Wharfedale Linton 85th Anniversary Review

[MikeH]

If they charge tax and ship to WA it won't matter. If I could buy it in OR it would be no sales tax in person. Same with if it's shipped to OR.

I was frankly confused when my order from the place in CA didn't charge sales tax but shipped to me for free in NY.

@bdm105 are you in the Seattle area? If so maybe consider going to Hawthorne Stereo, they carry the Lintons and its where I bought mine. Look to have stock too. Wharfedale Linton 85th Anniversary Standmount Speakers

Yes, I stole them as I escaped the shabby apartment. Strangely enough they were made out of Doobie Brothers records.

The all important question - were they pre or post Michael McDonald Doobie Brothers records?

Because if they were post Michael McDonald, the thief did @Mather a favor.

I'll check it out. But at that point I mint as well get them shipped because I'd be paying taxes on them

Mine should be arriving with a Leak 130 on Saturday! Thanks again everyone for the advice, I'll be back with pics once it's setup.

Order placed from MD. Called in to order. Asked for a 10% discount and was given one so that negated taxes.

 

[bdm105]

Added bonus. Apparently i have an amex deal to do their plan it feature for $0 fee to try it out. So might get to do it over 3 payments and get the amex points.

They like to recommend Audioquest CV-4 speaker cables for Linton's as well. Might be something to ask about.

How many of us now have BJC 10 (or 12) into the Lintons?

I have the white 12s. My cables are really long because the speakers are on either side of a fireplace and I planned to run the cables over the mantle

DID SOMEONE SAY CABL- i'll see myself out

Speakers arrived. My MM6 is still in label created stage. Going to resist the urge to set them up with my current receiver that isn't strong enough for them
