Energetic. Refined. Fun.
150 is a modern, high-performance, and compact 3-way loudspeaker. This all-new, passive speaker model is energetic, conspicuously refined – and loads of fun!
Passive Pedigree
Linn has a long history of designing and manufacturing compact hi-fi loudspeakers with excellent performance that belies their size. 150 reflects this pedigree, with a new performance benchmark and the addition of peerless versatility when it comes to building and expanding a system.
150 Selekt System
Pair 150 speakers with a Selekt DSM: Classic Hub, and you will have a future-proof complete system which can be upgraded over time. Upgrade performance from passive to Exakt by adding more internal amplification, upgrade your DAC modules, and apply free-of-charge, capability-enhancing software updates – in big steps, or bit-by-bit – it’s your choice.
Design Brief
With 150, the goal was to create a fundamentally entertaining loudspeaker, but one with refinement, sophistication and neutrality, so that it would play any source material equally well – and equally enjoyably.
150 is fitted with premium drive units, delivering excellent linear performance and excursion capability. Drawing from what we learned during development of our flagship 360 loudspeakers, drive units are mounted at the very front of the baffle, with no grille, to minimise occlusion and improve excursion.
Component quality is high throughout. The lower-order passive crossover in 150 is designed for signal purity and, as a result, lends the speaker speed and dynamism.
Inspired by our flagship 360 loudspeaker is a magnet-mounted trim piece, featuring fine concentric grooves redolent of the surface of a vinyl record and an electro-formed Linn logo which serves as a tweeter guard.
