영국 LINN 린 사의 KABER 카버 스피커 입니다.(ending)

 

90년도 후반에 출시된 LINN 린 사의 KABER 카버 LS-500 스피커 입니다. 레퍼런스 급으로 출시된 반면 국내에서는

 

IMF 라는 상황이 겹쳐있었기 떼문에 빛을 못본 스피커 이기도 합니다. 북쉘프 타입의 슬림함과 동시에 묵직한 플로어

 

스텐딩 방식의 톨보이 스피커 이므로 가정에서 적합한 사이즈로 사용하기 출중하며 제가 들어본 린 스피커중 가장

 

벨런스가 좋고 배합이 부드러운 스피커 입니다. 린인티엠프나 네임네이트2 같은 스피커 들과 환상의 조합을 맛보실수

 

있으며 바이어와이어링 트라이와이어링 바이엠핑 모두 지원되는 스피커 입니다. 사진과 같이 상태는 아주깨끗하나

A slim elegant floorstanding speaker, the Kaber delivers exceptional performance without encroaching upon your living space. This matched pair in Black Ash stand firmly on heavy Linn Kustone Polymer Granite Bases with Floor Spikes, an expensive optional extra when new.  The bases are not only kind to your carpets but also providing rigidity and substantial mass to the base of the speaker which improves imaging and tightens the bass performance.

Kabers are designed to be extremely flexible, and can be used in various passive ot active configurations :

• Single wired
• Bi-wired
• Tri-wired
• Bi-amped
• Tri--amped
• Tri-amped ACTIV (dealer set up only)

The different configurations provide an upgrade path which will allow owners to gradually improve the performance of their systems over time without having to invest in new loudspeakers. Played through a Quad 606, even in basic single wired passive mode the speakers sound authoritative, with good imaging and detail, a slightly dry but tight, musical bass, and open mid-range. Very pleasant, but also fast and exciting with good transient response when driven by a decent amp.

Typical of the thought put into the design, the speakers incorporate novel, frameless grilles to avoid mechanical rattling, buzzing and diffraction.

In short, exceptional performance and great build quality from the maker that produced the legendary Kan, Sara and Isobarik loudspeakers in a previous model range.

Supplied in excellent, little used condition with original packaging materials and a copy of the user manual - all for around 25% of the original new price.
