| Content | In the early 1980s, Wharfedale created the blueprint for modern ‘budget’ hi-fi speakers. Almost four decades on, Wharfedale again redefines the low-cost, high-performance speaker concept with the all-new range, the D300 Series.
Running concurrently with the existing Diamond 11 Series, attaining even lower price points, the D300 series has modishly styled enclosures incorporate many similar technologies, re-designed and engineered specifically for this new range. The drive units and bass reflex system are especially noteworthy – no other speaker range delivers such high specifications at such low prices.

If itʼs hard to put the sound of the CM9 into words, thatʼs just as well. This top-of-the-range floorstanding speaker will fill even the largest domestic spaces with music so richly detailed, and so startlingly lifelike, that it will leave you speechless.
The three-way CM9 delivers truly commanding bass with the aid of twin 165mm paper/Kevlar® cone drive units. An FST® driver, with its characteristic compression surround supporting the outer edge of the distinctive Kevlar® cone, is specially developed for outstanding midrange performance. The CM9ʼs Nautilus™ tube-loaded aluminium dome tweeter keeps high frequencies crisp and sharp all the way up to 50kHz and beyond.
The quality of CM Series drive units has made it possible to use minimalist crossovers throughout the whole range. The resulting gentle transition between drivers avoids the unnaturally rapid changes in dispersion that bedevil more complex designs, while the high quality components, carefully chosen after exhaustive listening tests, ensure that as little as possible gets between you and the sound of the original recording.
All CM Series speakers come with aluminium driver trims. Grilles attach magnetically, so there are no unsightly grille-mounting features to spoil the clean lines of the speakerʼs façade. For the finish, you can choose either one of two real-wood veneers in Rosenut or Wengé, or a highly polished gloss black.

| Magnat Monitor Supreme 802 Three Way Street Speakers Black
The Monitor Supreme 802 is the smallest floor-standing speaker in the range and offers everything we expected from the Supreme name: A compact MDF construction, precise guides and a simple design with a visually offset aperture.
The speaker, which is available in two high quality wood tones, is equipped with a 170 mm bass speaker and a 170 mm midrange speaker, with specially coated cones, which offer a very high level of dynamics in the bass category and good accuracy throughout frequency range. The 25 mm coated fabric canopy with the new tweeter flange also ensures significantly enhanced dispersion properties.
THE SERIES HAS SIGNIFICANT BENEFITS FROM THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEW TWEETER
All speakers are fine-tuned using the Klippel laser measurement system and are equipped with durable metal baskets and ultra-strong magnetic drivers. The woofers use a specially coated cellulose cone, which results in a significant reduction of some vibrations while reducing weight. The aim of this is to perfect the accuracy of music reproduction and achieve maximum dynamics. The floorstanding speakers in the series and the 202 feature a newly developed 25mm dome for the treble. The fabric dome, which is driven by a ferrite magnet, ensures a balanced reproduction throughout the relevant frequency range. The newly designed tweeter flange also ensures the production of a more homogeneous treble. Due to their smaller size, the 102 and the center speaker of this series are equipped with a somewhat smaller, but very high-resolution 13 mm dome.
THE LEVEL OF QUALITY IS APPEARABLE IN ALL THE SPEAKERS IN THE SERIES
The high quality crossovers used in this series are responsible for distributing the music signals to the respective speakers. These crossovers, which have an octave slope of up to 18 dB as well as phase correction, perform their tasks perfectly. The housings themselves, which are slightly tapered backwards, are a real visual and technical feature. These are made of durable MDF and have minimal tuning. Monitor Supreme speakers have an attractive black aperture and are available in two high quality wood shades (Black or Mocha). Large floor speakers are fitted with rubber or metal tips to prevent ground coordination. Solid, gold-plated screw terminals on the back of the speakers ensure a perfect connection to an amplifier - with the sole exception of the Monitor Supreme 102 due to the limited space available on the ultra-compact shelf speaker.
