Perhaps but the Dovedale is sorta that? This is interesting because it’s still bookshelf sized but is 3 way, I don’t think I’ve seen that before.

It’s not officially announced so don’t know for sure but it looks about the same, which would make sense so as not to cannibalise the Linton. I hear the Denton 85 is great…

I like my Denton 80s.
Which means I’m 2 versions behind on these new ones so I probably have to buy them…right?

I agree, sorta in the sense that it's the next step in the Heritage line but at 5x the price that's a big step that not a lot of Linton owners are likely to make until they buy and sell a few more speakers making reasonable jumps each time.

Yeah I suppose my thinking is that they’re both 3 way wide baffle large stand mounts. What do you do to the Linton to make it super without it being too similar to the dovedale. Increase the woofer and mid in size and you’re matching it. Increase the cabinet volume and likely the same. But they are doing the Super Linton so I’m guessing that some of the internal driver mounting and crossover wizardry in the dovedale must make a big difference.

Well more just to say that those speakers appear to be on the horizon!
Let's face it, The Lintons are easier to live with than most people, period.

I like picturing him as an anonymous visitor until he saw the perfect opportunity for a perfectly placed joke and he sped through profile creation to grace us with a solid lol.

You found a cool place full of mostly well-meaning eccentrics. Prone to inside jokes and wild tangents. You'll figure out who the "trouble-makers" are soon enough.
As for the Lintons, I think I've had mine for 2 or more years and I've not looked back.
