Awarded a \u003cstrong\u003e5-Star ‘What Hi-Fi?’ review\u003c\/strong\u003e and described as \u003cem\u003e“the best of old hi-fi combined with the best of the new”\u003c\/em\u003e, the Linton brings together vintage proportions, genuine craftsmanship and cutting-edge acoustic engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA true three-way standmount design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike most modern bookshelf speakers, the Linton uses a \u003cstrong\u003egenuine three-way configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e – something seldom seen in today’s compact loudspeakers. This allows each frequency range to be handled by a dedicated driver, resulting in greater clarity, separation and realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA large \u003cstrong\u003e200mm Kevlar bass driver\u003c\/strong\u003e delivers deep, controlled low frequencies with real weight and authority. Above it, a \u003cstrong\u003e135mm Kevlar midrange driver\u003c\/strong\u003e, housed in its own internal enclosure, focuses entirely on vocals and instruments, giving the Linton its natural, open midband. High frequencies are handled by a \u003cstrong\u003e25mm fabric dome tweeter\u003c\/strong\u003e, chosen for its smooth, detailed and non-fatiguing treble response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a sound that feels expansive and layered, with excellent balance from top to bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage warmth, modern engineering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original Linton speakers of the 1960s and 70s were loved for their warm, easy-going presentation. The current Linton retains that musical character but benefits from decades of acoustic research. Modern materials, improved motor systems and carefully optimised crossovers bring dramatically improved detail, dynamics and tonal accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBass is deep yet controlled, mids are clear and expressive, and the soundstage feels wide and involving — ideal for everything from vinyl listening to high-resolution digital sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEfficient and easy to drive\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a \u003cstrong\u003e90dB sensitivity rating\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Wharfedale Linton speakers are highly efficient and surprisingly easy to power. They perform confidently with amplifiers from as little as \u003cstrong\u003e25 watts\u003c\/strong\u003e, yet scale beautifully with more powerful systems up to 200 watts. This makes them an excellent match for both classic integrated amps and modern hi-fi separates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClassic proportions, beautifully finished\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Linton’s wider and taller cabinet follows traditional standmount proportions, allowing for larger drivers and a more effortless sound. Despite the “big box” design, the speakers don’t feel overbearing thanks to their \u003cstrong\u003eluxurious real wood veneers\u003c\/strong\u003e and understated styling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in \u003cstrong\u003eWalnut, Mahogany or Black Oak\u003c\/strong\u003e, each pair features hand-matched veneers and a level of finish that feels premium rather than retro novelty. The dark grille is acoustically tuned for the recommended sound balance and helps the speakers blend naturally into living spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigned to be treasured\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery aspect of the Linton has been created with long-term ownership in mind. From the solid cabinet construction to the carefully damped internal bracing, these speakers are built to last and to reward serious music lovers over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional matching stands (sold separately) place the speakers at the ideal listening height, provide excellent vibration control and even include practical \u003cstrong\u003evinyl storage\u003c\/strong\u003e, reinforcing the Linton’s appeal to analogue enthusiasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWharfedale Linton Heritage loudspeakers (pair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 pre-installed speaker grilles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 self-adhesive rubber feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePair of white gloves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser manual\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eSpeaker stands sold separately\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table specification-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEnclosure Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBass reflex\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTransducer Complement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-way\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBass Driver\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\"(200mm) black woven Kevlar® cone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMidrange Driver\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5\"(135mm) black woven Kevlar® cone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTreble Driver\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\" (25mm) soft dome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAV Shield\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSensitivity (2.0V @ 1m)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90dB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRecommended Amplifier Power\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25-200W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePeak SPL\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e110dB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNominal Impedance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6Ω\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMinimum Impedance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5Ω\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrequency Response(+\/-3dB)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40Hz 20kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBass Extension(-6dB)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCrossover Frequency\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e630Hz \u0026amp; 2.4kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHeight (on plinth)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e565mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWidth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e300mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDepth (with terminals)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(330+30)mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNet Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.4kg\/pcs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct Code\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLinton-Black-Oak-pair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEAN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6974017843377\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"body-search-keyword\"\u003eWharfedale Linton Heritage Standmount Bookshelf Speakers Pair - Black Oak, Wharfedale, Linton, Heritage, Standmount, Bookshelf, Speakers, Pair, Black, Oak, LINTON-BO\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"homebloomhub","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":62753629503818,"sku":"200036727","price":756.83,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4838\/9962\/files\/wharfedale-linton-heritage-standmount-bookshelf-speakers-pair-black-oak-black-1210569404.jpg?v=1784310175","url":"https:\/\/bakons.com\/products\/wharfedale-linton-heritage-standmount-bookshelf-speakers-pair-black-oak","provider":"bakons","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
