ARTIKULAT Loudspeaker System
Owner’s Manual

Introduction
At Linn, we recognise that the way people access sound is changing. Entertainment
systems are becoming ever more integrated and the line between music and movie
systems is no longer clear. As the popularity of new and improved hi-resolution music
formats increases, multi-channel systems are no longer for the movie enthusiast only.
As we change the way we access sound, the equipment we use to relay that sound
must also change. A modern loudspeaker must offer greater levels of flexibility,
reproduce a wider range of sounds and playback at a higher resolution to truly
communicate the full potential of the system. The loudspeaker communicating the
awesome force of an explosion in a movie blockbuster must be subtle enough to replay
the tone and emotion of the softest female jazz vocal.
With this in mind, Linn presents ARTIKULAT - a gorgeous sounding new high-
performance loudspeaker system which combines simply stunning performance with
luxurious appearance to deliver sumptuous, expressive and totally communicative
playback.
