LINN AV 5140

 

The Linn Av 5140 is a great speaker for Music and movies. The speakers have a warm sound,but with good detail! The bass is extended and tight. I started with a pair of AV5140 for 2ch , then added the Av 5120 center channel. Now I have a Full AV51...

The 5140s are great speakers that require a bit of attention. I write that because out-of-the-box they can sound very bad, closed-in and rather dead. Like the Keilidhs they replaced, they have to be broken in for 30-40 hours before the tweeters are...

Clean, detailed. Works well for both music and home theater. Option to take them Aktiv

Needs: Time to break-in. Proper room placement. An amplifier that can deliver current

Construction, looks, sound with Music and AV

The standard bases are not very good, considering the quality of the speaker

LINN AV 5140

 

While I submitted a review over 1 year ago I felt the need to re-visit the issue. I have made some additional changes in my source, cables and drivers and wanted to report the results. My 5140''s are active with 400 Aragon watts per driver @ 4...

Sound, sound, sound!!! Imaging, soundstage, detail, low end punch, smooth difuse highs and mids

Memories of pre-active and Espek upgrade sound
