Linn

Ivor Tiefenbrun founded Linn in Glasgow in 1973 with a single product, the Sondek LP12 turntable, and it's still in production, with over 50 retrofittable upgrades available for the earliest decks. Today Linn hand-builds streamers, amps, and speakers at its Waterfoot factory, where the engineer who assembles your unit signs it. Space Optimisation software corrects for your room's acoustics. The Klimax DSM streamer and Solo 800 amplifier sit at the top of the range. Buy once, upgrade for decades.
