In the end it is about overall sound quality to me Wharfedale 10.1 - a look inside It should be noted that the Diamond 10.1's do not look that pretty on the inside. The insulation is just stuffed in and the crossover is vertical above the binding posts. As to whether this effects the sound is another story. There still good speakers. The photo is just a little misleading as it is probably a show piece. http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/multi-way/272143-inside-wharfedale-diamond-10-1-a.html
