Klimax Twin
A recipe for stereo perfection
Two channels of Linn's patented Chakra amplification, a machined-from-solid enclosure, and a Dynamik Power Supply make this our highest performing stereo amplifier.
Just like Klimax Solo 500, the Twin features a machined-from-solid enclosure; to not only look sublime, but to provide electrical and mechanical isolation between the audio and power supply boards. Chakra amplifier topology provides great power, reliability and efficiency, with less heat and distortion than conventional designs.
Use a single Twin for a passive stereo set-up, and add more to multi-amp your speakers or upgrade to externally amplified Exakt, in conjunction with Klimax Exaktbox.

Chakra Technology
Patented amp technology combines the speed and precision of monolithic chip with the robustness and smoothness of bi-polar transistors.
Chakra constantly adapts by using a monolithic at low currents and bi-polar transistors at higher levels. It's a unique approach to transition between these technologies, guaranteeing precisely-controlled clean, silent power at all listening levels.
Powered by Linn Dynamik
We have been creating our own switch-mode power supplies for decades – to generate stable, low noise power in a compact, cool-running package. This electrical cleanliness is critical to amplifier performance.
Dynamik ensures superb isolation from mains-borne noise, formidable power and responsiveness; clearly outperforming bulky and noisy traditional power supplies.
Sound Sense
All Linn power amps are designed to be efficient even when not in use. Auto signal-sensing detects the presence of an audio signal and minimises power consumption by reverting to sleep mode when inactive, while fault detection and protection mechanisms help safeguard your system against short circuit or excessive load damage.
Klimax Solo 800
Superior-performance, reference mono amplifier
Up to 1.2kW of pure, unadulterated power that demonstrably outperforms its larger rivals.
