KLIMAX Loudspeaker System

Owner’s Manual

Introduction     English

IIntroduction

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 Klimax - a gorgeous sounding high-performance
loudspeaker system which combines simply stunning performance with luxurious
appearance to deliver sumptuous, expressive and totally communicative playback.

The Klimax system 

Klimax 350A - A fully Aktiv*, six-way, floor-standing
loudspeaker that has been precision engineered to
provide outstanding performance in medium to large
sized listening areas. In music and AV applications, it
provides exceptional audio playback, excelling in the
faithful reproduction of all types of music, dialogue and
effects. Klimax 350A features Linn Aktiv crossovers and
includes 1500 watts of Linn Chakra** power
amplification for optimum power and control. Its dual 8"
(20cm) servo-controlled bass drive units, 6.5" (16.5cm)
upper bass driver and 3-K Array** combine to offer
exceptional performance throughout and beyond the
audible range.

Klimax 350 - As Klimax 350A, but featuring advanced
passive crossovers for upper-bass / 3-K Array, with the
Aktiv lower-bass units driven by 1000 watts of
integrated Chakra power amplification.
