Linn 360 Exakt FAQ's


Why use different types of amplifier in 360 Integrated Exakt?

The design of each amplifier in 360 is tailored to the requirements of its associated drive unit.
The 360 Array is driven by all-new Linn designed Class-AB amplifiers with Adaptive Bias Control. This gives the best performance over the frequency range of these drive units. Even within the 360 array the amplifiers are tailored to each drive unit. The upper-bass is a bridged design, whereas the midrange and tweeter are single-ended, and the tweeter amplifier is further ‘tuned’ to ensure very low distortion up to the very highest audio frequencies improving the signal to noise level by around 15 dB compared to the prior art.
The bass system uses the new Linn Power DAC architecture to achieve low distortion at high power whilst also being very efficient. This allows the bass system to play deeper and louder for longer.

What are the integrated amplifier ratings?

Each Linn Power DAC is easily capable of delivering 500 Watts into a four ohm load.
The Adaptive Bias Control amplifiers for the midrange and tweeter are able to deliver 150 Watts into a four ohm load.
The bridged Adaptive Bias Control amplifier for the upper bass is able to deliver 300 Watts into a four ohm load.
