A CD, DVD or multi-format player is the most common source for high-end audio or home theater systems today. These players read tiny pits on the discs with a laser beam and perform digital-to-analog conversion on the data that is retrieved from the disc. This is an incredibly difficult and demanding task that requires a precision instrument to achieve high quality results. A $79 player can read a CD but the analog signal that comes out is an inadequate source for a high-end audio system.

The signal from the source component sets the limit for resolution for the entire audio system. No component in the amplification or output sections of the system can recreate musical information that was lost or damaged by the source component.

The Digital Player or D/A converter you purchase is an important choice and we invite you to call for our insight. Let us help you select from the many brands we offer; you're sure to find one to match your taste and budget.

Launched over 30 years ago, Linn's first ever product, the SONDEK LP12, defied, challenged and eventually revolutionised accepted hi-fi wisdom.

At that time, loudspeakers were considered the most important component within a hi-fi system. Linn contended that the source component, in this case the turntable, ultimately determined the performance of the hi-fi system, a fact which was easily proven by a simple A-B demonstration. Linn's 'source-first' approach is now a widely adopted industry standard.

Three decades later, Linn's product range has grown substantially from that original SONDEK LP12 turntable. Today Linn's range of precision engineered audio and video components contains more than 50 individual products which span all three elements critical to any entertainment system: source, control and playback.
