My small room listening setup complete

This is a 9 sq.m. room that I tried to cram everything in. I used to have the Wharfedale Linton here and finally accepted that it was quite too big. The Q Concerto Meta replaced that nicely, a little bit harder to drive but I feel that it's easier to control in such a small room. Used to always watc

Finally: Super Linton

I love the Super Lintons and use them in my TV setup as well. Not a fan of running speaker cables in the wall though. 2.0 isn’t ideal for TV listening, especially with dialog, so I added a center, a Wharfedale Evo 5.C, and switched from an integrated amplifier to an AVR … what a difference that made

PSA: KEF R5 Metas are on sale, around 3K a pair

That’s about what I paid when they went on sale in March pre-tariffs. They are great speakers for 2 channel listening and definitely good value at that $1500/speaker. I chose these over the Wharfedale super lintons due to their better clarity and sharpness.

Wharfedale Linton vs Super Linton vs KLH Model Five

I have the Klh Model 5s and I love them but room placement and toe in angle are very important to tame the tweeter. Basically if you can pull them 2-3 feet out and point them straight ahead or with minimal toe in and bring the back selector to low the speaker will give you great bass, a warm midrang

Reverse Engineering the Wharfedale Dovedale 90th Anniversary Speakers

If you are going through the effort of doing a custom build you should use a higher quality mid and tweeter. You can have better sensitivity, less basket resonance on the mid, and a higher first breakup mode on the tweeter. https://www.parts-express.com/Dayton-Audio-SIG150-4-5.25-Signature-Series-Wo

Speakers for tube amp / Live Grateful Dead

They aren’t floor standing in the traditional sense, but Wharfedale super lintons are in my opinion perfect for old Dead recordings.

Wharfedale Linton vs Super Linton vs KLH Model Five

I just updated my speakers to a set of Wharfedale Super Lintons. I use a similar amplifier the Yamaha A-S1100 and the super Lintons are really great. I use a Rel T/X9 SE sub and plan to get a second one but overall the Super Lintons have been a really great upgrade. The Super Lintons not only sound

To sub or not to sub...

I don't have a sub. I just have wharfedale super lintons. I listen to classic rock and classic metal. I have a sub in my 5.1 surround. But I don't feel it adds much

My new Super Lintons

Very nice setup. Let us know what you end up using on the grills if you reupholster them. I tried listening to my Super Lintons without the grills and definitely prefer them on. I've read that Wharfedale tuned them with the grills in place. To everyone saying to pull them away from the wall, the Sup

My nirvana

Very, cool setup. I personally just switched to a set of Wharfedale Super Linton speakers. What do think of the Evo 5.3? They are really beautiful. Any thoughts to moving the speakers to separate stands? Unfortunately, that close to the table you will get troublesome vibrations that may affect track
