Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best Wharfedale speaker to build a system around?
For most listeners building a system they plan to keep, the Linton and Super Linton are Wharfedale's flagship recommendation. They combine the brand's three-way heritage engineering with a wider soundstage and fuller scale than a standard bookshelf speaker, and they've picked up multiple industry awards for exactly that combination. Not sure which fits your room? Call 647-977-1100 and we'll help you choose.
What's the difference between the Wharfedale Linton and Super Linton?
The Super Linton is the larger expression of the same heritage design, with a bigger cabinet and added bass driver for more scale and low-end authority in larger rooms. The Linton delivers the same three-way character in a more compact footprint for mid-sized rooms. Both share the same tuning philosophy and the classic Wharfedale heritage cabinet.
How does the Linton compare to the Denton, Dovedale and Aston heritage models?
These all come from Wharfedale's Heritage series, built around the same vintage-inspired cabinet philosophy but at different scale and price points. The Denton and Super Denton are the more compact heritage bookshelf models, the Linton and Super Linton sit as the range's most popular all-rounders, and the Dovedale is the top of the heritage line with the largest cabinet and most refined performance. The Aston is a limited-edition heritage design for collectors who want something distinct from the core Linton lineup.
What is the Wharfedale Aura series, and how does it compare to Elysian?
Aura takes design and technology inspiration directly from Wharfedale's flagship Elysian series, delivering a big step up in detail and dynamics over the Diamond and EVO ranges at a more attainable price. The Elysian series itself is Wharfedale's true reference flagship, built for listeners who want the brand's absolute best regardless of cost.
Are Wharfedale speakers good for vinyl and turntables?
Yes, and it's where the brand's heritage models shine brightest. The Linton and Super Linton in particular were designed with the warm, musical tuning that pairs naturally with a turntable-based system, continuing a sound signature Wharfedale has refined since the 1960s. Vinyl Sound can help you build a complete matched turntable, amplifier and speaker setup around them.
Do I need a subwoofer with Wharfedale speakers?
Most Wharfedale floorstanding and heritage models, including the Linton and Super Linton, deliver full, satisfying bass on their own. If you want extra low-end for home theater or want to feel bass-heavy music at higher volume, Wharfedale's D-series and SW-series subwoofers are voiced to extend that same low end without changing the character of your main speakers.
Does the Linton or Super Linton need matching stands?
Most Wharfedale floorstanding and heritage models, including the Linton and Super Linton, deliver full, satisfying bass on their own. If you want extra low-end for home theater or want to feel bass-heavy music at higher volume, Wharfedale's D-series and SW-series subwoofers are voiced to extend that same low end without changing the character of your main speakers.
What about the Wharfedale Diamond series?
Diamond is Wharfedale's compact, entry-level range, a straightforward way into the Wharfedale sound for smaller rooms or a first system. If you're building a system you plan to keep and grow with, the Linton, Super Linton and Aura ranges give you the brand's flagship engineering and heritage cabinet design that Diamond isn't built to replicate.
Are Wharfedale bookshelf or floorstanding speakers better for my room?
It depends on room size. Standmount models like the Linton and Super Linton are ideal for most living rooms and dedicated listening spaces, while floorstanding models in the EVO and Elysian ranges suit larger rooms and home theater setups where you want more scale without adding a subwoofer.
Can I audition Wharfedale speakers in person in Toronto, and is there warranty support?
Yes. Vinyl Sound carries the full Wharfedale lineup, including the Linton and Super Linton, in our Toronto showroom, so you can hear the difference in scale between models before you buy.
