KEY FEATURES INCLUDE
The KOLEKTOR is a high fidelity stereo preamplifier
designed to manage and control the ever-increasing
amounts of audio source formats without com-
promising signal purity. It combines high precision
solid state switching, surface mounted components
and Linn’s patented silent Switch Mode Power Supply
to maximise signal integrity and minimise noise.
The KOLEKTOR’s ten audio inputs include one
precision equalised, low noise phono stage, fully
integrated and electronically switched to avoid any
mechanical connections in the sensitive phono signal
path. Three line outputs enable tri-amping without
the need to daisy chain power amplification whilst a
tape output allows off board analogue recording. A
separate headphone amplifier stage is also included
internally to drive headphones without compromising
signal quality in the main audio path. Tone controls
enable subtle refinements to suit any listening room
or type of music.
Available in Black and Silver finishes, the KOLEKTOR
is a flexible control solution that can be auditioned at
Linn specialist retailer outlets worldwide.
