I haven't had a lot of acquaintance with Linn gear, just a Majik-I integrated and a Classik. I had to be careful with choosing speakers for these, for two reasons.
First, the output connectors are unique and you have to get speaker cable connectors for them from your Linn dealer.
Second, Linn state their output power at 4 ohms, not the more conventional 8 ohms. They do this for all their gear, not because their amps are underpowered, perhaps their speakers are all 4 ohms nominal. Of course this means that power is approximately half the rated figure at 8 ohms. If you don't pay attention, you could wind up with a mismatch, say a speaker that can just manage on 70 watts at 8 ohms but runs an amp with half that into the ground.
