WANTED Wharfedale Linton Heritage

[Tommytannoy]

Hi all,

Appreciate it's not an ideal time for this but have been looking for a pair of these relatively new speakers.
Haven't seen any come up on SH market other than ex-demo so either people very happy with them or they haven't sold many yet?

Anyway if anyone was thinking about changing speakers am in the market.
Would aim to arrange collection or delivery in a few weeks when things settle down.

Thanks!

I’ve been looking for a while now... the only pair I saw were ex-dem with stands for £899 from a dealer ‘oop north’, and they’d gone when I called. Rocking horse poo they are...

[Colin2040]

Not that I am selling mine but I can say loving them! Had them for 7 or so months and think they are very good.

[Tommytannoy]

Yes saw that ex-dem too!
Suppose at its price-point doesn't attract many box-swappers

[Jason P]

There are a lot of places offering 0% deals and I’ve seen them for £1099 inc stands. Might be worth considering...

[Martyn Miles]

Might be worth making an offer given the present situation, but £999 at Audio Affair that
might be the best deal.
They are rather good speakers !

Are these the Heritage ?

[VanDerGraaf]

That's them. Been very interested in these- great to see a mainstream manufacturer having the guts to NOT make yet another slim, tall box with tiny drivers.

Found a shop in Edinburgh with a Walnut ex-demo pair for £892 with stands.
Arriving today!

I'd love to know how you find them. I've just realised (!) that I might be in the market for a pair as they might be what I'm looking for (i.e. the detail of my LS50s with a bit more presence and larger soundstage...maybe?) Wondering whether to take a punt! ;)

Fantastic -I hope they do what you want. Great price too.

You lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky... :D

Full report please. Soon as ;)

[Tommytannoy]

Yes will do!

Have them setup and ready to go. Build quality superb.
Unfortunately my Bel Canto monoblocks (and other bits) are currently down the road in storage but should get it all going this weekend.

Bit late but if anyone else interested

thought i'd say I managed to pick up a pair in walnut, with stands ex demo (40ish hours play, not a mark) from a local dealer in the Gateshead area for £867. I'm parting with my monitor audio silver 200s in black oak (bought dec 19) for these! the MAs are not to my liking, the Wharfedales are a whole different beast indeed... plus they look like something from 70s gentlemen magazines too. love them.
