Klimax Twin

Klimax Twin 500

My unit, low mileage is available at a much better price

Give me a call!

Linn's reference stereo power amplifier, incorporates Chakra - a patented, high-efficiency, ultra-linear power amplifier technology which ensures superior levels of responsiveness, efficiency and reliability whilst producing less heat and lower distortion than traditional designs.

Two channels of Chakra amplification, a machined-from-solid enclosure and a Dynamik Power Supply make this Linn's highest performing stereo amplifier.

Just like Klimax Solo 500, the Twin features a machined-from-solid enclosure; to not only look sublime, but to provide electrical and mechanical isolation between the audio and power supply boards. Chakra amplifier topology provides great power, reliability and efficiency, with less heat and distortion than conventional designs.

Key features

• Two channels of Chakra amplification for responsive, powerful and efficient performance
  
• Powered by Linn Dynamik Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS)
  
• Output power 200 W per channel (into 4 Ω)
  
• Electrical and mechanical isolation between power and audio boards
  
• Balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) inputs
  
• Energy saving automatic signal-sensing circuitry
  
• Precision-engineered enclosure machined from a single billet of aluminium

Chakra Technology
Patented amp technology combines the speed and precision of monolithic chip with the robustness and smoothness of bi-polar transistors.

Chakra constantly adapts by using a monolithic at low currents and bi-polar transistors at higher levels. It's a unique approach to transition between these technologies, guaranteeing precisely-controlled clean, silent power at all listening levels.

Powered by Linn Dynamik
We have been creating our own switch-mode power supplies for decades – to generate stable, low noise power in a compact, cool-running package. This electrical cleanliness is critical to amplifier performance.

Dynamik ensures superb isolation from mains-borne noise, formidable power and responsiveness; clearly outperforming bulky and noisy traditional power supplies.

Sound Sense
All Linn power amps are designed to be efficient even when not in use. Auto signal-sensing detects the presence of an audio signal and minimises power consumption by reverting to sleep mode when inactive, while fault detection and protection mechanisms help safeguard your system against short circuit or excessive load damage.

Use a single Twin for a passive stereo set-up, and add more to multi-amp your speakers or upgrade to Aktiv or Exakt in conjunction with Klimax Exaktbox.
