Question Linn Kan replacement?

[Morrisoff]

I have a pair of early 80s Linn Kan speakers and I was wondering if replacing them with a pair of modern budget small speakers such as Q Acoustic 3020i would be an upgrade? I’m a bit out of touch with hi-fi development but was wondering if improvements have been such that my Kans would be easily outperformed by a basic modern model. They still sound ok to me, but could always do with a bit more bass. Thanks

Really the only way to determine if these will be an upgrade is for you to go and audition some.
Modern speakers do not necessarily, by design, sound better than old ones and a lot are system dependant.
