Wharfedale Linton Heritage with Stands (Pair)
Wharfedale Linton Heritage with Stands (Pair)
THE POWER OF AN ICON
Heritage owners know it’s not about being retro but capturing the true essence of an era – the excellence of its music, its art, its design. That’s why Wharfedale machines its rich history into the fabric of each Heritage piece, making every play iconic.
LOOK CLASSIC. FEEL CLASSIC.
Tired of your speakers looking like scent diffusers? LINTON represents one of the most iconic models in Wharfedale’s long history. By taping into a rich bloodline dating back to 1965, today’s LINTON continues to reflect your classic tastes.
QUALITY COMES IN THREES
LINTON marks the return of affordable 3-way standmount speaker design. And with a 200mm bass driver, 135mm midrange driver, and a 25mm soft dome tweeter, LINTONs holy trinity promises to resurrect your listening habits without breaking the bank.
STORE & DISPLAY YOUR FAVS
Want quick access to your favourite LPs? LINTON’s matching stands not only position your speakers at the perfect listening height – further fine-tuning each album experience, they’re uniquely designed to store and display your 12” vinyl records too.
A TASTE FOR THE TRUTH
Heritage is a quest for truth. So by using a sandwich construction method to scatter panel resonances causing audio colouration, LINTON helps you find the truth in your favourite recordings, not the signature of your speakers.
THEY’LL NEVER BELIEVE YOU
LINTON is available in two breathtaking true-timber veneers, walnut & mahogany, including their matching stands. Superbly crafted and hand finished, there’s no doubt your friends will marvel, but they’ll never believe what you paid.
SIZE MATTERS
Modern slim speakers suffer from an audible thinning known as baffle step. Not big box speakers. So Wharfedale further increased LINTONs baffle width and included a 200mm bass woofer to give your music the impact it’s missing.
A CLASSIC REIMAGINING
Woven Kevlar replaces paper & polymer cones, crossover design is computer aided & optimised, and bass units are reflex loaded by two rear ports. So new LINTON looks classic, but it meets all your contemporary music demands.
AUDIO COOKUP – GRILLE ON!
Asymmetrical cutouts in LINTONs speaker grilles mitigate interference caused by cabinet edge reflections found in traditional big-box speakers. So not only do LINTONs speaker grilles help maintain a low visual profile, they further improve your sound quality too.
AMP MATCHING MAGIC
Specific design elements, like woven Kevlar drivers and high-flux magnets, were chosen to ensure LINTON sings with amplifiers as small as 25W per channel. Put plainly, LINTON will run off the sniff of an oily rag.
