Kenpo, Thanks for the response. I posted my question so long ago I gave up and stopped looking. In the meantime, I did purchase the Keltic speakers, which I have not set up yet. I am having my 5140's and 5120 modified to active mode ( I ended up purchasing eight Klout amps to power everything -- yikes!) Luckily I got everything used. I also came across a used Linn 5103 processor that I purchased, so I am going with an all-Linn system. I'll look into the Bell Canto DAC-1. I'm also looking at an Ikemi CDP. What do you use for interconnects and speaker wire?. Thanks again.
Linn Keltic speakers
I am considering an "upgrade" from Linn 5140 for my main speakers to Linn Keltics. Any experience with these speakers? I once heard a system at a show with Keltics for the mains and 5140 for the rear surrounds and many people expressed that they thought the sound was the best in the show. I use a Yamaha 3090 for the processor ( soon to be upgraded to Meridian 561) and Adcom 5802 amps. If I go with the Keltics I will power them with Linn Klout amps in active mode.
