Description

With Klimax Solo 800, Linn has created a superior-performance mono amplifier which can drive any given speaker optimally – under any conditions.

To achieve this, their electronic engineers returned to first principles with their crosshairs trained on ‘consistency’ and ‘accuracy’ – because consistency and accuracy are key to pure, unadulterated, power amp performance.

Klimax Solo 800 features novel and original Linn technologies which combine to produce staggeringly low distortion measurements, with superb signal-to-noise ratio and incredible efficiency.

In a normal setup, one hears the accumulation of interactions between speaker and amp – a combination of non-ideal characteristics which result in artefacts heard in the music. Linn’s focus on relentless minimisation of distortion within the amp, and unilaterally consistent output, means that Klimax Solo 800 introduces negligible harmonics or background noise to the music signal.

Klimax Solo 800 as a whole is the epitome of efficient, consistent, and accurate circuitry design.

Linn’s unique combination of digital and analogue expertise has allowed them to optimise and linearise every internal stage of the amplifier to consistently produce exceedingly high performance.
