Re: Komponent 110 and Lejonklou
Weren't these the series that were outsourced to China for manufacturing? Yes, I think that is the main reason why they stopped making them. Getting spare parts took to long time, big batches in manufacturing, getting a bad reputation from the "made in PRC" stickers etc. But that is just me guessin...

Re: Komponent 110 and Lejonklou
Somewhere deep in my memory cells I had filed away that ML had reviewed the 110s as musical on this forum and possibly a Linnofil on the Linn forum? Komponent 110 is a brilliant speaker! I really like them and think they have great musicality and dynamics. But not in the lower frequencies. They are...

Boazu, never "herd" of that before... I bet it sounds exciting with the JBL horns. Thanks for the teaser!

Re: Ofil Stands, by Linnofil
can we exspect somé changes in the future? No changes are planned right now. I don't have any 3677 speakers myself and have to test all developments at customers homes. That is a bit limiting and even if Christian (mostly) and Fredrik has helped me out, I need to leave them to enjoy their systems i...

Re: Ofil Stands, by Linnofil
Congratulations Linnofil on your great stands! They look like instant classics Thanks Marco! Is the medium gloss finish a fixed choice or does that come in optional finishes? The only thing I don't do myself is paint them. Powdercoat requires rather special facilities, so I have that made by a comp...

Re: Ofil Stands, by Linnofil
Excellent work, Linnofil. Thanks! 1.) How do the stands interface to the speakers? Do the upper spikes go directly into the wood or MDF or is there something in between? The spikes go directly Into the MDF of the speaker. In the center of the front and rear 25 mm MDF. For best result there should n...

Ofil Stands, by Linnofil
As many of you have read already in a few other threads, I have made speaker stands for some forum members.

Re: JBL 3677
Linnofil, what is the price for a pair of your superb looking 3677 stands? Thank you Matthias! Right now they have an introductory price of 5500SEK + shipping. (€580/$650) They are bespoke handmade stands with all details, including spikes made in-house. Powder coated in black as standard. I don't ...
Re: JBL 3677
When Linnofil first came to my house he said something like It is strange to see that 15 inch unit and hear a 5 inch unit playing Next listening session the filers had been moved and we also tested the new stands he concluded Now I can both see and hear a 15 inch unit I think this is the "probl...
Re: Slipsik 6
I always had Gaio to Slipsik as the final upgrade of the Majik Lp12 - but it sounds like it is quite an improvement, in the above system. Even if I think the Slipsik 6 is really great and very worthwhile improvement for most people, I don't think it defies source first logic. But it is a very conve...
Re: Slipsik 6
I listened to the new Slipsik 6 last week and managed to compare it to a Slipsik 5.1. I came in to the Tonläget shop when a customer had a 5.1 with him for a comparison. I was kindly invited to sit in and it was very interesting indeed! The difference was obvious and big. With the 5.1 it sounded lik...

Thanks for the tip, I willl def get one or ten from my local Biltema. Dont buy to many, let others enjoy them to! :-) Did it sound(musically) better than taking the analog signal out from the 30pin connector on your iphone 4/4s? I haven't compared them. I will see if I can do that. But my memory sa...

Sorry Linnofil I wasn't actually recommending the dac I was just saying it sounded better than 200GBP dacs I compared it with on my dell mini @ 29 GBP ... Hi Lego, no apologies needed! It was my decision and I was curious about it, since I didn't have a good way to get music out from the Iphone 5s ...

Biltema is a chain for cheap car parts, tools etc. They are only present in Sweden, Norway and Finland. Sorry about that... I was searching for a good way to get music from my IPhone 5s. The analouge out from the headphone out is NOT any good. My good solution costed me £2. The Biltema 24-191 blueto...

I never got the chance to listen to Linnofils Kans either but maybe in the future. Sorry, forgot about this. Check PM! It feels a bit bad not to have the right values in one capacitor, isn't it likely that parallel wiring degrade the signal compared to using the right value?? Dont' feel bad, there ...

On the subject of copying I want to tell you this: A couple of days ago Linnofil were at my house playing music. He brought a couple of albums on an usb stick. Linnofil is a great ripper as we know :) but when we compared his music to mine all of the albums was tired a boring sounding. Our conclusi...

I will see if I can find some photos of my rebuilt crossovers somewhere. I remember having several capacitors in parallell to get the right value for some of them. I also checked them all for direction before soldering them. I know you live reasonably close to me (as I have seen you at Tonläget) so ...

as you well know, more expensive is not the same as better especially in this area. That is very true! But if you say that the K version is the way to go I believe you.

I realize that this question is a difficult one ... It would be good to get an indication of which part has the biggest influence It really is a sum of all parts. The more optimized it gets, the more difference can be heard from the small components. In a finished LS-NAS it is easy to hear the diff...

a few retailers have both versions listed, and the "K" version is about twice the price of the non-k version That's like buying cheap pasta when trying to cook a great meal. It's the wrong place to go cheap, because it doesn't really effect the total price and may ruin it all. I'd stick with the fa...

Are there any testing still going on or are those of you who have built one just enjoying the music? :) Well, I actually thought we would be more LS-NAS owners by now. The combined testing done by multiple owners could taket it a step further. But as the results are difficult to believe without act...

Hi Linnofil, has there been any recent consensus as to where the Harmoni fits into a system's hierarchy in terms of musicality/source first? No consensus as far as I know. I think I have my own conclusions that not all agree with, especially those who haven’t heard the Harmoni. But I think it is a ...
