    Linn AV equipment...

    Hi, audio buffs.

    I use a two-channel Linn integrated amp for my stereo audio needs. I'm moving towards satellite TV and some kind of 42" or 50" TV. I'm also going to replace my Denon 3300 DVD player because that's all it will play - it won't even play a burnt CD. If I decide to try 5.1 sound, I'll need to replace my Linn amp as well. I was thinking along the lines of some kind of Pioneer Elite until my local audio guy started up-selling me on a Linn Classik Movie player which very neatly integrates a disc player, amp, and radio tuner.

    Does anyone have any comments on this kind of Linn product? Thanks,

    Martyn

      I think stereophile did a review or preview on that system (nice sound) awhile back cant remember the issue number.

      Linn makes very good products as far the reviews go.

          For it's size the Linn Classik make big noises.... I've always like it. There is a new version just on the market now - the Classik Movie Di. Not heard it yet tho'. There is also a similar product available from Naim - the nVi. I've heard good reports about it and the option of DVI output. Not much more expensive than the Linn. I don't believe the Linn offers DVI(?). Which is the drawback of all in one boxes when it's time to upgrade. Rotel have a couple of all in one products also.

              Got my Bravo D1 running last night. Those of you with an HTPC can skip this thread, or read it and say to yourself "well duh!" (Jon ).

              Did not have audio hooked up, as I used a 2 meter DVI cable to hook this to my PJ (WXGA LCD for those scoring at home, on a 10' diagonal...

              Linn Electronics with 803D's
              by Gump
              In my seemingly endless search for electronics to run my 803D's, I was able to demo some Linn Equipment over the last few days. My stereo salesman dropped off a brand new Linn Unidisk SC and Chakra 3200 amp for my front speakers (803D's and HTM2D), as well as a 2100 for the surrounds, on Sunday and...

              Linn unidisk SC with linn5125 power amp
              by Andy Oxon
              Anyone heard this or own it, comments greatly appriciated. I am about to purchase a AV processor and power amp and was looking at the Arcam AV8/P7 combo and the Rotel 1098. I have had a very brief demo of the Linn but wanted to hear a few other reviews before listening to it again with a home demo....

              Linn Akurate 252 vs B&W 802D?
              by fauzigarib
              Hey there,

              I know I know... another one of those xyz vs. B&W threads, but there's a catch to this one.

              In my contemplating a new 2 channel system, and having narrowed it down to B&W's 802D, I started asking my cousin, who's an audio dealer in Dubai for electronics....
