"One of the greatest budget loudspeakers ever, the 9.1s deliver a quality-laden performance...the 9.1s also look and feel like far more expensive speakers. Forget the bog-standard box design commonly used for budget boxes – these elegant standmounts boast curved, braced cabinets, cranking aesthetic appeal up a notch, and also helping reduce unwanted cabinet vibrations and dissipate any standing waves produced by the mid/bass driver."
The Yamaha A-S501 Stereo Amplifier presents a step-up in audio quality, showcasing Yamaha's century-long dedication to musical innovation. Through the integration of ToP-ART and quality internal components, this amp radiates precision and clarity. Features like Pure Direct Mode, the I/O Direct Symmetrical Design and ART Base also enhance signal efficiency by limiting the opportunity for interference to affect your listening experience.
With an RMS output of 85W per channel—in direct comparison to the A-S301's 60W—the Yamaha A-S501 can effortlessly fill a room with music. It even features adjustable sound via Continuous Variable Loudness Control and a range of inputs to connect both analogue and digital sources. With a sleek and intuitive front control panel, the A-S501 can blend into any contemporary living space. Trust in reliable performance.
To compliment this amplifier, the Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 Bookshelf Speakers are clear and precise with unmatched sound reproduction at their level. They boast curved, braced cabinets that not only allude to the premium aesthetic qualities of higher-priced speakers but also help to reduce unwanted cabinet vibrations and dissipate derogatory standing waves that can negatively affect your sound.
The five-inch Kevlar mid/bass driver and one-inch textile tweeter work effortlessly together, offering sparkling highs and full, controlled lows, revealing details in your favourite tracks that may have previously gone unheard. The gold-plated bi-wireable binding posts, a trait usually only found at higher price ranges, ensure complete versatility in your set-up and will benefit those who aim to achieve a precise and clean sound, where high and low frequencies blend harmoniously without a fight for air space.
