Machined from solid aluminium, the design of Klimax Kontrol reflects its performance – simple and precise. The unique chassis design provides a slim and elegant housing for Linn’s advanced electronics. The audio circuit board and power supply are enclosed in separate solid aluminium ‘rooms’ within the chassis, screening and protecting them from vibration, thermal variations and electromagnetic interference to preserve the integrity of the music signal. .

Klimax Kontrol features a simple, direct-coupled, optimised audio path which protects the delicate audio signals. It also benefits from ‘silent power’ delivered by a Linn Switch Mode Power Supply. Where conventional power supplies operate through the standard audio bandwidth, Linn high-frequency Switch Mode Power Supplies instead convert power at frequencies well outside the audio bandwidth ensuring the audio signal is unaffected by this conversion and all you hear is the music.

Klimax Kontrol also features balanced audio inputs and outputs for the optimum connection to the rest of your system. Using balanced audio connectors and cables in your system helps to remove unwanted current and noise, keeping the signal clean and giving the highest possible sound quality.

The simplicity of the Klimax Kontrol design is complemented by exceptional ease of use. Simply select the input you want to listen to and adjust the volume. Nothing more. For simple listening to stereo music, the performance of the Klimax Kontrol is unequalled.

The Klimax Kontrol can be connected to the best CD, SACD or DVD-Audio players, or to a turntable through a phono-preamplifier. It is the natural partner for Linn’s Klimax 500 Solo and Klimax 500 Chakra Twin Power Amplifiers, and will improve the accuracy of any high fidelity stereo system.

Like all Linn pre-amplifiers, Klimax Kontrol features Knekt technology which means you can also enjoy music throughout your home as part of a Linn Knekt multi-room system.
