Wharfedale LINTON

A modern take on an iconic speaker

Wharfedale has a distinguished history of creating high-fidelity loudspeakers that sound — and look — terrific. A prime example is the LINTON Heritage: a stand-mounted, three-way speaker that first arrived on the British hi-fi scene in the 1960s. The latest iteration of the LINTON retains the speaker's classic look, while sporting newly designed drivers that deliver superb sound.

Important: This listing is for an individual speaker. Matched pairs of LINTON Heritage speakers are also available, and include two custom stands that ensure a sturdy, vibration-free foundation.

Sparkling performance

Wharfedale speakers are known worldwide for their natural, revealing, ultra-smooth sound. The LINTON Heritage is no exception, combining an 8" Kevlar® woofer with a 5" Kevlar midrange for rhythmic bass and rich, warm mids. A 1" woven textile dome tweeter delivers clear, crisp highs.

Get the most out of your speakers

For the best performance, I recommend driving your speakers with a quality power amp or integrated amplifier.

As you're setting things up, we suggest positioning the tweeter to the inside of each cabinet for the best stereo imaging (advice we received from Wharfedale's lead engineer for these speakers).

Check out my article on stereo speaker placement for additional positioning and setup tips.

Got wire?

The LINTON Heritages don't include any speaker wire. Read our article on choosing and installing speaker wire to find the best option for your system.
