It’s probably been nearly 10 years since I owned a pair of passive speakers but that changed recently with the purchase of a pair of Linn’s latest 119 stand mounts that I’ve paired with a Nord Hypex power amp.
It’s probably cost an extra £1k to improve on the sound of the Elac Navis actives, but I’m happy with the move. I’ve never really been a fan of Linn speakers in the past although I know that many love particular models. Got to say, however, that these 119s are cracking, with the retailer saying that they compare closely with similar priced Dalis.
Paired with a£600 Nord Hypex, the sound is open, detailed, incredibly well timed and totally natural to my (aging) ears.
