Seller's Description

Der Center war 8 Jahre sicher im TV Schrank im Karton eingemottet. Danach war er 3 Jahre gelegentlich im Einsatz. Insgesamt kommt er aber auf weniger als 100 Betriebsstunden.

Optisch und technisch ist der Center in einem Sehr guten Zustand. Bedenkt man wie lange die Diamond 10 Serie nicht mehr hergestellt wird, dann dürfte es kaum 10.CM in besserem Zustand geben.

Bei Interesse einfach melden. :)

Our Thoughts RADAR AI

The Diamond 10.CM is a substantial, genuinely three-way centre rather than a token matching speaker. At €250, though, it looks ambitious for the used market: comparable Diamond-series listings commonly sit around €90–€200, making this asking price above the sensible range unless the condition is exceptional or the speaker is unusually scarce.

There is plenty to like if you are building around Diamond 10 towers. Its dual 165 mm Kevlar woofers, dedicated 50 mm midrange and soft-dome tweeter give dialogue real weight and clarity, while the sealed cabinet and 90 dB sensitivity make it an easy partner for ordinary AV receivers. It is also well suited to music, not just films, and the curved, braced cabinet is a worthwhile design. At €250, insist on immaculate drivers, grille and finish, with original feet or packaging; otherwise, a deal closer to €150–€200 would be more convincing.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About Wharfedale

Wharfedale traces its roots to 1932, when Gilbert Briggs, a music enthusiast and audio pioneer, crafted his first loudspeaker in the cellar of his home in Ilkley, Yorkshire, England. Named after the scenic Wharfedale valley along the River Wharfe, the company quickly gained traction among radio enthusiasts, winning early competitions and expanding to a factory near Bradford by 1933. Sold to the Rank Organisation in 1958, with Briggs managing until 1965, Wharfedale evolved from wartime subcontracting to postwar dominance in high-fidelity audio, blending British engineering heritage with relentless innovation.

The brand remains synonymous with loudspeakers, pioneering designs like the roll surround cone in the late 1950s, ceramic magnets in 1962, and the acoustic suspension system in the 1960s for deeper bass in compact cabinets. Iconic models such as the Linton, Denton, and enduring Diamond series—launched in 1981—define its core. While it briefly ventured into amplifiers, receivers, turntables, tuners, and even televisions or DVD players until 2008, Wharfedale now focuses exclusively on audio equipment under the International Audio Group.

Wharfedale occupies a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, celebrated for delivering exceptional value, musicality, and build quality that punches above its price point. Far from high-end esoterica or vintage collector bait, it appeals to discerning buyers seeking reliable, globally recognized performance without boutique premiums, its classics like the Diamonds remaining staples for generations of audiophiles.
