The Diamond 8 series is the result of over three years intensive research and development into virtually every aspect of acoustic design. First, the tweeter in all models is a 25mm textile dome, ferrofluid cooled unit powered with an ultra-strong neodymium magnet for the fastest, most accurate response we have ever achieved. Next, the woofer cone is made from a bi-directional KEVLAR weave - self-damping in nature, reducing resonant frequencies to virtually negligible levels. The impetus for rapid movement here, is a dual layer, vented voice coil which transmits the signal information with the highest levels of accuracy. The cone is mounted on a nitrile rubber 'Flexaural surround rim'. A profiled phase plug improves the off-axis performance to project an excellent stereo image across a wide listening area.
The Diamond 8 family has a heritage extending over twenty years and throughout has been Britain's best-selling loudspeaker. This pattern has been repeated around the world with 5 star reviews and accolades in every country in which it has been available. As such the Diamond 8 series represents a de facto standard for sound quality and balance in a tremendous number of home stereo and A/V systems. The consistency and quality of these speaker systems across a wide variety of source materials, from Jazz to Rock, Classical, to Movie Sound Track and effects, gives a tried and proven basis for a monitor to give the professional recording and post production industry a superb reference for the creation and mixing of program material for the real world.
