PC and isolation device for Linn Classik


Hi everyone. I'm shopping around for a power cord and isolation devices for a Linn Classik (hooked up to a pair of Linn Keilidhs w/ Linn K20 speaker cables). Any suggestions? I'd be most interested in hearing from those who own or have owned a Linn Classik. What kind of PCs and/or isolation devices you've used it with and what were the results. Thanks for your input.

Hi,

I honestly don't believe you will get much bang for the buck with the power cord. If the Classic has the Brilliant Power Supply like my Linn separates then it's a waste of money for sure. I don't know about isolation since I don't have a CDP. FWIW, save your money and go Aktiv with the Keilidhs. You won't be disappointed. Contact me directly if you would like to discuss this further.

Hi, I own two Classik-K. For isolation I use Vibrapod Model
#2 isolation feet. For power cord I use PS Audio Prelude power cord. The IEC connector fit tight on the unit, they do
make a change (Classik use a toroidal power supply). Cables
with the Wattagate, hubble or marinco connectors don't fit tight on the Linn's connector. Hope this helps. Hector
Mephisto, 1) It would seem to me that if you had the right power cable, it would not matter what component you connected the pc to.

2) Very puzzling that you produced such a nice review on the Sistrum rack (which adheres to the 'mechanical transfer to ground of air-borne vibrations and resonance' methodology, but then you jump the fence to the vibration isolation and dampening methodology when it comes to the Linn Classik.

If the Sistrum truly does what you claim(I believe it does), then why would you settle for anything less for your Linn Classic?
