Linn 150 Floorstanding Speakers in Satin Black (pair)

Passive Pedigree

Linn has a rich history of designing compact hi-fi loudspeakers that deliver exceptional performance for their size. The 150 embodies this legacy, setting a new performance standard while offering unmatched versatility for building and expanding your audio system.

150 Selekt System

Pairing the 150 speakers with a Selekt DSM: Classic Hub creates a future-proof audio system that can be upgraded as needed. You can enhance performance by transitioning from passive to Exakt with additional internal amplification, upgrade your DAC modules, and take advantage of free software updates that enhance capabilities—whether in major upgrades or incremental steps, the choice is yours.

Natural sound needs perfect timing

When you listen to a Linn system, it’s striking just how natural it sounds. It’s as if you’re listening to the real musicians, right there in front of you. The most natural sound available can only be achieved with perfect timing.

When you hear an instrument being played live, the elements that make up every note—including all the harmonics—arrive at your ear at the same time.

Sounds simple, but the fact is that no speaker system has ever been able to synchronise these elements accurately: until now.

Our systems feature Exakt technology, which ensures the perfect time alignment of every part of every note, so now you can enjoy the same natural sound that was recorded by the artist.

Out of phase?  Linn have phased that out

All speakers with more than one drive unit have the same problem. Higher frequencies played by one drive unit always arrive at your ears before lower frequencies played by the other drive units, making them out of phase with each other.

This timing error is enough to distort the sound of each instrument, making it harder to experience the emotion of the music.

Building on our expertise in both digital music streaming and active speaker design, we’ve developed a completely new technology to solve this problem. Exakt delivers a linear phase performance across all the frequencies to ensure they arrive at your ear perfectly synchronised
