Wharfedale Linton Heritage 85th Anniversary


These are fun speakers.  They are musical and smooth. An absolute pleasure to hear with tubes.

I cannot believe how well made they are at this price point.  I'd like to wheel in a pair of Harbeths or Spendors (classic type) to have a shootout.  The stands are well executed.  Everything feels substantial and high end.  Color me impressed.

I just purchased a pair of these from a local dealer with the matching stands. I have owned many pairs and brands of high end speakers over the past 40 plus years and this set is an absolute joy out of the box. fit and finish is as good as I have seen on any speaker. my dealer also carries Harbeth and you would have to go to a pair of them in the $5k range to better these . wonderful to listen to and total eye candy if you like the classic look. I am sick of tower speakers. Finally a speaker that is affordable and makes superb music. 
I have owned these with the matching stands for a few months.. I was looking for a retro styled speaker at the time I found these at a local dealer. After auditioning them on a mid fi marantz integrated I bought the set. The dealer also carries harbeth. I compared them to a pair of harbeths that were more than twice the price. I use them for music. No home theater here. They are paired with a Yamaha s2000 integrated amp and the matching c2000 CD player. Analog is a vintage Yamaha yp b6 TT.  I thoroughly enjoy this system as a whole. I had a pair of Linn majik 140s prior to the lintons. The 140s are for sale. I am using a rel sub with them.
