Erin, you nailed the reason for the design of the Super Denton - it is directly aimed at someone who wants the character and musicality of Linton but doesn't have room for a large speaker. Like Linton, Super Denton will play any genre of music and will draw you into the music and give you that emotional connection with the performance which is the key to enjoyable listening. Of course Super Denton is ideal for smaller rooms and Erin is right, put them 1- 2 feet (30-60cm) or so from the front wall and you'll achieve the target bass performance which will extend powerfully to 40Hz. It will also fill in the midrange a little and achieve the most balanced performance. Obviously it was a challenge designing such a small 3-way speaker, especially with the offset midrange and treble unit arrangement. However, this looks worse in Erin's tests than it is in practice because once you're 1.5 metres/5 feet away from the speakers the output of all the drivers blends very well, even if you're listening off-axis. Thank you, Erin, for such an informative appraisal of the Super Denton and I'm glad you had fun listening to them.

I believe you are exactly right with why you noticed cancelation I could see right away that they would have issues . I don't know why they would design a speaker with the tweeter, mid alignment. That's why you see modern designs with the mid and tweeter as close as possible depending on the size of the mid and the crossover point also the mid and tweeter aligned over each other vertical would cause less combing effects . I would like to see what components they are using for the crossover.

I just ordered a pair - in no small part assisted by your excellent review. Thank you. I am in Australia and have Lintons my living room (love them) and am interested in a similar sound in my study, a smaller room. Always a bit of a punt with new speakers of course and I cannot easily audition them in Western Australia where I am. I'd be 'replacing' Elac DBR62s. What I expect I'll do is have both and interchange them from time to time for that somewhat different sound. I'm likely to run a SVS sb1000 subwoofer with the Dentons, but I'll see how they go with and without. Peter's comment on your review helped a lot too. Underscored your findings I suppose and fitted my use case.

That dome midrange looks bigger than 2, maybe 2.5, the 2.5 khz dip I can bet could be fixed adding another capacitor on the tweeter so if the tweeter has 2 order crossover then put 3 order and that retards the signal putting them on phase, a choke LCR on the 650 hz is needed to avoid coloration

Erin, I really like your reviews and I have a lot of trust in your comments. There is perhaps one thing that I would like to see in your future comments that I think might better complete your reviews for some of your viewers. Here's my main point: Some speakers have a linear response but do not sound very convincingly or they are not very transparent due to poor design in the crossover or poor drivers. I would appreciate if you could at times make comments regarding the tone of the speaker (example is the female voice well reproduced) or, how is attack of the notes and the decay? Is the bass bloated or tight? Thanks

Erin. Unrelated. But kinda related. I agonized for two months selecting a new speaker as I move my Paradigm Prestige 15b to a third system I am putting together. Seriously thought about the Super Denton (Linton as well but the Denton would not fit in my bedroom listening space. Height of the stands would not clear the bed I listen across from). Anyway based on your review bough KEF R3 Meta. Arrived April 1st. Absolutely LOVE them!!! I have them toed in maybe 5 degrees. Very occasionally the highs (treble) can sound a little harsh. What would you suggest to tame the treble a little bit?

Hi Erin, thanks for the great work for measurements and for sharing them. The database of measurements you are building is really helpful. I got a small piece of advice if you don't mind. I think you could try to set the scale of the graphs to be the same, so it will be easier for readers or even yourself to make direct comparison. (For example the CEA2034 on Linton was 40-90 dB, and its 45-95 dB on Super Denton.) Thank you again!

What has been glaringly obvious for maybe a century, which also is very prevalent here, is that people who want smaller speakers have to make compromises; and honestly, with the difference between these two sets of speakers in terms of size and performance, it doesn't make sense to save those few dollars, since the prices are closer together than their performance; maybe if you have a decent sub system to employ, and prefer that type setup preference, but the Super Denton should probably be cheaper anyway. I'd go with the Linton 85 any day between these two, whether I was using subs or not. To each his own I guess.

