could anyone share the experience of LINN Classik? i find it in the 2 hand market($7500), is it worth?

Edwin ,

Classik ?

I also saw one in Tim chi 7/f ....

well ...

if your listern area is not too big ....

and want to hear " music " .....

I mean music first .....not big big hifi feel .

Classik is good ~

And classik is all-in-one machine ....

save money and place ...a ...

thanks makigoto,

The output of Classik is about 75W,
is it enough to push proac r8s(86db)?

But I think the amplifier section of classik is not as good as MF.32 or Primare A20, it may just be the class of NAD370 or so.

Edwin ,

yes ...Linn classi is small power amp ...

75 w for only 4 ohms ....

8 ohms is less than 40 w ....

if use it with Linn speakers ...it is no problem

cause all Linn speakers are 4 ohms ....

otherwise ....

you need to consider it .....

better check it serious .....

but ....Linn sound is really good for music ...

I think it can not say ...Linn = NAD ....

sorry ....

it's totally 2 things ~

Any comments on Linn Ikemi CD Player?

How much is it for a new one?

Is it suitable to use it with a tube amp?

Thank you very much.

kaiyinc ,

I think I can give you some idea of Ikemi ...

cause i own it for 1 yr before ....

it is 24 bit dac CD player ....

sound is very smooth and the background is very silient .....

and it is quiet detail but not too hifi ...

special for string , piano , human voice ...

it is best ~

New set need 23000 HK$ ....

used may be ....15000 so far ....

but not too easy to find .....

I saw one R33 fan selling it in used zone ...

you can go to see see ......

if no CD12 , Ikemi is best ~

haha..已經掃左部 Linn Classik 番屋企．
it sound　great. 好細絰，好有音樂感，舒服．
令到我聽不足24 小時，即決定放左原本的ｃｄ機同ｔｕｎｅｒ．．．．

本人有以下問題請教：
１．　唔聽時，是否需要熄主開關制？還是只需要轉去ｓｔａｎｄｂｙ　ｍｏｄｅ　就得?

2. 用ｌｉｎｎ 的 speaker cable是否好聲d? 如果買新的,要幾錢,有無二手

3. 可否加後級,我發覺用pre out 接去tube amp 時,無聲出.是否一定要用linn 後級先得?

4. 用咩電源線會好聲d, 請介紹又平又好的電源線

5. 用咩墊會好聲d?

thanks a lot!

Edwin ,

great !!!!

One more linn fans here ~

thanks to join us togther ~

I think it is no need to change any power cord , cause Linn didn't suggest to use other brand cable for their system ....

sound may change after change the power cord .

understand ?

And classik can use one more power amp ....for pushing bass , Classik ( itself ) for pushing tereble . Yes ....it can ~

Linn speakers cable ?

I think it is hard to find used one .....

it is not a popular name for hifi buyers .,,,,,

I think you can buy Linn K20 ( single wire ) from Linn show room . As I knew ....K20 is not a expensive model .....


well ....

I'm using full set of Linn .....

it is no need any underlead ....

no need la ....

let's it sing ......

Edwin ,


stand by mode is ok ~

my linn pre-amp and 2 power amps are stand by ...

never switch off ......

ok ka ~


And try line out to another poweramp ...


and I never use Classik before .....

hope i guess it right ~

thanks makigoto!!

Edwin ,

U are wellcome ~

any problem and any talk ....

MakiGoto,

I am using Linn AV5140, which is a 3-way speaker,
I am using NBS stringher-II(single wire~$1500) about 4 years,
Recently, I bought a CV-6 for biwire,
I want to know which connection is better,

1. just use CV-6 for bi-wire.
2. Use both to tri-wire.

Thanks

Bad news for me because the Kolektor have not control signal to power amp. That means the klout only on/off no stand by mode.~_~

MakiGoto
the agent tell me the when turn on the power amp, the "see" sound on the speakers is normal.
Same problem to you?

One more question is. I feel the power amp is hard to drive my speaker . (no energy feel)
Any wrong setting.

thank
