General Product installation

Please read the following carefully before installing the unit in your system – your unit may need to be reconfigured by your Linn retailer.

For further assistance, try our customer support page

General Speaker installation

We recommend that your Linn loudspeakers are unpacked, installed and adjusted by an authorised Linn retailer. To get the best from your Linn loudspeakers, it is important that they are positioned and levelled correctly.

Please note, in order to achieve the very best from your Linn loudspeakers, some adjustment may be required after positioning, levelling and connecting. See the Fine adjustment section.

Subwoofer use in a Linn DS/DSM system

Exaktbox Sub

The Exaktbox Sub can only be used with Exakt speakers/Exaktbox(es).
If you only have speakers connected via analogue connections to the Linn DS/DS and try and also use the Exaktbox sub Config will only allow you to setup Space Optimisation+ on the Exaktbox Sub. You will not be able to use Space Optimisation on the analogue outputs with an Exaktbox and or Exakt speaker connected.

Non Exakt system

In Space Optimisation > Room Setup you can add "Additional Subwoofers"
This will allow you to add subwoofers into the Room and position them within the room. You can then Optimise and adjust the Room modes accordingly.

Note:
1 All these Analogue outputs are Line level or Volume control with the Konfig - Volume Control option
2 Output is either volume controlled or OFF
3 Kiko has Aktiv speaker output, this is a separate power amplifier per speaker drive (2off driver units per Kiko speaker) giving a total of 50W per channel
4 The Sekrit DSM can be configured as bridge or single ended. This can drive, in stereo with common volume control, either 4off speakers with 33W/4R RMS power each or 2off speakers with 50W/8R RMS each.
5 For use with Basik3/Basik3-IR Room Control Units
6 One input can be configured for use with Turntable.

Line Level / Moving Magnet [Majik-factory set] / Moving Coil (Akurate-Factory set]) refer to dealer for options

7 The Sneaky DSM can be only configured as single ended. This can drive, in stereo with common volume control, either 4off speakers with 33W RMS power each,(for Bi-Amping), or 2off speakers with 33W RMS each.
8 Maximum input sample rate 96KHz (Stereo PCM)
9 Maximum output sample rate 192KHz (Stereo PCM)(However the official specification for TOSLINK/SPDIF is 96kHz so check your digital receiver can take up to 192K data stream)
11 PRE-OUT can be make POWER Amplfier input for use as additional amplifier for ExaktBoxes. Konfigurable in Konfig
12 Exakt-Link

  • Exakt-Link output are delayed by approx 45mS compared to Analogue/Toslink/SPDIF outputs.
  • When the volume control is disabled, the Exakt-link sockets are disabled
  • Exakt-Link can also be used as an input with products such as the Urika II

13 Can be configured in Konfig application to change the Default SPDIF Input a SPDIF output
14 This can change depending on the Module(s) installed in the Selekt DSM
