Handover this morning in Båstad ...

It was an absolute pleasure to hand over a seven zone LINN DS installation to a very satisfied family in Båstad this morning. The project comprises a main summer house with five zones and a large separate summer house for their teenage Sons, comprising two zones.

The family decided to keep the character and shell of the beautiful old house but completely rebuilt the interior, rebuilding with an amazing choice of materials and the latest technology. The result is the 'warmth' you only get from an old house but with the comfort of the best available materials and technology. 

Wonderful ... an inspirational result! 50mm by 400mm solid Douglas pine floors, whitewashed and only full  lengths of up to 10m ... WAL!


We were asked to provide fantastic sound but the electronics themselves:

''should not be seen at all and all speakers should be built in and customised to the exact colour choices used in the home''

The family wanted to stream high definition music and film, play YouTube & Spotify direct from their ipad to their LINN systems and with the ability to have perfect synchronised party mode or play seperate music in separate rooms.

''Everything with wireless control from iPad! ''

''It should be user friendly and just work without any IT  knowledge''

We installed their favourite internet radio stations, configured the LINN products and Network for optimum stability and performance and supplied an automated server for Ripping Blueray, DVD &CD (flac). Remote access to the Network means we don't have to physically visit the premise to update or make changes.

''It should be a great sound but to a reasonable budget''


LINN Sekrit DSI  systems were used in TV areas and Sneaky DS used in smaller areas where no physical inputs were required.

An outdoor LINN system and bathrooms used Watertight LINN Diskreet speakers and LINN Kustom speakers were used in the other zones.

In the larger rooms we used the fantastic BR27 inbuilt base reinforcement speakers (sub). Aesthetics were high priority so all speakers were installed in the ceilings and delivered in the exact colour of the surfaces.

The LINN installation ''.. does exactly what you said it would do and exactly what I wanted it to do''

''SOUNDS FANTASTIC''

My first impression of LINN's NEW Akubarik's

Firstly I am all in favour of compact systems so for me it's a great advantage that they are fully active. Technical information you can get from the designer on the following video link http://vimeo.com/search?q=akubarik I can pick a few points about the design. I don't like blue lights ... I'd hoped it would be smaller to fit more of my customers that have smaller rooms and apartments with neighbours. But actualythey look great, very tidy indeed. A good start and very interesting but how do they perform? The obvious reference systems are Akurate 242 Aktiv with LINN Akurate amps or Klimax 350A's reference speakers. Straight off the Akurate 242's can't compete on the bottom end. The Akubariks deliver controlled base no matter the volume. Whether the 3k array performs better than on aktive 242, I don't know but it's probably quite similar. It is very good. It's all very good and well balanced. At no point did I experience any issues with frequ...

Linn Katalyst ... New DAC architecture - NEW KLIMAX DS :)

“Shows a clean pair of heels to some of audio’s upper echelon with ease. It might even be the best of all of them … profoundly recommended."   Hi-Fi+ Magazine Our new Katalyst DAC Architecture performs digital-to-analogue conversion with greater precision than ever. Katalyst takes an unprecedented level of control over the critical elements that lie at the heart of the analogue signal’s creation; offering improved Data Optimisation, superior Master Clock, independent Power Supplies, a new ultra-low distortion Output Driver and crucially, for the first time, a high-stability input Reference Level. The latter is vitally important because, at the point of creation, the analogue audio signal is particularly vulnerable even to miniscule variations in the Reference Level, which cause irreversible damage. Katalyst’s high-stability input Reference Level eliminates variations during analogue signal creation, giving you a deeper insight into your music. Read more ......
