Re: Linn announcements 9/2018, Selekt, etc.

I use them the same way as you do. I understand from Linn that they will not be introducing this feature, nor in fact any graphical adjustments. Better keep safe copies of your present firmware and Konfig! Donuk sunny downtown York Have you experimented with the "optimisation preference" slider?

Thanks, that sounds sensible.

Re: Linn forum down?

Saw on the archived page that Linn forum have 26,294 registered members. That is a sizable amount of customer base to turn off. Maybe the forum moderator is on extended vacation? I guess there are a lot of spammers taking time to moderate apart from the regulars. Yes, but how many of those accounts...

Re: Linn announcements 9/2018, Selekt, etc.

Meanwhile, getting back on-topic... Today Linndocs has been updated regarding the Selekt DSM without the built-in amps. '''ANALOGUE OUTPUTS''' (XLR & RCA,variable level) - To connect to a preamplifier (or power amplifier when internal volume control is enabled) Has changed to... '''ANALOGUE OUTPUTS'...

Re: Linn announcements 9/2018, Selekt, etc.

From the other thread... I found a site for mastering with a calculator for speed of sound depending on temperature and humidity. It does state that small differences can create issues in closed rooms. Would be interesting to know how much difference it makes for the room modes. http://www.sengpiela...

Re: Linn forum down?

I don't know if it's significant or not but today Linn have commented out the link to the Linn Forums on their "Advanced Installation" page in LinnDocs. http://docs.linn.co.uk/wiki/index.php?title=Advanced_Installation&curid=649&diff=15127&oldid=13740 They didn't delete it at least, but it does make...

Re: Linn announcements 9/2018, Selekt, etc.

Working for me too now. Though I don't fancy taking everything apart and reverting to passive just to see how it sounds. It does look as though they've comprehensively locked Paulssurround and his tweaks out - there's nothing you can adjust that isn't inherently part of your own room. It is still in...

Re: Linn announcements 9/2018, Selekt, etc.

Agreed, those that actually tried the temp/rh SO tweaks seemed to find them beneficial. But there were others, one in particular, who saw it as their mission to protect the future from such 'laughably unscientific ideas'. Anyway, I feel vindicated now that it's been incorporated as an option in the ...

Re: Linn announcements 9/2018, Selekt, etc.

Yep, it seems it's definitely not ready yet! I couldn't even get it to switch SO off, or re-apply the profile I imported before I started. As for the 20 minutes wait - I think that's another communications/refresh failure, I adjusted my failed profile to give it another try. It sat there saying 'que...

Re: Linn announcements 9/2018, Selekt, etc.

Hmm, having an Exakt system rules me out, but not entirely as it's an Akurate DS. So, I switched off the Exaktbbox and gave it a try. Entering the room info was fairly painless, except that it gave me two Front Left speakers! After a lot of deleting and re-adding speakers, both via Konfig and the Li...
