Best VALUE Linn amp for 5103 PreAmp


Picked up a Linn 5103 System Controller for a great price. Looking for a great VALUE Linn amp to match with it.

What are the best options for a used Linn Amp right now? If you can share both 2 channel and Multi-channel options, I would be greatly appreciative.

I have a 2 channel Tube setup with Cary, Esoteric and Spendor SP-1's right now. Thinking of trying a Linn setup on the cheap.

I'd like to keep the cost below $1,000 - but I am not averse to a much cheaper amp in the older Linn line if it is solid.

Thanks in advance for your help! Gerard

I got rid of Linn when I bought Cary. Old system was Cary amp and pre both tubes, Linn Kudos, Mimik II, Numerik, Majik 140's. Still have a very nice Sondek 12 TT. Replaced the Linn sources with Magnum Dynalab tube, Moon Equinox SE, Lipinski speakers. The only thing that may have a chance is running Linn amps to aktiv Linn speakers. Happy listening.
