Re: Classik is too good for a small office

In a work environment (outside your home), I would have to agree. You would generally never be able to listen to it at a high enough volume to hear the major differences to justify the price. Most of the time people just get something to have as background noise to help them work.

However, I actually bought my Linn Classik/Tyler Acoustic Reference Monitors for my home office. I found I listened to my equipment in my home office more than I did in my main room since I spend the majority of the day there working. This is the reason I ended up going a bit overboard with the setup for my office space.

In addition to why I ended up buying it, I actually got a great deal on the entire setup. Just before Linn recently introduced the new Classik (with the inter-room connectivity) I ended up picking up a brand new Classik for only $1000 delivered (basically half off.) The Tyler Acoustics Reference Monitors were also an incredible bargain. A gentleman down the street from me was getting married and selling his entire setup (I mean everything - although I didn't ask why), and had only just bought the speakers 2 weeks earlier (I confirmed this with the invoice.) For $1500 (Retail $3200) and no shipping or tax to pay plus it included the stands and a premium finish - I just couldn't pass up the deal.

I still need to work on getting some better speaker cable as the Linn speaker cable isn't that great. It's been a pain however as the BFA connectors tend to limit your options unless you terminate it yourself.

Eric
