I'm a teeny bit underwhelmed. Unless it has a step forward in amplification then I'm guessing it's Akurate level amps which aren't terrifically exciting. The Majik Iso doesn't seem to have set the world on fire either. The exciting detail may be in the crossovers. The 3K array looks familiar and per...

Both Tundras now sold.

Thanks Fredrik - I was trying to figure how to word it and ended up with 'UK-spec' which I hoped might cover other countries with similar power specs but your reply is much clearer!

For sale my 2 Lejonklou Tundra Stereos. I've switched to 2 Tundra Monos so no longer have a need for both of them. Of course they are available to buy individually! One is serial number 006 purchased in April 2012, the other serial number 024 purchased in August 2012. Both have been recently updated...

Ah, you can spec up a dedicated hi-fi mains supply then! I've recently realised the gains to be made in getting the power supply right. I have a dedicated hi-fi spur but it's not really enough imho. Briain over on the Linn forum may hopefully post some details of his solution - 4 separate radial cir...

I got some old kit put of the loft the other day, a Musical Fidelity B1 which sounded not bad at first, then I realised its limitations. But my old Micromega Stage 1 CD player which I replaced with Genki about 13 years ago sounds great! I've I had rack space I'd put it back in. But that's hifi. I ge...

Just wondering.

Cheers.

Sure has - poor exchange rate at the moment between GBP and SEK :(

Nobody has ever been able to answer your question. Not correct. It has been explained numerous times, see Fredriks post. I just like to add, that the digital signal "1" and "0" is NOT digital. It's an analogue signal. (i.e. the the digital signal is represented in the analogue domain and hence can ...

Got my Tundra Stereos back from Fredrik this afternoon, converted to 1.2 spec. Also got my Monos, but wrong thread for that! I've been using a 4200 while the Tundras have been away (thanks Chris from Hidden Systems - you are too generous) and interestingly the 4200 works really well with the tempora...

Sounds like the dealer is being a cheeky monkey! 109s or 140s would both be as lot better imho. I'd be inclined to go for 140s for the extra bass. I personally really like 140s but am not so familiar with 109s. Hi Linnofil, Thanks a lot for your answer. well I asked him that I was looking for ex-dem...

I was think along the same lines - a no-compromise version and a more practical version. Though if the practical version were to sound as good as the no-compromises version then problem solved!

We may be confusing extras feature sets with minimal feature sets here. For instance what would be the ideal minimum number of inputs? Tune-dem testing would probably indicate just one input due to its simplicity. But how far do we go? Do we have just one input, which only a few people would find co...

* Works with a DS either controllable via Linn remote, RS232 or ethernet (probably most sensible). * Multi-input though not necessarily a moving coil input,? Perhaps make that an add-on module. * Is a front display necessary? Not so much with DS but probably so with other sources - i.e volume value....

Deoxit is terrible. Tried it once long ago and it resulted in a significant degradation of sound quality. And, sorry to be negative, but... Whether a person is experienced with Linn doesn't really say anything about their soldering skills. So many are on the "that doesn't matter" bandwagon. Talking...

The Solo vs Mono comparison still interests me. I was getting to a stage where I was thinking if the Monos didn't compare well that I'd plonk down the cash on some Solos and be guaranteed the best I could buy. I'd never heard Solos before this, but trying Solos and Monos with my own setup at home re...

Hi - yes I did. We had about 6 or 7 people there not including Chris & Fredrik - maybe others later? It was interesting. I am a Tundra fanboi as you probably know so I am fairly biased in my opinions! While I was there we listened and then did a few comparisons. I only heard Mono vs Solo on KDS/1, K...

You still get free buses in the centre of Seattle do you? Well there's your excuse!
(Been a while since I was there)

I did get a chance to listen to Solo vs Mono twice, once at home and once at Hidden Systems. I have to admit that in the context of the type music I listened to and all the other factors at the time I did prefer the Monos. The Solos have a bit of a metallic edge in comparison but are not totally dis...

Monos have gone back now :( Missing them already. From new at least they do need a bit of warming up, much like the Stereos. It seems not just switched on but playing music benefits them. Chris had used the Monos over the few days before getting them last week but they did seem to improve dramatical...

I've changed my opinion again! The Monos are getting more run-in. I'm afraid the gap between Mono and even 2 Stereos is getting bigger. These amps are sensationally good.

The Monos are getting even better with usage! I didn't make it terribly clear above but you can just sense the air between performers in the studio. Playing a good old-fashioned loose-miked album like 'Let It Be' you are in the studio with The Beatles - it is extraordinary! They really present a won...

Thanks for giving up half your Sunday yesterday and giving me the chance to listen to Tundra Monos Chris! I have borrowed them for a day or two so have had a good chance to form an opinion I think. Basically we had a chance to audition 2 Monos versus my 2x v1.1 Tundra stereos. Equipment is KDS/1, KK...

Anyone got an opinion on Tundra Mono vs Klimax Solo yet? I've never actually heard Solos which is probably a good thing bank account-wise.

You have so many choices yet so many possible pitfalls! Two Tundra Monos may be a bit 'power amp heavy', probably not dissimilar to having two Solos. A lot cheaper than Solos but still quite pricey. If you're planning going Klimax level with the rest of the gear then it makes sense, but 'source firs...

A Kikkin could be an option. I replaced an Akurate Kontrol/0D with a Kikkin and preferred it. More transparent and did exactly what I wanted it to. I liked it without a pre-amp but found the Kikkin just took the slightly harsh edge off without adding any of its own character. Irritatingly I heard a ...
