What to buy  

• The Compact Disc has come a long way since it was initially introduced. Linn has used its expertise in sound recording to use the CD medium to the full and offers discs which all play back in regular CD players whilst offering various enhancements which can be exploited on more specialist disc playing products. The enhancements include SACD, HDCD and GOLD discs.
  
  
• Vinyl is the original, and some say the best, high quality music recording system. Linn's top quality pressings are available on 180 gram VINYL.
  
  
• Linn offers Download files in three different quality levels; Studio Master (FLAC/WMA), CD Quality (FLAC/WMA) and MP3. Your first step should be to download our free test files to see which is best for you.  For more information visit our Download section.
