The Diamond 10.CM is a center channel speaker from Wharfedale's Diamond 10 series, featuring a true three-way design with four drivers: two 165mm Kevlar bass drivers, a 50mm dome midrange driver, and a 25mm soft dome tweeter. It has a curved cabinet with strengthened walls and internal bracing to reduce resonance and standing waves. The front baffle uses a composite panel with a piano-black finish to reduce vibration and provide a stable platform for the drivers. The bass drivers have a diamond pattern molded into the surround to reduce standing waves and improve acoustic roll-off, enhancing cohesion between the mid/bass unit and tweeter. Rear-firing twin reflex ports extend bass response below 45Hz and reduce audible distortion. The speaker is magnetically shielded and has gold-plated terminals allowing for firm connections and bi-wiring. It is suitable for amplifiers from 30 to 200 watts, has a nominal impedance of 6 ohms, sensitivity of 90dB, and a frequency range of 55Hz to 24kHz with crossover frequencies at 1kHz and 6kHz. Dimensions are approximately 223mm (H) x 535mm (W) x 295mm (D), with a height on feet/spikes of 231mm. The speaker weighs about 30 lbs and carries a 5-year warranty. It is designed to deliver clear dialog and presence in home theater setups, with a refined aesthetic featuring a high-gloss black baffle and optional grille covers.
