Voices are projected with transparency and are full of character, and there’s an ease and spaciousness to the speakers' performance that makes this a set-up that’s immensely enjoyable to listen to for long periods of time and a What Hi-Fi? 2022 award winner.
The Evo 4.4 5.1 pack is a powerful but detailed system that never sounds like it's having to work too hard. However, no amount of curved edges can skirt around the fact that these are relatively large speakers and will be tricky to house for anyone who doesn’t have the luxury of a dedicated home cinema room. The Evo range is elegantly designed with bowed cabinet sides and rounded corners and comes in three smart wood grain finishes – black, white and walnut.

There are also the same 50mm, domed midrange driver and kevlar woofers and bother the fronts and rears benefit from Wharfedale’s Slot Loaded Profiled Port (SLPP) technology for low frequencies with less distortion and improving efficiency. There's a lot of consistency across the system, including Air Motion Transformer tweeters that use a lightweight, pleated diaphragm instead of a cone or dome to provide responsive and immediate high frequencies. This system (available in the UK with a small discount as a bundle) comprises the Evo 4.4 floorstanders, the Evo 4.2 bookshelf speakers and the Evo 4.C centre channel, partnered with the SW-12 sub. Read the full review: Wharfedale Diamond 12.1 HCPĭeveloped concurrently with Wharfedale's flagship Elysian range, the Evo4.4 5.1 speakers are packed with technology that uses the same concepts as its bigger sibling, bringing innovative tech and a refined and relaxed sensibility to this more affordable, though still pricey, speaker package. Large enough to provide cinematic scale with a wide soundfield, but discreet and affordable enough to be accessible to a variety of audiences, the Diamond 12.1 system proves to be an excellent choice for both music and film, which is why it's a 2022 What Hi-Fi? award winner. It's an incredibly musical sub blending seamlessly with the smaller speakers, which themselves have an impressively well-integrated low end. The tautness and dexterity of the SW-10 is remarkable. The package is made up of a quartet of the excellent, mid-sized Diamond 12.1 bookshelf speakers for fronts and surrounds with the 12.C in the middle and the SW10 powered subwoofer supplying the bass. It offers rich bass without sacrificing or overpowering the mid and treble, presenting a mature sound that’s rich in impact, agility, detail and sensitivity. With poise, effortlessness, cut glass diction and charisma, the Wharfedale Diamond 12.1 HCP is essentially the Audrey Hepburn of home theatre speaker packages. Doesn't have the scale of a floor stander system
