Description

Description Freakuence!
Linn streamers, yes, actually ahead of their time. Linn is known for its precision in processing digital signals, thanks to their special expertise. This Akurate goes up to 24-bit/192 kHz and has perfect timing. Very dynamic, very clean, very Linn. And the support from Linn seems like forever!
Retail price: 5117.00
General description
This device provides access to digital music over a network with no moving parts, eliminating mechanical noise. It converts digital music formats such as WAV, FLAC and MP3 to high-quality analog sound. It is compatible with streaming services such as Tidal and Qobuz, and supports music up to 24-bit/192 kHz. The system is easily controlled via an app and can be seamlessly integrated with external speakers using Exakt technology. Furthermore, the Dynamik power supply ensures a stable power supply and is controlled via an intu?tive interface for an optimal user experience. The system offers a wide range of connection options for both digital and analog sources.
Background information
The Linn Akurate DS/0 is designed according to Linn’s philosophy of minimal signal loss. The streamer incorporates a precision clock and carefully selected DAC components for optimal timing and detail reproduction. All critical internal connections are short and direct for minimal interference.
Brand history
Linn was founded in 1973 by Ivor Tiefenbrun. It started with the production of the Sondek LP12, a turntable that was continuously improved in the following years. One of the first innovations was the introduction of an external power supply, the Valhalla, and other important developments followed later, such as the introduction of the Lingo power supply system in 1990. In 1986, Linn released the Troika cartridge, which provided improved signal reproduction. In the 1990s, Linn expanded its offerings to include digital products, such as the Karik/Numerik CD player, and launched the Knekt multiroom system in 1994. Linn builds almost everything in-house.

Reviews & awards | Linn Akurate DS/0

Reviews:


  • TechRadar

    highlights the versatility and high quality of the Linn Akurate DS/0 as a digital source component. The unit produces hardly any heat and features balanced inputs and outputs. The built-in MM/MC phono preamplifier and wide, smooth high-frequency dispersion contribute to excellent sound reproduction. While overall performance is impressive, the sound may appear slightly "thin" to some listeners, and the lower midrange and bass response is somewhat limited.


  • Dagogo

    highlights the impressive sound quality of the Linn Akurate DS/0, especially when playing hi-res tracks. The reproduction of the recording environment is so accurate that it feels like one is present at the performance. This contributes to a holographic sound experience, where the placement of instruments and the depth of the soundstage are remarkable. In addition, the timbre of instruments, the emotion of the performers and the dynamics of the music are reproduced with great precision.


  • What Hi-Fi?

    highlights the 24-bit/192kHz capability of the Linn Akurate DS/0, resulting in a detailed and balanced sound. The unit also performs well when streaming Internet radio. However, the lack of USB inputs and wireless networking capabilities may be a limitation for some users.

    CD

    The Compact Disc (CD), like most inventions, did not appear out of thin air. After the invention of the laser in 1958, the first patent for optically readable disks was filed in 1961. The first digital video records were introduced in 1972. After a flop by Philips, the manufacturer, together with Sony, released the first CD in 1979. We do not know what it contained, but in 1982 the first CD was released for the market, it was the album Visitors by ABBA. In this year the first player became available and so began the elimination of the LP from the market. Many have literally thrown their LPs in the trash… we still see some visitors being disappointed when they tell us this. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen.
