SELEKT DSM CARTRIDGE - 2Ch LINE OUT
Description:
- This is a cartridge with 2off line-level audio channels.
- Each channel has a XLR and a RCA output. BOTH can be used simultaneously. That is, both XLR and RCA socket are always live and do not affect each other's performance.
DAC - Stereo Digital to Analogue Convertor module options
This will allow you to select the audio performance of this cartridge.
| Option 1: | Standard (Level-1) |
| Option 2: | Katalyst (Level-2) |
| Option 3: | Organik (Level-3) |
Line Output:
| RCA: | |||
| Output Level: | 2V rms @volume 80 | ||
| Output Impedance: | 300Ω |
| XLR | |||
| Output Level: | 4V rms @volume 80 | ||
| Output Impedance: | 600Ω |
Note:
- DAC's are sold seperately and ONE DAC module MUST be fitted to the the cartridge to get audio from this cartridge.
- Different DAC's modules can be used with each Selekt Cartridge.
- Either
- Standard (Level-1) Stereo DAC is the standard DAC.
- or
- Katalyst (Level-2) Stereo DAC use the higher specification Katalyst DAC Architecture
- or
- Organik (Level-3) Stereo or Mono DAC use the higher specification Organik DAC Architecture
- Either
- Only one type of DAC module can be installed in each cartridge.
- That is, You CANNOT have a Standard and a Katalyst DAC module installed in the same Line-level, Power-amplifier or Hybrid 1.1 catridge at the same time.
- These Standard and Katalyst DAC modules are interchangeable in different cartridges in the same Selekt DSM.
- However Organik DAC modules CANNOT be used with Standard and Katalyst DAC modules in different cartridges, in the same Selekt DSM
- The Organik MONO DACs can ONLY be used in the Mono Line Out Cartridge
- You CANNOT mix Organik Stereo cartridges with Organik Mono Line Out Cartridges
- Warning: Changing Selekt Cartidge(s) or Module(s).
-
- Applies to: All Selekt DSM variants
- To reduce the risk of damage to your Selekt DSM:
- The Selekt DSM MUST be disconnected from Mains power supply by BEFORE any cartridge(s) or module(s) are removed/Inserted.
SELEKT DSM CARTRIDGE - POWER OUT
Description:
- This is a module with 2off Class-D Power Amplifier channels
- Each channel uses 4mm/Banana/binding post terminals
DAC - Stereo Digital to Analogue Convertor module options
This will allow you to select the audio performance of this cartridge.
| Option 1: | Standard (Level-1) |
| Option 2: | Katalyst (Level-2) |
| Option 3: | Organik (Level-3) |
Power Amplifier Output:
- Bridged Class-D amplifier with post-filter feedback using 4mm/Banana/binding post terminals.
| Max output power: |
|||
| 100W/channel into 4Ω load, | |||
| 50W / channel into 8Ω load | |||
| THD+N: | 0.001% | ||
| Dynamic Range | 110dB | ||
| Gain: | 20dB |
Note:
- An upgrade to the Selekt Power supply may be requried to use any new modules.
- Power Amplifier outputs: These are CLASS-D amplifier outputs and speakers should ONLY be connected/disconnected when the product in is Sleep state or powered OFF.
- Some Electrostatic speakers may require a modification to work with Linn Class-D amplifier. Please refer to the speaker manufacturers website for information.
- The Selekt power amplfiers have a slightly lower gain than other Linn power amplifiers, (original Majik/Akurate..). If you are going to Bi-Amp a pair of speakers then we would recommend either ALL Selekt Power amplifier cartridges or ALL Selekt Line level cartridges with external amplifiers.
- DAC's are sold seperately and ONE DAC module MUST be fitted to the the cartridge to get audio from this cartridge.
- Different DAC's modules can be used with each Selekt Cartridge.
- Either
- Standard (Level-1) Stereo DAC is the standard DAC.
- or
- Katalyst (Level-2) Stereo DAC use the higher specification Katalyst DAC Architecture
- or
- Organik (Level-3) Stereo or Mono DAC use the higher specification Organik DAC Architecture

- These Standard and Katalyst DAC modules are interchangeable in different cartridges in the same Selekt DSM.
- However Organik DAC modules CANNOT be used with Standard and Katalyst DAC modules in different cartridges, in the same Selekt DSM
- The Organik MONO DACs can ONLY be used in the Mono Line Out Cartridge
- You CANNOT mix Organik Stereo cartridges with Organik Mono Line Out Cartridges
- Warning: Changing Selekt Cartidge(s) or Module(s).

- Applies to: All Selekt DSM variants
- To reduce the risk of damage to your Selekt DSM:
- The Selekt DSM MUST be disconnected from Mains power supply by BEFORE any cartridge(s) or module(s) are removed/Inserted.
SELEKT DSM CARTRIDGE - 1.1 ( Hybrid power amp / subwoofer line)
Description:
- This is a module with:
- single line-level audio channel with 2off RCA sockets sharing the same single feed. (e.g. Subwoofer)
- and
- single Class-D Power Amplifier channel with 4mm/Banana/Binding post terminals. (e.g.Centre channel speaker)
- This is designed to work with Selekt Power Amplifer cartridges.

Linn Surround Module
- This is a hardware upgrade for some Linn DS/DSM products to allow Surround options on external Linn DS/DSM inputs
- Click HERE to view the Specifications of the Linn Surround Module
Note:
- After this module has been installed please make sure that you are using the HDMI OUT on the Selekt-HDMI-Switch module and not the socket marked HDMI-ARC.
- This may require a new power supply to be installed in your Selekt DSM. This will be checked at the time of ordering the Selekt HDMI switching module by your Linn Retailer
- After this module has been installed please make sure that you are using the HDMI OUT on the Selekt-HDMI-Switch module and not the socket marked HDMI-ARC.
