linn 328a

tchad,
thx so much for all the great info. especially on drum recording and sansamp!

I saw that you use linn speakers. tried to get info (and pricing) on them but could not find much on the web. the linn website does not even mention them. I have a old home stereo setup from linn that I love and use to reference.

could you give some info and thoughts about these monitors?!

thx again.

I had heard tell of a bit of trouble at LINN. Didn't know how this would affect the 328s but thought I'd mention it all the same:

That's what I paid for a pair 2 years ago.

Highly recommended even at the high price. Linn never actively advertised the 328As as it was their entry into the pro market which they have since, due to downsizing, put on hold. Still producing for the high end consumer market though. I've heard the Artikulat 350A (active/floor standing) model are very similar to the 328s. Don't know anything about that myself.
The best thing about the 328s is they hardly change timbre when listening at elevated or reduced levels(great sensitivity). The lo end which extends way below any speaker I've ever heard, does not diminish when listening at conversation levels, (almost sounds like you have a sub woofer).
Prohibitive price, yes. I saved and sold to get them. Never regretted it.
I think the older you get the more you pamper yourself in some ways. I'm getting to be an old dog and those things pamper me everyday.
Bring it on.
