The Selekt DSM promises to bring the feeling back to digital audio, and you can find out for yourself, and there is plenty to experience.
Firstly, Selekt DSM's jewel-like dial and smart buttons are ready to be personalised to your wishes, providing instant access to your favourite music by making it possible to operate the product without the need for an app.
The glass dial begins to glow when approached and turns with watch-like precision in response to a touch.
The customisable smart buttons, which have been crafted to feel like piano keys, respond instantly with the detailed music information appearing on the onyx-black OLED display.
The Linn Selekt DSM will fit in with any system. You can have it configured as a dedicated streaming source to drive any separates system, or you can include an integrated amplifier to streamline your system: all you need is to add speakers.
Either way, there's an option to push the performance even further with Katalyst, Linn's cutting-edge DAC architecture.
Selekt DSM's onboard pre-amplifier enables all sources to be connected, including a turntable, for better sound, instantly.
Gilad Tiefenbrun, Linn Managing Director, told StereoNET:
We love the clarity of digital music, but we also love the tactility of physical records. It's easy to feel we've lost touch with the immersive experience of playing a vinyl record – the LP selection, the lift-lower, the anticipation during those first pops and clicks – and that playing music requires only a swipe and a tap.
