Wharfedale - England - Linton 3XP Speaker

The original Linton went on to become one of the best selling speakers of its era. It started off as a two-way model with a 3in tweeter and 8in bass unit, but over time developed into a three–way design called the Linton 3XP. That original stood out for the innovative use of a Flexiprene roll-surround in the suspension of its bass unit. The tweeter was also unusual in being encased in its own acoustic dome to isolate it from the vibrations generated by the bass unit. The sound nice. To me, they have "that" smooth vintage sound. Structurally they are stong, All components working fine. Their cabinets could however benefit from a polish, especially the top of the one on the left. See the pictures. One of the speaker grills, is missing some it's plastic pins that secure the grill to the cabinet, the one on the right. I am pointing towards this on the photo. Will be packed very good, box in box in box, for shipping.
