps. For stereo or 2.1 though they are phenomenal choices.

[@editorjuno]

@@st.thomas5802 -- Yeah, I created my 7.1 system with the IN-8s as the main L+R speakers and an IN-5 for the center channel, with a modest 12" SVS sub, and four passive speakers (driven by two Aiyima A07s and a Dayton DSP-408) for the surround/ambience channels. Active speakers in the far corners of a listening space can be a PITA when you want to control AC to the entire system from a power strip and the surround/ambience role is relatively undemanding, so that "hybrid" setup has worked out very nicely here.
