All in all, if you are open to experiment, go for them, but if you have doubts, its okay to pass on these till you can audition in person/have the right amplification.

The Wharfedale Diamond 12.3 is a tower speaker. The KEF LS50 is a standmount mini monitor.
So the Diamond 12.3 would be more suitable for filling a larger room, while the KEF would be more appropriate for a smaller room or in a nearfield/desktop setup. You would need to supplement the LS50 with a subwoofer to get more full range, whereas the Diamond 12.3 shouldn't require one unless you really wanted more sub-bass for like movies or listen to really deep bass music (electronica, etc.).
I have no experience with the Diamond 12.3, but I recently picked up the standmount version Diamond 12.2 and I think they sound great. They have a more neutral sound than previous Wharfedale speakers I've owned (Diamond 225, Denton 80th Anniversary). which sound more warm and rolled off in the treble in comparison. These newer Diamond 12 series sound very uncolored and true to the source. So if that is the type of sound you're looking for and you intend to use the 12.3 in a medium to large sized room, I think you'll be happy.
Apples to oranges but the Q150 are amazing speakers at the price and phenomenal on sale.

I would recommend 12 awg.
But what's most important is that you get speaker wire that is 100% copper. There is some wire that is CCA, which has an aluminum core with a copper skin. That's crap. Look for 100% oxygen-free copper.
I have 3 watts single-ended pentode amp driving pair of Lii 15 custom speakers and believe me, it's a heaven under a grand.
Of course if you want expensive nice looking piano finish piece of furniture, $499 Denon from Costco will be just fine.
