As a long-standing Linn owner (25 years+) I'd just like to say: 1) I'm sure the DS sounds great - all the other Linn Klimax stuff I've heards sounds great - wish I could afford it. 2) I had a CD12 which was one of the greatest CD players ever made (IMHO) - I sold it and use an SB3+MF Dac. I prefer the sound - it makes a nice warm cuddly synergy with the rest (all Linn) of my system. There is no way I would have swapped a £12k player for about £1.5k's worth of kit if I didn't prefer the sound...but that is a very personal thing of course.
Suppose I am now in the "deaf and mad" camp...ho hum. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal... ...SB3+TACT+Altmann+MF DACXV3/Linn tri-amped Aktiv 5.1 system and some very expensive cables ;o) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38815
