Re: Klimax DS torque recommendations
Thanks Thomas. Sounds like I need to invest in a torque driver and spend an hour or two sorting things out...

Re: Preamps with DSs
Davaar 30 can be dangerous on any DS! Linn have officially withdrawn 29 and 30 due to a slight risk of completely "bricking" your DS! Apparently it's not an issue if successfully running now, but they don't recommend upgrading to 29 or 30 if you're on an earlier version. See this thread: http://foru...

On a different note - I'd also love to see any recommendations for KRDS/0 and KRDS/1 torques.

Please accept my apologies.
Somehow I didn't see your offer, and another kind forum member had managed to find me the cable I needed.

Swap - KRDS/0 & 2100 for other DSMs?
I'm probably moving house later this year, and looking at some changes to the rooms I want to have music in. As such, I'm thinking of getting rid of my KRDS/0 and 2100, and getting hold of an MDSI or MDSM and a Sneaky or Sekrit, so that I can run two rooms. Since the values are not completely differ...

Nice post Ceilidh, and good to see both the theoretical side with links to factual academic data, and also the more personal, subjective perspective.

Any idea how long you expect this promotion to run?

I look forward to hearing the Tundra 2.0 in my own system, and at some point I also want to do a proper demo of the Sagatun as I may well be moving away from AV and back to a stereo only system.

Re: Linn discontinues all analog preamps!
Yes. With an analogue source there is an "Analogue Direct" mode (can't remember the exact name) which is an analogue path throughout the KDSM. However, it (obviously) doesn't then allow SPACE or EXAKT.tokenbrit wrote:Is there another way to use the KDSM/1 other than digital volume straight to the power amps?

Re: Ds networkconnection via Power outlet/Wifi AP
I'd strongly recommend using a cabled connection into the room. Worth thinking outside of the box though. You may find that a 20m link internally could be replaced by a 5m cable running outside of the house using exterior grade cable.
I did that in several cases myself and it was much easier.

Sounds very interesting.
Can you tell us more about the changes? Do they include similar things to those on the Tundra Mono 2, such as the large copper heatsink?

Re: DS to /2 upgrade
I haven't tried. I would expect it to give an "Invalid firmware" error or something, similar to what happens if you try to put ADS firmware onto a KDS, or KDS/1 firmware on a KDS/0.

By all means, once others are found with his ears a...
