Powerful, detailed presentation ; Impressive bass output ; Good value for such high quality

Underwhelming build quality ; Not the prettiest design

Finally the subwoofer hails from Wharfedale’s Powercube range, which is odd as it’s not a cube. Still, it’s a good-looking and surprisingly compact sub, tarted up in the same blackwood finish (with six other colours to choose from) and classy curved...

Good energy and rhythm ; Good with voices ; Very good imaging ; Effortless dynamics

A little dry due to unevenness in treble ; Detail good but not excellent

Transparent, honest sound ; decent build ; good detail and control

Don’t sound as exciting or insightful as the best new rivals

The Diamonds had a good innings as five-star speakers, but fresh competition now offers more for the money

A lot of speaker for the money ; detailed ; superb integration ; tight, controlled bass ; good soundstage

Lack of rhythm ; weak dynamics

The 10.5s have a lot of sonic plus points, but their timing and dynamic ability let them down

Tidy looks ; unflappable, self-assured sound

They perform differently, rather than better, against a wall ; unable to summon much sonic enthusiasm

The 10.0s are an ideal choice for the easily startled, but a little straitlaced for our liking

Digs deep, hits hard ; good tonal variation with music ; wide choice of finishes

Not as quick as it might be where music is concerned ; some chuffing from reflex-port at volume

Where bass is concerned it’s certainly got quantity, and to a great extent the Wharfedale has the quality, too

Build quality is top notch ; open, spacious sound ; detail is decent ; plenty of bass

Soft bass impacts on punch and dynamics

If you must have floorstanding speakers for this money, then these are as good as we've heard for some time

Superior voice band coherence, thanks to dome midrange driver ; Advanced enclosure shape and construction ensures minimal boxiness ; Separate plinth gives solid spike-mounting

Too much bling? ; Tonal balance a little too warm and laid back ; Lacks midband transparency

The unusual dome midrange driver seems well justified here for the superior coherence it brings to voice reproduction, both spoken and sung. The tonal balance might be a little too rich and laid back for some tastes

Compact dimensions ; detailed, punchy, direct sound ; excellent subwoofer

Centre channel could integrate better ; not as dynamic as the best systems at this price-point

The Diamond 10 HCP is a good system at a tempting price, but it's not quite up to the standard of the class leaders

Highly detailed sound; tight, potent bass reproduction; excellent value for money

Plasticky finish and rather pedestrian looks; larger cabinets than rival sub/sat systems
