Upgrade to Linn Klout s or go active ?


Have LP12, Karik and other sources.
Currently I use Kairn pre-amp and 2 LK100's driving Kelidhs passively.

I have been thinking for some time about going active with the LK100's but wonder if longer term it's better to move to Klout first and then go active on that. I see that the Klout is being discontinued and it's being advertised on the web for c. £1,600 new (rather than £2,400!).

I don't want to buy 2 Klouts and make them active because of the cost but is it worth going to 1 and later active rather than upgrade the LK 100's?

I can use the LK100's in 2 secondary systems with Majik's so they won't be wasted.

I know another alternative is to move to the LK85's or LK 140's and then go active with them but with the Klout so relatively cheap I just wondered if this is a great chance to move to it.

Go active with the lk100's you can pick up a used one on audigon for 500us or so ...and i believe that you can get an extra bass module for a 4 lk100 which will enhance the bass even more...going active from passive is night and day once done you will consider it your best investment...regards ken
