 Wharfedale Linton 85th Anniversary Heritage Edition

Celebrating 85 years of British audio excellence with authentic vintage styling and modern acoustic engineering

"A masterpiece that bridges the golden age of hi-fi with today's demanding audiophile standards. The Linton Heritage series represents everything Wharfedale has learned about creating emotionally engaging sound reproduction."

🏛️ A Legacy Reborn

In 1932, Gilbert Briggs founded Wharfedale with a simple mission: to reproduce sound so faithfully that listeners would feel transported to the original performance. The Linton 85th Anniversary edition honors this legacy while incorporating eight decades of acoustic innovation.

Originally launched in the 1980s, the Linton became synonymous with British hi-fi excellence. This Heritage edition faithfully recreates the classic aesthetic while delivering performance that exceeds the original in every measurable way.
