Linton

Classic vintage warmth without being tiring, it’s Wharfedale Linton, and Super Lintons for me all the way.

Welcome to the analog fun times mate. I was similar, although running KT88s, and really it’s the best I've had it. I use to firmly believe you need the highest power you can afford, but now 25W on Triode and 45W on UL is actually more than enough with my Wharfedale Super Lintons. I never even touch

You have to stop at the rung, where music sounds good to you. For me, thats Dali Oberon 5s and Wharfedale Lintons. I have heard far more expensive setups, an

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
