Linn klimax solo vs klimax chakra twin

Hi jaf

Actually the Amati anniversario is the spekaer i will upgrade to.

Right know my room can barly work with the cremonas and the anniversarios have a much more full and deep sound.
but in a couple of years or less i will have a bigger room and by then the anniverasrios can be bourgt secondhad at a fair price.

The cremonas are heaveen for me really only the annies seemed better and still musical as the cremonas are.

I can see that the solos would be better if i get the annies in the future but from a finansial point of view getting the chakra twin now and then just waith a couple of years seems like the best way.

what still borthers me with the solos is the are 8 years old
I cant imagin it be long before Linn dos somthing to there klimax series or make somthing new and better causing the solos price to drop even further just saw that there is a pair of solos for under 10 k

The klimax chakra twin just seems like a no brainer for now
unless linn offers a upgrade to the solos soon.

thanks

Uhhh, I could be wrong about this, so check with a Linn engineer to be sure...
The Chakra design was to Enhance AND PROTECT the fragile and vulnerable Mosfets that are in the Klimax Twin.
The Klimax Solos have ONLY bipolars. It would be silly to augment Bipolar transistors with MORE Bipolar transistors.

Hi Dfarmer

Just to make sure i understand you right

So basicly The twin have a different layout then the solos ?
And there for even if the twin now is the chakra twin the solos are better made still.

am i getting it right?

regards

i just wanted this thread to know that i getting the solos
Found a pair from 2002 at a fair price

i will post my findings when the are here.

i heard the klimax chakra the other day with majik frontend and i was so releafed because now i know that the linn klimax are right up my ally i simplt loved it

it sounded like if it wassent there

only the music was heard and it boggies to

A littel lean but based on my experinces with top notch frontends i know that the leannes disapears when a amp gets its signal from my frontend.

I also know now why the linn amps sound more then fantastic with the cremonas .

regards

Tda,
Congrats!! youve made a wise choice. Ive also read that the later model solos are better than early..so a 2002 model should be great!!! love to hear your feedback
