Manufacturer's Description — Linn
A neat, integrated music system with custom style
Exquisite tailoring and precision engineering come together harmoniously in this stylish and customisable complete music system.
Series 5 System features speakers with intelligent Exakt electronics and on-board power amps, combined with hearty Isobarik bass. Paired up with Selekt DSM: System Hub, the Series 5 System renders all your streamed music in stunning quality, whilst also accommodating connection from all your audio and video sources.
Series 5 Loudspeakers
With custom-designed drive units and Isobarik bass system, Series 5 loudspeakers let you experience incredible musical accuracy with an energy that really lets the music flow.
Customise the look and place them where they fit best in your room - Space Optimisation+ takes care of optimising the sound for your room's characteristics and chosen speaker location.
Power and intelligence built-in
Linn's innovative integrated speakers have power and intelligence built-in. A specially designed module, suspension-mounted on the back of each speaker, houses the powerful amps and Exakt electronics that optimise performance. Now you don't need lots of hi-fi separates to make great sound.
Selekt DSM: System Hub
Browse your digital music library, stream online music and video, and experience movie and game soundtracks – all rendered in exceptional detail by a Selekt DSM: System Hub. There is the option between two distinct enclosure models – Classic Hub or the luxurious, higher-performance Edition Hub.
Selekt DSM: System Hub features a broad range of digital and analogue inputs, in order to receive, process and expertly deliver audio from any source imaginable. The high-performance, integrated, analogue-to-digital conversion stage accepts anything from turntables to CD players, and a host of digital connections allows connection from video streaming devices, games consoles and Blu-ray players – ensuring you get the best possible sound from anything you connect.
Zero loss and perfect phase
Selekt DSM: System Hub is configured for use in conjunction with Linn’s own integrated Exakt loudspeakers, or 3rd-party loudspeakers via a Linn Exaktbox. Selekt DSM: System Hub is the perfect choice for those seeking an all-Linn performance solution from the outset, incorporating the sonic benefits of our groundbreaking Exakt technology.
Featuring Linn’s industry-leading DS technology, and with up to 24bit/384kHz and DSD256 streaming capability, every last musical detail is transferred to the speakers using our proprietary, lossless Exakt Link connection.
