Linn

Linn has made music systems in Glasgow, Scotland since the early 1970s, starting with the Sondek LP12 turntable — a deck that is still built today and can be upgraded part by part rather than replaced. Linn also pioneered network music streaming with its DS players, now the Selekt, Majik, Akurate and Klimax DSM ranges.

The Sound Store carries the current Linn range in Auckland, from Majik LP12 and Selekt LP12 turntables to Majik DSM, Selekt DSM and Klimax DSM streamers, Linn 119 and 150 loudspeakers, and every LP12 upgrade part in between.

Buying guide & FAQs

Choosing a Linn system

  • Vinyl first: start with an LP12 at the level that suits your budget, then upgrade the power supply, subchassis, tonearm, cartridge or plinth over time. See our Linn LP12 upgrade path guide.
  • Streaming first: Majik DSM is an all-in-one streamer and amplifier; Selekt DSM is modular, so you can add a better DAC or amplifier card later; Klimax DSM is Linn’s reference streamer.
  • Room optimisation: Linn Space Optimisation adjusts the system to your room’s dimensions and speaker positions.
