Wharfedale LINTON Heritage Speakers – A Genuine Classic Reborn
The Wharfedale LINTON is one of the most iconic models in Wharfedale’s storied history. With roots tracing back to 1965, the LINTON series has stood as a benchmark of quality and value across the decades. The newest incarnation blends fine craftsmanship, rich sound quality, and timeless aesthetics—delivering a speaker that’s as musical as it is beautiful.
Classically Modern Three-Way Design
The LINTON continues Wharfedale’s tradition of three-way speaker systems, combining vintage aesthetics with modern technology. It features hand-veneered cabinets, inset baffles, and traditional cloth grilles—balanced by advanced internal components for performance that’s both refined and faithful to its legacy.
Detailed Three-Way Driver Architecture
The system includes Wharfedale’s woven Kevlar cones mounted on rigid die-cast chassis. The bass is handled by a robust Kevlar woofer, while a dedicated midrange driver in its own chamber delivers lifelike vocals. A woven textile dome tweeter with a high-flux ferrite magnet ensures crisp and extended high frequencies. All elements are seamlessly unified via a carefully tuned crossover, perfected through thousands of hours of listening tests.
A True Classic with Lasting Style
While fashions may come and go, the LINTON’s design remains enduring. Simple, traditional, and beautifully executed, this speaker stands as a testament to Wharfedale’s legacy of creating loudspeakers that sound as good as they look—making it a lifelong investment for music lovers.
Optional Matching Stands
The Wharfedale LINTON Stands (sold separately) are designed specifically to complement these speakers. They feature matching wood veneers and a rigid, vibration-dampening structure to ensure optimal acoustic performance. They also bring the tweeter to ideal ear level for seated listening.
Vinyl Record Storage with Style
Adding practicality to elegance, the LINTON stands include thoughtfully designed space for your 12″ vinyl collection. This not only enhances the vintage appeal of the setup but provides a functional, music-focused centerpiece for your listening room.
