Linn and its streamers: always good. Point! The Majik is their entry level, but plays at a much higher level than, say, the Bluesound. Very detailed, with a deep and wide stage. What stands out is that huge space around everything. By being able to input the size of the room, and the speakers you have, it lifts the average set. Tidal, Spotify, Qubuz, etc. No problem with the Linn app. Welcome for a demonstration!

The Linn Majik DS/0 is a network player designed and built in Scotland by Linn Products. It is part of the Majik series and uses Linn's proprietary Klimax-level DAC technology. The unit uses carefully selected components, with internally balanced circuits for minimal interference. The solid aluminum housing shields electromagnetic noise. Linn develops and manufactures almost all components in-house in Scotland according to their "source-first" philosophy.
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.
