Best speakers for Linn Classik ???


I just bought a used Linn Classik and now I need
speakers. I am leaning towards the Linn Ninka but
wanted to ask if there is a better sounding speaker
to mate with the Classik. The Classik has low power
so the speaker has to be effiecent. The speaker
doesn't have to be Linn either..

Thanks

I wouldn't go with the Ninkas as they require more power than the classic will put out. Sure, it would work but there are more satisfiying speakers to be had. Now, if your goal is to add another amp and go Aktiv then your intitial choice would be okay. I would look at monitors like the linn Kan, Tukan or one of the many LS35A's such as the Rogers. LS35A monitors on good stands are glorious and do the disappearing act easily like nothing else I've ever heard.
I have a Classik-K and use Dynaudio's 52-SE with great results. I have tried the Katans in a medium sized room but found the bass too lean. You can't go aktive with a Classik unless you buy two amps or a multichannel one. The Classik won't take Aktive Cards for the internal amp. I have heard the Classik with B & W's CM-2 and Paradigm's
Studio 20. Both are good options.
I agree the Ninka will not play loud with the classik
but it does sound good together. The smaller Linn
monitor speakers are so lean in the bass that I ruled
them out.
