Small Amplifier; Big Credentials

Klimax Solo 500 is Linn’s complete redesign from fundamentals of their most successful amplifier ever – Klimax Solo. They have maximised the potential of every cubic millimetre within its machined-from-solid enclosure to create a product that is an improvement over its legendary predecessor in every conceivable way – one that, crucially, still boasts a compact form factor.

With Solo 500, Linn’s latest top-tier innovations powerfully coalesce into the best compact monoblock amplifier they have ever made. The synergistic combination of Adaptive Bias Control and sophisticated hybrid cooling matrix with intelligent fan management, results in a Class AB amplifier that is far greater than the sum of its parts, yet remarkably smaller than its counterparts.

Linn’s engineers

have expertly miniaturised and arranged their flagship amplifier and power supply technologies inside its sleek and minimalist casework to ensure that Solo 500 is a staggering upgrade. It’s the ideal drop-in replacement for existing systems which feature original Solo or 3rd-party amplification. Its neat size lends itself particularly well to active setups and scenarios where space is at a premium.

The holistic approach to its design has culminated in an amplifier that performs optimally from the moment it’s powered on for the first time, and throughout its long lifespan; an amplifier that can be driven hard for protracted listening sessions of wildly dynamic material, and yet remain silently cool; an amplifier with huge available power, devastatingly low noise floor, and eighty-five times lower distortion measurements than the one it replaces. Solo 500 is a small amp, with big credentials.
