Te koop aangeboden: een set wharfedale super linton luidsprekers in walnoot, inclusief de originele stands. De speakers verkeren in uitstekende staat en worden geleverd met de originele dozen en acces
This is a buyer’s market for modern standmounts, and the €1,850 asking price for the Wharfedale Super Linton is fair, sitting just below the €1,851 median from your three recent EUR comparables and well within the €1,576–€1,853 range. It’s not a bargain, but it’s not ambitious either—this is a solid, transparently priced opportunity for a well-regarded speaker.
The Super Linton is a three-way standmount with an 8” Kevlar bass driver, 5” Kevlar mid, and 1” soft dome tweeter, delivering deep bass down to 32Hz and a tonally rich, impactful sound that reviewers call a “tone monster.” Its enlarged cabinet and sandwich construction reduce resonance, while 90dB sensitivity makes it amp-friendly. At this price, it’s a clear buy for anyone seeking heritage-grade performance without the £1,850+ open-box or new retail markups.

Wharfedale traces its roots to 1932, when Gilbert Briggs, a music enthusiast and audio pioneer, crafted his first loudspeaker in the cellar of his home in Ilkley, Yorkshire, England. Named after the scenic Wharfedale valley along the River Wharfe, the company quickly gained traction among radio enthusiasts, winning early competitions and expanding to a factory near Bradford by 1933. Sold to the Rank Organisation in 1958, with Briggs managing until 1965, Wharfedale evolved from wartime subcontracting to postwar dominance in high-fidelity audio, blending British engineering heritage with relentless innovation.
The brand remains synonymous with loudspeakers, pioneering designs like the roll surround cone in the late 1950s, ceramic magnets in 1962, and the acoustic suspension system in the 1960s for deeper bass in compact cabinets. Iconic models such as the Linton, Denton, and enduring Diamond series—launched in 1981—define its core. While it briefly ventured into amplifiers, receivers, turntables, tuners, and even televisions or DVD players until 2008, Wharfedale now focuses exclusively on audio equipment under the International Audio Group.
Wharfedale occupies a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, celebrated for delivering exceptional value, musicality, and build quality that punches above its price point. Far from high-end esoterica or vintage collector bait, it appeals to discerning buyers seeking reliable, globally recognized performance without boutique premiums, its classics like the Diamonds remaining staples for generations of audiophiles.
