Hi,
As a satisfied owner of the Wharfedale Diamond 9.1, I decided to check out the recently launched 10.1. They sounded good to my ears with solid improvements in transparency and tonal texture.
However, I noticed one BIG flaw… the rear bass ports and improper
positioning with respect to the rear wall might have something to do
with this…. But bass was loose, boom-y and definitely not neutral. Also
the timing seemed a bit off, especially with the bass notes and
transients weren’t 100% natural…
my AKG K701 has jaw-dropping timing and my expectations were pretty high….
So I was a little disappointed, considering the fact that the Diamond 9.1 seemed to have better timing and more neutral bass. Any comments… ?
