Integrating Linn DS in a Knekt system

  The Linn DS products can only act as sources (like a CD player, Radio etc) within the Knekt system. The Linn DS or Linn DSI products CANNOT replace any Linn Knekt preamplifier products within a system as they do not have any Linn Knekt control sockets (Remote IN/OUT) and can only be controlled by IR. (Early versions on the Linn Sekrit-DSI had Remote IN/OUT connectors, but never incorporated in to the internal software for use) The Internal volume control of the Linn DS products must be disabled. Otherwise you will have two volume controls in the system. One within the Linn DS player and one in each room controlled by the Linn Knekt-RCU. This means that you could have the Room volume quite high and the Linn DS volume quite low. If you switch to another source, like the TV, this is now playing at a high volume control! Using the Linn DSI products can confuse things even further as you may not be listening to a media streaming source and/or you cannot disable the internal volume control: Linn Room Control Unit (RCU) Linn BASIK-3(-IR) RCU The Linn Sneaky-DS and Linn Sekrit-DSI are the only products with Linn RCU- Accessory sockets. These ACC sockets are designed for use with ONLY the Linn Basik3 and Linn Basik3-IR RCU use. The Linn Basik3 RCU allows Standby and volume up/down control. The Linn Basik3-IR RCU has the additional IR control option of the Linn Sekrit-DSI and Linn Sneaky-DS.

The Linn Majik DS will release the full potential of your digital downloads and also your ripped CD collection. The Linn Majik DS utilises proven technology that is derived from that used in the flagship Linn Klimax DS player. The Majik DS plays a wide range of formats from the highest quality recording to WAV files and MP3’s The Linn Majik DS allows you to catalogue your entire music collection and then select and control it all at the touch of a button. We believe that you should decide how to control your Majik DS which is why the Majik DS has been designed with many different control options in mind, for example a touch screen, a remote control or even your mobile phone. You can connect your Linn Majik DS to your computer and home network , so your music can be stored on a networked hard drive (NAS) which is a secure and reliable devise that can grow with your music collection. We believe that the Majik DS is truly the future of music and your hardware won’t be left behind as regular software updates keep it up to date. If you decide that you need to have your entire music collection in other rooms throughout you home then you can either connect more Majik DS players to your system or add a Linn Knect multi-room system.
