Awards
‘You will rarely experience a device which
appears visually and acoustically so pleasantly unpretentious and still
captivates the listener from the first note, be it as a headphone amplifier
or a line-level preamp. And the fact that the digital section is currently
state-of-the-art underscores the impression of a device which has been
well conceived in every detail. Norbert Lehmann has successfully applied a
gentle evolution to his classic unit that will make you prick up your ears in
all musical moments.’

‘The listening check immediately revealed that the im-
provement activities have been effective. Regarding fine
dynamics, resolution and tonal neutrality the Linear D MKII gave an impres
-
sive performance, exposing the finest of details and with enough power at
any time to drive higher impedance headphones adequately as well.’
