I don't suppose you noticed what type of wire Linn use for the internal wiring? I've heard that it's Van Damme 2.5?

I sent an email to Linn last year asking if they would make a Keilidh II speaker using the Keilidh bass unit and a BMR mid/treble unit like the one used in the Naim Ovators I wonder if the new Isobarik will be a similar compact floorstanding loudspeaker?

A few years back, I tried 3 different Ixos cables. The cheapest one of the three performed best. But it wasn't great. I've heard something like this before. My first experience with Ixos was around 15 years ago when I read a review in Hi-Fi Choice saying that the cheapest Ixos 104 was better than 2...

I recently bought an Ixos XHA305 interconnect. It's surprisingly refined and transparent sounding for the money, and it's a Hi-Fi Choice Best Buy.

I've noticed some cheap Tongyuan mains power cords on eBay UK though I'm not sure if they're the same as the one's supplied by Linn?

I've been using some Beyer Dynamic DT331 headphones for years and really enjoy them. I'm tempted to upgrade to the DTX910's though. Anyone tried them?

I've read a lot of mixed reviews about the Naim Ovators.

A few people have said that the bass is slightly detached from the mid range and treble and that the BMR drive unit has a slightly hard sound to it. Naims NACA5 probably doesn't help :|

Hi. I notice that my Linn Classik has an Ericsson mains power cable. Is this one of the better cables Linn supplied?

Does anyone know if anything alse is written on the Tongyuan cable (0.75mm, 1.0mm or H055VV etc).
