Linn Classik cd/tuner/ integrated amplifier


All, anyone have any experience with this unit?  If so, thoughts/feedback?  I am looking at one for a bedroom set-up.......thanks!

I owned one for a few years.  For a one box it is decent.  They claim 75 watts, but that is fully.  Split that in half per channel.  You need run bananas only.  My CD tray needed some attention after I shipped it home from a contract doubled boxed inside the original box, so don't jostle it a lot.

For cheap and limited use, it's a go.  Not particularly detailed.  No broad soundstage.  Not overly dynamic.  Great for limited space.  I would run efficient monitors with it.

Best of success on your search.

37-38 wpc at 4ohms. It was cool 20 years ago, its marginal by todays standards. Toslink in was neat at the time…I can only imagine the jitter.

Well I don't know what that one guy's talking about but he might just be looking at the manual, but stereo file tested it at over 100 W into 8 ohms per channel, they even went further and said they got almost 170 into 2 ohms

 

If you don't believe me just look up the stereophile review and look up the measurements
