Wharfedale Diamond 9.0 Speakers £39.95 + 6 year guarantee @ RicherSounds

No delivery :-(

I seem to only ever pass a store(which I live no where near) when they are £59 inc delivery, including this past weekend :laughing:

Oh that poor Chinese company..

I'm using my 9.1 speakers with my Onkyo :smiley:

YEP!, the 'Price Tag'?. :-)

EVERYTHING will?, during the longggggg Black Friday Weekend ..... :-)

Thanks, I wondered what I could use these speakers for

It's impossible to compare a bluetooth speaker with an integrated amplifier to a pair of bookshelf speakers.:neutral_face:

Let's just say if you add a decent enough amplifier and a google chromecast audio device the sound quality would trounce the SRS-X55, however it would not be portable.

And that is about as polite as I can be with such a nonsensical question.

Bloody hell, I know some people really love music but having speakers surgically implanted where your bum should be is taking it too far. The ethics of a cosmetic surgeon who would do the surgery is ..... I'll stop myself there as ethics and cosmetic surgery are often incompatible.

Never a dumb question on here - just dumb people calling you dumb to avoid facing up to their dumbness.

These are passive speakers (unpowered) You need an amp with them, for them to work from a source like a TV.

First question..... What TV do you have? These speakers need an amplifier. So you'll need a line/aux out from your tv into an amp. Doubt you'll be able to directly connect them to your set.

I currently use some speakers via my hi-fi set-up from my PVR.

I wouldn't. The sound isn't flat/neutral enough for monitors.

really? ive asked them to keep something for me with no problem

Well after my own previous experiences with RS I only use them on price never on service, although complaints before now have always been addressed and then I have had good prices....however in this instance you really cannot blame them for the upsell.....when you phoned you should have reserved them (they do allow reservations, usually even without a deposit), at this price and finite stocks it would have been the sensible thing to do.

However, if you did reserve them and they did not have them when you made the special journey you would have cause for complaint, granted.

You should specify how much you are looking to spend !

There is this 40WPc power amp Audiolab reduced from £500 to £179 !

​easy.
you want a tripath amp.
you can pick up a lepy 2024+ for £20ish probably less or a topping tp30 for about 50.

i own both and i have my topping hooked up with a chromecast to the diamond 9s. excellent stuff.

Denon RCD-M40DAB

Don't go in for all the audiophile BS. I have a Grundig stereo amp and power amp made in 1980 and it's as good as the Denon I just bought. The Denon sounds very good though. I'm using Heybrook Helios speakers with it, which were made in around 1998. The reason I got the Denon is so that I could use optical connections. The Chromecast audio sends out optical and is managed with the Google Cast app from the Play Store.

If there's not enough bass output for you then you can connect a subwoofer to the subwoofer output on the back of the amp. I have the Chromecast Audio connected to optical 1 and my TV connected to optical 2.

do I have to plump them every night in 6 different ways so they keep their shape? Also do they sell a 'care kit' for £80?

and you point is?

Yoda, is that you?

u wot m8

The speakers are independent of your amp, so whatever your amp can do these speakers will work with it. What I mean is that it's up to the design/configuration of your amp how it manages the bass sub independently of the stereo pair of speakers. The speakers are for replication of sound, they will produce bass, it's up to your amp to supply the bass to the speakers. The speakers in no way control the sound, your amp does, so look to your amp for how it manages bass output.

Lastly it's bass not base, base can't be used instead of the bass as it means something entirely different.

I always found them too "polite" for home cinema use but I'm guessing that's unimportant with Atmos speakers.

might be worth checking on your amp as I got my DTSx software update last week this was for the avr-2200w

I've got these and as front heights and 9.1 series are my surrounds both using the same wall brackets if that helps. I've used 2 different types of bracket and mixed on both lots of speakers so looks to be universal.
