from Innovative Audio Vid Summary: I have been using my Majik-I for about 2 years and have been quite satisfied with its performance. When paired with a very high quality source, depth and clarity are excellent, soundstaging is great, and the overall listening experience is best described as a musical and faithful reproduction of the original material. The pre-amp unit is sonically translucent, not quite without some color, but listening is a genuine pleasure. Amplification is precise and controlled, although somewhat lacking in the low frequencies. Strengths: Sound quality is quite good for the price. Robust construction, excellent design and materials. Good remote control functionality. Matches very well with other Linn components. Modular design will permit upgrade to aktiv configurations or on board tuner/multi-room module. The upgrade path provides significant improvements in sound quality, but at a price. Comparatively, nothing comes close without spending a lot more money. Weaknesses: Perhaps a little shy in the bass extension. In my bi-amp configuration, the LK85 picks up where the Majik seems to drop off. Similar Products Used: Linn Ikemi CD player, Linn Ninka speakers, Linn LK85 amp. This system is configured bi-amp with Linn black interconnects and Linn speaker cable.
I also have a Rotel RT2100 Tuner and a Nakamichi DR3 t
