De heruitgevonden super linton combineert tijdloze charme met hedendaagse techniek. Met diepe bassen tot 32 hz, een verfijnde middentoon en een soepele dome-tweeter levert hij een natuurlijk en levend
At €2,050, this asking price sits slightly above the 75th percentile of €1,950 and well above the median of €1,856 for recent EUR listings of the Wharfedale Super Linton bookshelf speakers, making it an ambitious but not unreasonable valuation for the used market. It is not a bargain by the database numbers, yet it remains within the broader EUR range of €997 to €2,397 seen across current offers, so it’s not wildly out of line if the pair is in solid condition.
The Super Linton is well-regarded for its better-damped bass and slightly higher sensitivity than the standard Linton, allowing closer wall placement and a bit more volume with the same input. If this listing is from an original owner with no cosmetic or mechanical issues, the slight premium reflects the speaker’s enduring pedigree and rhythmic clarity. Watch for missing stands or grille wear, but at this price point on a clean pair, it’s a worthwhile buy for listeners who value warm, controlled midbass and articulate vocals.

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.
