MAINTENANCE
The Linn KEILIDHs normally need no maintenance, other than occasionally
polishing the cabinet with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Take care not to touch
the drive units behind the grille cloth. If you have to transport your speakers,
remove the spikes and use the original packing. Your retailer can provide
packing if necessary.
CONFIGURATION
The Linn KEILIDHs are an extremely versatile loudspeaker, and can be used
in a particularly wide range of configurations, each with a distinct performance
advantage. This makes it easy for you to develop your system over its
lifetime, without having to change any substantial component. The
configurations possible are:
- SINGLE-WIRED
- BI-WIRED
- BI-AMPLIFIED
- BI-AMPLIFIED AKTIV (dealer install only)
- TRI-AMPLIFIED AKTIV (dealer install only)
In the SINGLE-WIRED configuration, a single amplifier drives each loudspeaker
through a single loudspeaker cable. This configuration is often used but it can
be easily improved upon at relatively little cost by BI-WIRING the loudspeakers.
BI-WIRING improves the performance of a loudspeaker. A single amplifier is
still used, but this drives each loudspeaker through two loudspeaker cables,
one for the bass/midrange section, and one for the treble section.
By separating the cables to these sections, interaction between the bass and
treble currents is reduced. The extra cost of an additional pair of loudspeaker
cables is more than justified by the improvement in sound quality gained.
The KEILIDHs are designed to be wired in this mode when a single amplifier
is used.
In the BI-AMPLIFIED configuration, two amplifiers are used to drive the
speakers, such that the bass/midrange and treble sections of each loudspeaker
are individually powered by a dedicated amplifier section. Each amplifier
