Why Linn Klimax DSM?
Linn's Klimax DSM is a network streamer that provides audio perfection, it is designed with extreme attention to detail, inside and out, to maximise performance in every way. The beating heart of Linn's Klimax DSM Streamer is the groundbreaking Organik DAC which sets a new benchmark in music streaming.
Linn's Organik DAC
The Orgaink DAC combines FPGA processing with a discrete conversion stage, which allows us to precisely control every stage of the DAC process. It offers significantly lower noise and distortion levels, and achieves the most accurate re-creation of the original music signal.
Klimax DSM Design
The Klimax DSM has a custom-designed enclosure that provides acoustic isolation. It's machined from solid, special grade aluminium and is fitted with elegant features that allow it to look classy and sleek. The front screen acts like a mirror, which displays key information when active, but becomes invisible when not in use.
A stylish dial is fitted on the top made from the highest quality materials, such as a turned brass bearing and a photo etched stainless steel surround, which houses each of the 100 status lights.
Klimax DSM Connections
Linn's Klimax DSM has a high performance, lower distortion ADC design, which has its own circuit board with dedicated power supply to give your connected analogue sources an extra boost.
The Klimax DSM streamer features many connections including Exakt Link ports for direct connection to an LP12 with Urika II, a USB input for connection to a computer, built-in wireless connectivity and additional HDMI inputs and eARC (AV variant only).
