Spotify Connect

Click for more....

Spotify Connect can now be used on Linn products using firmware Davaar59 (Aug 2017) or later firmware. (That is, if your Linn DS/DSM has had a software update after Aug 2017 then you can use Spotify connect)

This allows you to select and play your Spotify music on your Linn DS/DSM players and use the internal volume control on the Linn DS/DSM.

To connect your Spotify account to the Linn DS/DSM :

On your control device, iPad/Android/PC/MAC etc, connect to the same computer network as your Linn DS/DSM
Start your Spotify app, (if it is already open then close the App, wait a few seconds, and open the App)
Now check the Spotify Speakers icon to find your Linn DS. (In some cases you may have to power cycle your Linn DS/DSM before this is seen)
Select your Linn product, and you can now play to the Linn DS/DSM from the Spotify account and control the Linn DS/DSM volume.

This is web controlled and if your Linn DS/DSM has already been paired with your Spotify account you will be able to control even if you are not on the same ethernet network.(So be careful that if you accidentally select the Linn DS/DSM as a Spotify speaker and put the volume up high, and you are not at home)

Check FAQ Spotify Connect for more information.

September 2025:We do intend to support Spotify Lossless:
This requires non-trivial firmware changes, also involving third-parties, so we don't have fixed timescales for the work completing.

Future Notes:

Spotify does NOT support lossless for all Linn hardware variants; Linn DS/DSM variants, which were launched before the Selekt DSM (in 2018), cannot be updated to Spotify lossless due to hardware limitations. However, they will still support Spotify Connect.

(Click HERE for a list of the product groups before and after 2018 variants.)

If you have a Linn DS/DSM that supports Spotify Lossless, this will still Songcast/share the Spotify lossless to ANY other Linn DS/DSM

WiiM solution to Spotify Lossless, Amazon Music, (also ChromeCast, Tidal Connect...)

Currently, a solution for Spotify lossless on the Linn DSM's, or Amazon Music for older products, you can use a WiiM media streamer .

This can also be used for other unsupported services such as CHROMECAST, Tidal Connect..., but check if your WiiM variant supports your service first WiiM Support .

This setup will play at the quality of your Linn DSM – playback uses the Linn DSM’s audio clock, meaning that jitter from the source device’s clock will be removed.

Note: This will ONLY work with Linn DSM, not a Linn DS.

Plug a TOSLINK optical cable from the WiiM media streamer SPDIF OUT digital output directly into a Linn DSM TOSLINK digital input, and use the superior audio DAC of the Linn DSM. This will give you the full Spotify lossless, and any other WiiM supported streaming services into the Linn DSM.

1. On the WiiM control app, go into Devices, select your WiiM and the select the gear cog on the bottom right, this will bring you into the WiiM setup page.

set to "Sample rate:" 192kHz & Bit depth: 24bit for newer products

or "Sample rate:" 96kHz & Bit depth: 24bit on earlier products

b) .Audio Output:

i) Change to Optical Out
