Three-way speakers really make a difference in speakers with woofers of only 8". Paired a Rega Elex amp, they really shine. Beautiful cabinetry, wonderful sound and a relative bargain.

I received my new Lintons a few weeks ago. I was blown away by the quality of construction. The real Mahogany veneer is stunning. After 30+ hours of listening, I am simply astounded by sound. My 60 year old ears are 100% astounded. Big, enveloping, warm and retro sound that embraces your senses. Thank you Kevin & crew - always a pleasure doing business with you. Peace/Love/Music.

Got my Wharfedale Linton's in less than a week from Upscale Audio. Shipped to Ohio from CA. Kevin and his team are def top notch. I would buy more products from them again. May be looking for a Prima Luna to go with my Lintons or Cornwall 1's. Really enjoying the Lintons right now. Believe everthing you've heard about them (the good). Warm, detailed, bass. It has it all. Thank you Upscale Audio

Replaced my 1975 JBL bookshelves with the Heritage and very pleased with sound.

I had read a lot about these speakers and thought they could be a good fit for me as an all around speaker with warm yet clear presentation and good bass. They delivered on all of that but after some time with them I found that, for me, I was missing some of the excitement and top end that other speakers (e.g. Klipsch Heresy) deliver. While I really came to appreciate these speakers and they sound really great, and they're especially awesome at their price point, they just weren't what I'm looking for. Richard was great to work with and had them ready to pick up very quickly, and was also great and easy to work with in arranging their return while also helping to talk me through some other options to try. Great experience, and I really appreciate Upscale's willingness to honor to their return policy if you're not completely happy with your purchase.

Speakers sound good, I waited to buy the stands to see if the stands I have would be okay. Then I decided to get the stands and they went from 300 to 500 dollars, not worth the extra 200

I give this speaker 5 stars for value. I was replacing some circa 1978 speakers that I used in a secondary system used to listen to as back ground or party purposes. I bought some well reviewed speakers in the $600 range and thought with a sub these would work. I was disappointed by the lack of fun. I looked at the Lintons and figured they might be what I wanted. Indeed these speakers rock and are provide a lot of listening fun. Don't need the sub anymore.

it's a nice speaker, with a beautiful sound for albums from the "California sound" genre but a little noisy. Probably needs a much bigger space than I have.
