LINN Kan Floorstanding Speakers

 

I purchased a pair of Linn Kan V a while ago after years with a pair of late serial number Mk1 Kans...They were cheap and fancied a go with them as I adore the Mk1 version..

LINN Kan Floorstanding Speakers

 

I purchased a mint pair of Linn Kan V at ebay two months ago. They should replace a vintage pair of Rogers LS 2/A2, that had given me a lot of pleasure.

LINN Kan Floorstanding Speakers

 

I was fortunate enough to have made a wise decision way back in 1985 and that was to buy a pair of black Linn Kan I's. They survived many upgrades of amplifiers (from Naim and Linn), turntables, CD players (Arcam, Marantz and Meridian Transport/DAC),...

sound and build quality; tremendous value on the used market

The reliability of 20 something year old drivers is dependent upon who owned these speakers before you got a hold of them. For example, how hard were they were driven, and how good were the amplifiers being used to drive them ; In a positive situation...

Since its inception some 20 plus years ago, the Linn Kan has been manufactuered in at least five different versions, not the least of which is the Kan V.

Since its inception some 20 plus years ago, the Linn Kan has been manufactuered in at least five different versions, not the least of which is the Kan V. The Kan V is a terrific little speaker with most if not all of the virtues of the earlier Kan 1...

Excellent midrange and bass. Sounds equally as good with classical, jazz and rock. And as long as it's paired with an excellent source and amplification, the Kan V will bring years of musical enjoyment to both casual and serious listeners alike

At $500 for the pair, none

Yes, there better (Linn) -speakers, I thing Linn Katan is more refinded in the bass area, but it's cost twice as much. However this is very good value for the money, (550 €).

Well, I've owned my Linn Kans (I) for 16 years and thought that things must have moved on in that timeline - decided to go "brass in pocket" to audition some speakers. Firstly though, decided that my 7 year old 2-box Meridian CD/DAC was probably still...

Clarity, punchiness of bass when coupled to Linn amplification

None. Component partnering is however, crucial. As is good cabling
