  4. Linn Organik DAC Upgrade for Akubarik Loudspeakers

    Linn Organik DAC Upgrade for Akubarik Loudspeakers

    We have been waxing lyrical about Linn’s Organik DAC architecture since it debuted in the sublime next-generation Klimax DSM in 2021.

     

    Organik elevates audio performance to breathtaking levels. And now, Linn Akubarik owners can reach those heights too, with a retrofittable Organik DAC upgrade.

    This is a Linn factory upgrade: your Akubarik speaker modules are returned to Linn HQ. We will securely remove, transport and re-install them once Linn has worked its ‘majik’, complete with a new, 5-year Linn warranty on the modules and drive units.

     

    Et voila, your Akubariks are Organik and trust us, you are in for a treat!

     

    Organik DAC upgrade is £7,000 and is for Exakt Integrated Akubariks only. 

     

    If you have Aktiv, non-Exakt Akubariks, there is a limited opportunity to upgrade directly to Organik Exakt, after which Aktiv to Exakt upgrade will no longer be available.

     

     

    Whilst this is a new opportunity, this major upgrade is already available for other Linn products, namely:

  7. The Ultimate Trade-In for the Ultimate Streamer

    The Ultimate Trade-In for the Ultimate Streamer

    Here is a serious helping hand from Linn to own a reference Klimax DSM digital music streamer...

    Get at least £5000 off a new Klimax DSM (Audio or AV variant) by trading in any piece of HiFi/AV equipment. Yes, anything. No matter how old, how small, even how operational – or not, as the case may be.

     

    And that’s just for starters. Peter Tyson will match Linn’s generosity by adding our own part exchange value for your trade-in. Which could mean a saving considerably higher than £5000. If you have an older style Klimax or other Linn product for example, you will receive significantly more discount. Even if you have nothing to part exchange, we can help!

    For anyone considering purchasing Linn’s flagship digital source, this is an opportunity not to be missed. Here’s just some of the lavish praise heaped on Klimax DSM since launch:

     

    “Let’s not mince words; this is the best streaming audio component I’ve ever reviewed”

    Alan Sircom, Hi-fi+

     

    “It is a component that brings recorded music to another
