Solid State Power Amp Reviews

Manufacturer's Comment

We are thrilled with Stereophile's verdict on the Klimax Solo 800. Jason's considered words acknowledge the innovation and hard work that have gone into development of this new flagship amplifier, in a new category for us at Linn.

John Atkinson's verdict based on his measurements is also graciously received. However, the charts published differ significantly from our own repeated measurements here at the factory. Linn's working assumption is that the model measured by Stereophile was not performing to the level of a current, full-production Solo 800. We have decided to send a new amplifier to Mr. Atkinson for remeasuring, and Stereophile has kindly agreed to publish these new measurements in a future issue once they are available.—Joe Rodger, Brand Manager Linn
