Linn Klimax DS Digital Streamer is the world's best network music player enabling you to experience digital music in unprecedented quality from Studio Master recordings to the latest streaming services.

Reengineered

Introduced in 2007, Klimax DS is the world's first truly high-end network music player setting a benchmark that has stood the test of time. Now completely re-engineered with Linn's Katalyst DAC Architecture it raises the bar still further.

Circuit Boards

The aluminium enclosure has separate chambers for the circuit boards inside to protect the signal at every stage, while the analogue outputs are isolated from noise by dedicated, high-quality transformers. Add Klimax DS as an additional source to your separates system, or use it as a stand-alone unit via on-board volume control.

Klimax Standard

The Klimax network music player was designed with the goal of delivering the most premium musical performance possible. Quite simply, it will capture every musical detail. Crafted from a solid billet of aluminum, all design aspects are optimised for performance thanks to the world-leading electronics inside the clamshell enclosure.

The combination of sound quality beyond compare, sleek looks and perfect build, the Klimax delivers the best of everything Linn offers in one complete integrated package.

Space Optimisation

Space Optimisation uses sophisticated acoustic modelling to build up a complete picture of how the speakers, their placement and the unique characteristics of your room interact to affect the sound you hear. Taking your speaker choice and room layout in consideration means that performance is optimised uniquely for you.

Exakt Link

Exakt technology preserves the natural sound of every instrument by synchronising the elements that make up every note, including all the harmonics. Available through the addition of a Linn integrated speaker or Exaktbox, Klimax DS has Exakt Link connections onboard ready for the ultimate system upgrade.

Katalyst DAC

Linn's new DAC architecture performs digital-to-analogue conversion with greater precision than ever. Katalyst delivers this by controlling the critical elements that lie at the heart of the analogue signal's creation.
