I've never had a satisfactory answer to the question whether 'room modes' (which I understand as referring to distortions caused by the interaction of the music source with the room in which it is played) are dependent on volume level. My experience has been that SO settings that may improve the so...

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...

Selekt launch write up from Absolute Sound http://www.theabsolutesound.com/article ... elekt-dsm/

Should we start a new thread purely to discuss the new SO, which appears to be called V2, as none of us here appear interested in Selekt?

I suppose the big question is “when is the Exakt version coming?” Will it be weeks or months?

I suspect that Konfig fails because the new optimisation will contain variables that Konfig doesn’t recognise (ie the ones it doesn’t offer) ‘troll Sorry I did not mean that Konfig failed.

Has anyone on here managed to get the new SO to work?

Hi Donald, 1. I don’t know the answer, but what’s wrong with having to use Kazoo to assign a new system? It’s only one more app to have installed, you don’t have to use it for anything else and, I assume, you won’t add new systems very often. 2. My understanding of the new SO is that it now allows y...

I updated my software last night so I've got the pins. I can't see any use for these within Kazoo, other than perhaps assigning a pin to a specific radio station. So I could have a Radio Paradise pin, instead of having to go to all the trouble of selecting the Radio input AND THEN having to select ...

I’d be quite happy if they dropped the Third Party section, there are other forums more suited. I don’t think it does Linn any favours and, in my opinion, attracts too many of the “my only piece of Linn is a pre-cirkus LP12 with no baseboard and I don’t understand Tunedem” variety.

Charly, surely the whole idea is that, with a comprehensively modelled room, you won’t have filters which need to be dropped, or custom filters which need to be created. I’ve had a cursory read through the instruction manual and am really impressed with the options they’ve introduced. Should you be ...

It looks very comprehensive, looking forward to the Exakt version. I imagine it will reduce Paulsurround’s air miles somewhat.

We have to assume that Linn wish us to use the Helpdesk instead of the Forum. Feel free to email them with questions.

I think it might refer to eliminating the DS products. And personally I did find it a bit confusing (DS, DSM some with, some without Exakt links, some with some without analog output). J.

Absolutely. A small but very significant point which, I feel, can often escape some of the naysayers.

https://www.linn.co.uk/speakers-and-amps/upgrades/exaktbox#akurate-exaktbox-i The Linn website still has the image of Majik Exaktbox-I That shouldn’t come as a surprise, Matteo.

Does anyone know when the Selekt is coming to market? With Pins being a selling point, and with hardware buttons, Davaar 64 and Kazoo will need releasing first wouldn't they? Tom O’Keefe said earlier that the software would be out next week (25th), although just SO, not SO+ yet. Although there seem...

Thanks for all the interesting information!! One thing keeps me scratching my head: Yep, I mainly covered the hardware. Linn also did announce a new and completely revamped Space Optimisation. The new version is said to be a dynamic solution which accounts for pressure changes in a room over time, ...

Thanks ThomasOK - very informative. A couple of additional questions: - 1. The Bridged Class-D amplifier with post-filter feedback - is Class-D the future direction of travel for all Linn power amplifiers? 2. Power supply - one of the What Hi-Fi pages has a picture of a Selekt with the cover off. W...

I am a little unsure about how Linn is going about releasing this as it mainly talks about dealers using it to optimize systems for their customers and making it available on the dealer portal. I’ll be extremely annoyed if something as useful and powerful as this is restricted to dealer access and ...

Some people just don't know how to keep a secret! It can't just be a typo for LP12 as the footprint of the Selekt DSM is square and not even close to that of the rectangular Sondek. The LP23 is Linn's new close and play square turntable made to play the new 9" (23cm) records Linn is also introducin...

Thanks for that Tom. Any indication when the new SO will become available to existing DS(M)s?
