Wharfedale is the British heavyweight champion of value-for-money loudspeakers. Every single component, from woofer cone to cabinet, is both designed and built in-house. This creates unparalleled quality control while maintaining the lowest possible price. And with a range that extends from entry-level to extreme luxury, Wharfedale has a specific loudspeaker to suit you – anywhere along your audio journey.

Super Linton isn’t just a modern reimagining of the original Wharfedale Super Linton in the late 60s; it’s a complete reimagining of the modern Linton listening experience. Super Linton embodies the best parts of Linton Heritage and refines every measure of the frequency band, an open, detailed HF sparkle, mind-boggling midrange realism, and dynamic bass impact.

A SUPER LINTON EXPERIENCE

How do you improve Wharfedale’s highest selling loudspeaker of all time? You spend every additional penny of the increased asking price on squeezing as much additional performance out of the Linton that you can. And you do it in such a manner so as fans can’t help but reach just that little bit deeper into their pockets for a superior listening experience. A Super Linton experience.

SUPER LINTON

This 3-way vented-box standmount loudspeaker features a new 200mm woven kevlar bass driver, a 135mm woven kevlar midrange driver and newly designed 25mm soft dome treble unit. Plus, with increased cabinet volume (605 x 300 x 330mm) and a highly refined split PCB crossover, Super Linton is the superior Linton in Wharfedale’s Heritage family.

CROSSOVER CRAFTSMANSHIP

A newly designed split PCB crossover avoids electromagnetic interference that degrades delicate midrange and treble performance, while audiophile-grade inductors, capacitors, and resistors were chosen with painstaking precision to seamlessly stitch together high, mid, and low frequencies, giving your music a single, unified voice.

OFF THE DEEP END

Greater cabinet volume, increased magnet strength, and a more powerful motor system bootstrap Super Linton’s bass extension. But more remarkable than the 32 Hz it can deliver is the improved transiences and bass impact, delivering low notes with weight and at lightning speed.

FROM FIRST AMP TO FLAGSHIP

Rated at 90dB for 2.83V, Super Linton’s high sensitivity and steady 6Ω impedance (8Ω compatible) mean it’ll partner with almost any amplifier and never overload it. But its 25 - 200W recommended amp power rating ensures that Super Linton can also grow with you.

BUILT TO EXCEED EXPECTATION

Combining padded inner walls of thick acoustic damping foam with long-hair fibre and Wharfedale’s advanced Sandwich cabinet construction, Super Linton exceeds its predecessor’s damping performance, reducing cabinet resonances to levels below audibility. Now you can experience the true texture of each note and not the colour of Linton’s cabinets.

MIDRANGE MAGIC

Super Linton’s revised midrange chamber, a now generously proportioned cylindrical design with graded layers of long-hair fibre damping, cancels rear-cone back waves for remarkable midrange clarity. Linton long prided itself on midrange realism. Super Linton is nothing short of surreal.

DEVIL IN THE DETAIL

Super Linton’s design brief was simple. If it improved performance, it was reworked. That’s why specially contoured profile updates, that minimised edge interference and maximised midrange/treble balance, were implemented within Super Linton’s grilles. A small tweak for significant listener rewards.

TAKING LINTON TO NEW HEIGHTS

An updated shorthorn profile, paired with a newly designed front plate, smooths treble response and enhances dispersion, while its new lightweight fabric dome, coated with a special damping material and driven by a ceramic magnet system, delivers sweet, detailed upper frequencies.

DESIGNED TO STAND TALL

While Super Linton stands 2 inches (50mm) taller, its width and depth remain untouched. So it’s perfectly positioned to rest upon the original Linton stand, the widely-praised LP storage doubles that let vinyl fans display their favourite albums beneath their favourite speakers.
