I recently helped friends buy a used LINN Classik for a bedroom system. They added a pair of small Monitor Audio floorstanders, the 5i, and they are thrilled with the sound and the unobtrusive look of the Classik. They've almost abandoned listening to their more expensive living room system. The total price of the new system was less than $1,500 and I have to admit it compares pretty favorably with my system which cost several times that.
