The unit has also been recently upgraded with the brand new Dynamik Power Supply (worth £450).
KEY FEATURES INCLUDE
Klimax Kontrol is Linns reference quality stereo preamplifier. The machined-from-solid clamshell construction of the Klimax casework is a beautiful and unique design that screens, protects and stabilises the internal electronics.
Inside there are four circuit boards, one an autoranging Switch Mode Power Supply which provides silent power to the unique audio circuit board. The display and control boards are separated from the audio board, which has been updated for this new version.
With the implementation of a new dual mono volume control topology which separates control of the left and right channels, the updated Klimax Kontrol benefits from further reduced harmonic distortion and an even lower noise floor than its predecessor.
Klimax Kontrol features balanced and unbalanced audio inputs and outputs, allowing you to choose the optimum connection method for your system. Klimax Kontrol features Knekt technology which means you can also enjoy music throughout your home as part of a Linn Knekt multi-room system Klimax Kontrol is an essential component in the Linn Klimax system - the ultimate manifestation of precision engineered music reproduction, performance and beauty.
