Linn Say….
Over thirty years ago Linn was born out of a simple truth: the more accurately a system reproduces sound, the greater the impact it will have on the listener.
The Akurate range of power amplifiers have been designed to offer true flexibility when building or upgrading a stereo or multi-channel system. All Akurate amplifiers feature Linn’s proprietary Chakra technology, first used in the flagship Klimax 500 Twin power amplifier, and are available with either phono or balanced connections. Go Aktiv for the best possible sound from your Linn system!
The Akurate power amplifier is the perfect partner for Linn’s Akurate CD player and Akurate Kontrol pre-amplifier.
Add the Akurate Tuner and Akurate loudspeakers for a complete Akurate System and experience the exceptional sound quality delivered by this dedicated music system.
Silent, cool-running and highly efficient, Akurate amplifiers can effortlessly power even the most demanding music, delivering loud, complex passages and quiet interludes with equal precision.
Two, three, or four channel, and balanced or unbalanced models of this high quality, distortion-free amplifier are available, with each featuring our low-noise Dynamik power supply and the 200W version of our patented Chakra amplification technology. So whatever the system set-up – be that stereo, multi-channel or multi-amp – you can enjoy high quality, distortion-free and responsive amplification.
Patented amp technology combines the speed and precision of monolithic chip with the robustness and smoothness of bi-polar transistors.
Chakra constantly adapts by using a monolithic at low currents and bi-polar transistors at higher levels. It’s a unique approach to transition between these technologies, guaranteeing precisely-controlled clean, silent power at all listening levels.
We have been creating our own switch-mode power supplies for decades – to generate stable, low noise power in a compact, cool-running package. This electrical cleanliness is critical to amplifier performance.
Dynamik ensures superb isolation from mains-borne noise, formidable power and responsiveness; clearly outperforming bulky and noisy traditional power supplies.
All Linn power amps are designed to be efficient even when not in use. Auto signal-sensing detects the presence of an audio signal and minimises power consumption by reverting to sleep mode when inactive, while fault detection and protection mechanisms help safeguard your system against short circuit or excessive load damage.
