Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

Several years ago I had a chance to compare a used Boazu to my Supernait 2 with the same speakers I had at home (Linn Majik 140's). To be honest, I really expected the the Naim to be the clear winner, perhaps because my main system for the previous twenty years had been active Isobariks driven by Na...

Re: Källa firmware upgrade - postponed

The new firmware is quite a nice upgrade. More information, more nuance, much more musical. It has greatly exceeded my expectations.

Lejonklou Entity 1.1 MC preamp (US only)-SOLD

For sale by original owner in the US. It was upgraded to 1.1 in April 2021 by Tom O'Keefe. Fantastic phono preamp that replaced my Linn Urika, which was also quite good, but not as good as the Entity. The LP12 it was paired with was in a second system and received very little use, and that turntable...

Re: General Discussion about Källa

My Kalla arrived on Thursday and sounded very good right out of the box and before the fixed IP was set up. The fixed IP was sorted out Friday and it was able to warm up as I listened throughout the weekend. I was not sure what to expect, but must say that I find the Kalla to be utterly captivating....

Re: General Discussion about Källa

I received my Kalla yesterday and thought it sounded very good right out of the box. I was using the Netgear GS108T switch between router and Kalla. When I went to set up a fixed IP I could see the switch on the list of devices but not the Kalla. I unplugged the switch and connected Kalla directly t...

Re: Linn versus Naim amps

I went active with Naim electronics in 1998 to drive a pair of Isobariks. The system was comprised of a 52, three 250's, and SNAXO powered by a HiCap. The setup replaced an active Exposure system. I thought the Exposure was very good, but the olive Naim electronics sounded a bit better to me. Primar...

Re: Boazu with Majik140

I had a demo of my Naim Supernait 2 versus the Boazu on Majik 140's and preferred the Boazu. I ended up going with a Sagatun 1.3/ Tundra 2.2 on the 140's. My other system is active Isobariks with Naim 552/ 3x 250DR, not exactly a bass shy setup. I listen to both systems on weekends and do not recall...

Re: Lejonklou Active Crossover

Thanks for the advice on the Linn Tunebox. The Exposure crossover is available as either a two-way or three-way. My understanding is that Kudos asked Exposure if they could make an all analogue crossover as an option to the digital offerings from Linn and Devialet. The chief designer at Exposure mod...

Lejonklou Active Crossover

Is there a chance of seeing a Lejonklou active crossover in the near future? I am considering replacing Naim electronics with Lejonklou in an active system driving Isobariks. A sticking point is what to use for a crossover. The best option seems to be the Exposure VXN active crossover (analogue/ RCA...

Re: Culprit - The phono stage?

Several years ago I was interested in replacing a Rega P3 with either a P6 or LP12 Majik. At the time I also owned a recent vintage Linn Majik integrated. I ended up listening to a P8 vs LP12 instead and, to me, the Linn was much better, and this was well before the Karousel. Migrating to a Gaio and...
