Linn Movie Classik vs Linn Move Classic Di


Has anyone heard a comparison of the two? On red book cd's is there a difference to justify to 1,000 difference? And is the Classik better than Denon's, Arcam, Rotel receivers? Thanks

Are you crazy or being factitious? LOL

I have never heard the equipment because it is so new ,but rest assured I’d buy the Linn products before I bought the equipment from the mentioned names if cost was no object.

Weather you need Linn or other similar priced gear is the question.There are a number of other notables to consider when getting into that price class and what speakers will you be using?

Linns reputation precedes it in audio I think. I like the slimline designs now and want to get away from bulky big cabinets and alot of heat.

Good luck!
I'd buy Linn over anything the japanese can create I think. I did just buy a Panasonic SA-XR45 Digital Receiver that is getting raves from alll quarters at the moment and if you want to see what you can do with $300 then try one. You might just save a ton of $$ and be greatly rewarded.

If it were me I would get the Linn products followed by the Panasonic.

Please do not laugh at the thought of a $300 receiver being so good. It has been compared to megabuck stuff and held it's own.I know it bettered a Rotel and did good against a $4K Tube Amp to mention a few.

Get the Panny if you have a Digital Based system.I sold off $2000 worth of equipment I cannot use because it is that good,for now.

The Panasonic Component is not a big hassle to change from 4-2 channel I do not think unless you get the SA-XR25 unit.

If you are going for 2 channel sound I think you will be more happy with the Linn stuff,but you can cut corners bvy trying the Panny unit.
