AKURATE
Stereo, Germany
Oct 2006
“The Avantgarde of the Active league is the fully Active Akurate 212 Bookshelf loudspeaker, quad-wired and quad-amped 4-way - Audiophile overkill or rather the typical result for Linn?...
We’re talking Top of the Upper Class here, and I mean it…Rarely have I heard my favourite recordings so unleashed, so free of technical limitations, so sharply focussed and dynamic….The room is literally flooded by music, with extremely extended treble and effortless, substantial, powerful bass that totally belies this loudspeaker’s diminutive dimensions… Fantastic…One of the best and musically correct systems at any price, anywhere. Period…Don’t even think about using the Akurate 212 single-wired or with a standard amplifier. Play them multi-wired and multi-amped or better yet, Aktiv. That’s a small price to pay for their unique potential…Sound Quality: 100 %, Value For Money: very good.”
