The Tune Method is mandatory on this forum and I will not allow any debate about that fact - we've been there many times before and it leads nowhere. Except that valued contributors, who don't have endless amounts of time to spend on forums, get tired of reading meaningless discussions and leave. G...

It seems that most of us experienced Linnies on this thread have been invited to join the development forum. I have too. After getting over the one second flattery that they thought me worth asking, I thought about it a bit more. Unless more details come up to change my mind, I will not join. I thin...

I say this slightly tongue in cheek, but... I commented earlier that the Linn forum simply needed better moderating. It is interesting that, from my point of view, we have had a most informative and adult conversation on this thread about a sensitive, and for some, emotional issue. But it has been m...

Actually without being morbid I think it is all part of dumbing down of the audio industry to stay alive. Actually I can foresee Naim and Linn no longer existing in ten years' time because of 1) company follies 2) the changes in home entertainment 3) the forthcoming financial crisis in the UK Hope I...

I agree with Sunbeam.
A bit like dog shit in the park. Spoils it for everyone.

Moderation of the forum was all that was necessary. They could have even have asked for voluntary moderators. Some forums have that system.........

Timster, I have written something similar.
I love your request to be a Beat Tester.

Has a nice touch of tunedem about it!

Latest from Sunny Downtown York: Can rarely get beyond Music Systems - says my ADS is not online in spite of it playing Qobuz, and being visible with Kazoo, Konfig and Fing. (On iPhone, iPad and Mac). Can rarely get a calculation completed. Says its either queued or failed. Not impressed. Decided to...

Gosh. It's suicidal. It's as daft as Brexit.
Donuk

Can somebody tell me, in the context of this forum, what is meant by musical understanding?

I may be talking rubbish but is there not a way of making a modified SO2 file look like an SO1 file and go into Konfig, space, open, inport and then load it into the new browser software as if it were a genuine "old" configuration?

Donuk

Any ideas where the SO2 files are kept on a Mac?
Donuk

donuk, if your DS is fine on the local network but seems unstable when connecting to the cloud it may point to your ISP/modem. Do you have similar issues streaming from say Tidal/qobuz? Thanks for the thought Timster, but Qobuz (always) works fine. Same problem on my hard wired Mac, and wifi iPhone...

Here is a summary of what I have found so far: I have made various configurations for SO2 in recent days and tried adjustments in different extremes and interim settings. SO2 does seem to clarify the sound and may suit some systems. I regret the absence of graphic adjustments, so I have reverted to ...

I sincerely hope that the bass and treble shelf features are introduced, as I listen in a relatively 'bright' room with a lot of hard surfaces: the system sounds best with a 2db treble cut @ 12k hz (and +2db bass gain @ 65hz) I use them the same way as you do. I understand from Linn that they will ...

Is it my stupidity, but I cannot find anywhere in the new scheme of things to put in the height of the speaker stands, i.e distance from bottom of speaker to the floor. Anyone found this? Or do they now reckon this is not now significant. And, calculations will not work at all today.... Donuk sunny ...

Again thanking Mr L for letting this continue. Whatever the future, we would be wise to keep copies of recent Konfig and Firmwares. These might be necessary presumably if anyone wants to run a streamer without an internet connection. And if charges appear, we an at least fall back on these. The good...

Does anyone else have this problem? - Getting back in to My Account. Then go to Music systems. Then it says it is off line. It seems the only way to get it on line is to go into Kazoo, settings and Linn Labs Then type in my password and e mail address (Mac Safari will not remember it) Then try sever...

I used to own a Powerline and tried it on Linn 2200, Majik DS and ADS, and Tundra 2 While it did make an audible difference to the power supply on my Naim CD5, it did not improve the above. I have never found anything that actually sounds more musical that the standard leads that come with the kit. ...

Seems to be up and running here now. It is all a bit clunky, and sometimes things don't seem to work first time. Something a bit wrong with putting in data for your walls. I had to keep going in and out of the app. I did manage to create a new optimisation, and also import my old one. It seems they ...

No, not working properly either in sunny downtown York.
Will not finish calculating!

We can't (and actually wouldn't want to) have a symphony orchestra or jazz band playing in our living room, but our Hi-Fi works best when it fools us into believing that the musical performance is happening here and now. No, the objective a HiFi system is not to fool us into believing that the perf...

Totally agree Charile1 with your post, which leaves the door open for a variety of opinions about amplifiers. It depends upon what you yourself are doing. If you are a musicologist listening to a Beatles record noting down the clever vocal harmonies in sixths on If I Fell, you might prefer the Magik...

The above from Gussy is an example of gentlemanly agreement which you won't easily find elsewhere...

Donuk, smug downtown York.

Who knows what Linn is trying to do? Their forum was very useful for Newby support. But the same few characters seem to dominate the replies - either repeating answers you may give, or calling yours rubbish. I have looked at a number of forums over the years, and have concluded that many contributor...

I think Linn have made a mistake dropping their forum for so long for the following reasons: 1) People like me are finding they no longer miss it. Have broken the habit. 2) They are likely to create a sense of anticlimax. (no pun intended). After all this wait, I can imagine myself saying "Oh, is th...