Good review as always, something that I cant understand is how the estimated In-Room response is quite good when the horizontal dispersion is asymmetrical and really uneven, I always though that the dispersion control played a important role in the estimated room response
@ErinsAudioCorner
@ErinsAudioCorner Месяц назад
It does. On my website I provide the following CTA-2034 excerpt: "In theory, with complete 360-degree anechoic data on a loudspeaker and sufficient acoustical and geometrical data on the listening room and its layout it would be possible to estimate with good precision what would be measured by an omnidirectional microphone located in the listening area of that room. By making some simplifying assumptions about the listening space, the data set described above permits a usefully accurate preview of how a given loudspeaker might perform in a typical domestic listening room. Obviously, there are no guarantees, because individual rooms can be acoustically aberrant. Sometimes rooms are excessively reflective (“live”) as happens in certain hot, humid climates, with certain styles of interior décor and in under-furnished rooms. Sometimes rooms are excessively “dead” as in other styles of décor and in some custom home theaters where acoustical treatment has been used excessively. This form of post processing is offered only as an estimate of what might happen in a domestic living space with carpet on the floor and a “normal” amount of seating, drapes and cabinetry. For these limited circumstances it has been found that a usefully accurate Predicted In-Room (PIR) amplitude response, also known as a “room curve” is obtained by a weighted average consisting of 12 % listening window, 44 % early reflections and 44 % sound power. At very high frequencies errors can creep in because of excessive absorption, microphone directivity, and room geometry. These discrepancies are not considered to be of great importance."

Erin, because the tweeters are offset, and there's a dropoff in horizontal dispersion (assumed to be on the edge furthest from the tweeter), the tweeters should be on the inside to minimize side wall reflections in addition to a little less fraction effect for the centered listener.

Erin, as you know, ALL things make a difference, especially in practice. if you were to do a polar plot (as was done decades ago in some magazines like AUDIO Magazine which had some true audio luminaries on staff such as Bacom King, who reviewed amplifiers for them) you might get a better picture. the whole idea of offsetting the tweeters was to reduce diffraction on one side. mirror imaging became commonplace when and aftermarket modifier did so to the Dahlquist DQ10 phased array loudspeakers. imaging and soundfield reproduction became a major focus of designers and reviewers following that innovation. even JBL mirrors their designs now such as in the new version of the L100, the origin of which was NOT.

Are these a mirrored pair? If so; Does swapping left and right make much difference?

I get the whole “ retro “ thing some manufacturers are heading down, albeit showing a lack of progress and playing on nostalgia, but doesn’t recessing the front baffle and all those super sharp edges cause edge defraction and affect performance? Modern speakers avoid this where ever possible, it wasn’t a thing back in the 70’s when a lot of these brands were dominant but has been for decades now. Anyway who knows, if it sounds good it sounds good I guess.and then there’s the price target which means squared off edgy boxes are the only affordable option.

That is why they are designed with the grilles fitted. The grille is shaped and chamfered to smooth the response.

Hi Erin, I would like to buy Wharfedale Linton 85 for play my music list from PlexAMP. Can you suggest me which would be best combination with Linton? I mean audio streamer or amplifier or audio streamer? Also there is AB classes and D. It’s so much information and I prefer to ask professional opinion. Budget 2000-3000$ if is possible and less I would be happy. Thank you 🙏🏻

Honestly, I'd get the NAD C 3050 with BluOS. I reviewed it here and loved it. Plus, it's a great aesthetic match to the Linton AND it comes with Dirac Live which will allow you to clean up the mess the room makes below 500Hz.

Did you try swapping them around having the tweeter on the inside and not the outside and vice versa and if so which did you prefer? Usually singers are good for especially women noticing bumps in the response you said 700 hertz but these days everything is pitch corrected at 440 hertz so it's difficult really and it sounds awful should stop doing it Studios they don't any more listen to music they just look at charts

Great review, I've got a dumb question, what's considered a small room or large room. With all the different floor plans or basement man caves, just curious on options of certain square footages. My man cave is around 500 square feet. It's feels smallish to me.

There's a breakdown according to THX specs which I typically reference when talking about sizes. It may not be the "best" definition for everyone but it's a baseline for comparison which is better than nothin'. www.thx.com/product/thx-certified-loudspeakers/

Because the CEA2034 shows it more readily and reliably. CSD can easily be manipulated to show just about whatever you want. And most people have zero idea how to set up the "floor" or the rise time (or other settings). I can look right at the CEA2034 and see resonances clearly that way.

Interesting that Wharfedale keeps bringing out speakers with so called updated versions of old speakers. Firstly, the Denton (and Linton) were both 2-way designs and VERY budget speakers. They were also basically the same thing, the Linton simply being in a larger box. I remember them being a popular sound but not very accurate. In fact, many peoples first jump into HiFi. I sold hundreds of them. The current version, I think it would probably be a better 2-way design. Three very similar sized drivers do not really make sense. Every time you add another driver, it becomes harder to integrate the separate drivers. Crossover becomes more complex. Driver placement is a compromise due to cabinet size. If I was designing the Denton, I would have used just 2 drivers. Like the original. Talking of original, the current company has nothing at all in common with Wharfedale. Not the staff, location, anything. Just the name. I might suggest the current speakers are probably better than the original. The original Wharfedale tweeters were quite poor really. They were the only speakers that we stocked replacement units for in the shop.
