No not heard them yet - but looked at some reviews. Generally prefer the sound of modern speakers but like the retro looks. I listen to loads of genres so need some good all rounders.
Think I will replace my Amp and speakers at the same time to matchy matchy so
will audition through my Technics SL1200GR.
TheButchersDog-
Definitely demo them. I mean... definitely try to demo anything you're buying, obviously, but these ones just weren't great for me. Definitely not all rounders IMO. I listened to a multitude of genres and the only stuff I listened to that was remotely engaging was classic rock. And the Denton's were even more dull.

Have you heard them? I have. Would not recommend. Thoroughly average speaker for the money IMO. You can do better for sure. But they do look the business on the (expensive) stands.
Edit: I should add: I heard them in a good listening room, with a Planar 2 and a Rega Brio. So, nice kit. The lintons were very shouty while also being a bit slow IMO. If you’re gonna listen exclusively to 60s/70s rock, they could be decent for you. But if you have any real variety in your listening habits, they might not be good for you.
