Line Magnetic quality

Here we go again…

 

Hej!

I have had my eyes on Line Magnetic Audio for some time, but a friend of mine says that I should stay away from hi-fi and hi-end made in china because they have bad luck when it comes to quality and that they sound bad.

I tell him that I have heard otherwise and that people really like the sound of the LM amplifiers.


So Line Magnetic owners, what do you say? Is he right or is he wrong?

 

By the way; has anyone been listening to LM34AI?

Maybe I’ll try to see if I can test a LM34IA at my home this weekend.

Anyone know if it’s a successor to the LM211A?


@factena I’m in Sweden🙂

Here's link to a Line Magnetic Europe  , it appears that the 341 & 211 are both available with the 341 generating a few more watts

I had a 518ia for about a year and a half, recently sold it. Build quality is excellent and so are the sonics. I wouldn't hesitate to own one again.

Mind me asking, why did you sell it?
