The Linn AV System
To get the most out of a film you have to do more than simply watch it:you
have to experience it fully,exactly as its creators intended.That means images
and sound must be married together perfectly,giving you the same emotional
impact you would receive in the cinema itself.Without sound of the very
highest quality, every film lacks an essential dimension – and so does your
pleasure in viewing it.
In designing your Linn AV system, we have set out to create the ultimate
experience of cinema and music in the home and every component has
been carefully designed to give you exactly that.No-one knows more than
Linn about designing music systems for the home and we have used that
unique experience and know how to create anAV system which gives you
the same accuracy and purity of sound,even when you are listening to special
effects in an action movie.
AV 5103 System Controller
The heart of the system is the AV 5103 System Controller.This controls
your audio and video sources,to let you choose what you want to watch or
listen to.It can control analogue signals,from a tape recorder or FM tuner,
for example;digital signals,from a CD player or a LaserDisc player,and video
sources,from aTV tuner,video recorder and LaserDisc player.It also decodes
surround encoded materials,includingAC-3,to give you a complete surround
sound experience.With its informative two-line text display,and the option
of on-screen graphics,theAV 5103 System Controller is both powerful and
simple to use.Most operations involve just one key-press on the front panel
or handset.
Despite the simplicity of its front panel,however,almost every aspect of the
System Controller can be configured in exactly the way you want.You can
define and control everything:the inputs you use for each of your sources,
the name of those sources, the surround-sound decoding options and
loudspeaker settings.The System Controller also provides a sophisticated
range of audio and video recording options, allowing you to record several
sources simultaneously without affecting what you are watching or hearing.

AV 5101 Personal Handset
The power and flexibility of the LinnAV system is entirely under your control,
from wherever you are in the room, with the AV 5101 Personal Handset.
This uses a powerful infra-red signal to allow you to select any of the AV
5103 System Controller’s functions with a few simple key presses.
Its uniquely contoured shape makes it extremely comfortable to hold, and
the keys are large, and easy to read and use. It is also equally suitable for
table-top use, if you prefer.
As well as controlling the Linn AV system, and any other Linn products you
may own,the Personal Handset can also learn the commands for your other
equipment,so that your whole system can be controlled with a single handset.
AV 5105 Stereo Power Amplifier
The AV 5105 Stereo PowerAmplifier is the ideal companion to the System
Controller in your AV system. It has the power to cope with the most
demanding cinema effects, while providing the purity and low distortion
needed for the perfect reproduction of music.
EachAV 5105 Stereo PowerAmplifier will drive two of the loudspeakers in
your system,and for the best possible sound we recommend you divide the
output of oneAV 5105 Stereo PowerAmplifier to drive the bass and treble
sections of your centre speaker separately.

AV 5140 Floor-Standing
Loudspeaker
The AV 5140 Floor-Standing Loudspeaker is the perfect choice for use as
the front speakers in a surround sound installation.With film,TV, video,or
music the outstanding bass performance of the AV 5140 Floor-Standing
Loudspeakers,combined with their natural reproduction of voice and music,
will provide you with a totally absorbing and breathtaking cinematic
experience. Their unique stylish shape ensures that they enhance, rather
than dominate, your home.
AV 5120 Compact Loudspeaker
The centre loudspeaker is fundamental to a goodAV system because it has
the task of reproducing the most critical information for music and cinema
sources.We therefore designed theAV 5120 Compact Loudspeaker without
any compromises to give a superior full-range response, together with
especially good bass handling.
As well as giving superb reproduction of music it reproduces speech with
particular accuracy, making it ideal for use with film soundtracks.We also
carefully matched it to the AV 5140 Floor-Standing Loudspeakers so that
sounds which pan across and move between the speakers sound both
accurate and highly dramatic. This gives you the most realistic possible
impression when listening to film and video soundtracks.
TheAV 5120 drive units are screened to ensure that there is no interference
if you place it next to your television.

LINN
AV 5110 Local Loudspeaker
The rear loudspeakers in a surround system are important in creating a
spacious sound for music and provide background noises and special effects
in film soundtracks.These need to be capable of handing the full dynamic
range for AC-3 but only limited range for ProLogic. The AV 5110 Local
Loudspeakers were designed to be compact and stylish,so that they can be
positioned easily in any room.
Despite their size they produce a deceptively full sound with excellent bass
response.For even better performance,and especially if you are usingAC-3,
a recommended alternative is to use a pair of AV 5120 or AV 5140 Floor-
Standing Loudspeakers as the rear surround speakers.
AV 5150 Active Isobarik Bass
Speaker
TheAV 5150Active Isobarik Bass Speaker extends the bass performance of
the whole system to give you totally involving cinematic effects and enhance
the impact of music.We designed the AV 5150Active Isobarik Bass Speaker
to reproduce bass sounds as faithfully as our full-range loudspeakers, with
the result that its contribution to the overall sound is extremely natural and
unobtrusive. Because low frequency sounds are not directional you can
position the bass speaker anywhere convenient in the room.

…Making it real
The Linn AV system has been designed to give you the most exciting and
satisfying experience of cinema it is possible to achieve in the home. Our
aim is to bring you the complete film as its creators intended: with images
and sound working together in the most memorable way. To achieve this
demanding objective we have designed each of our components to give
outstanding performance in their own right while ensuring that each of them
work perfectly with each other.
The result is an integrated system that will give you the most rewarding
experience you can achieve from watching a film, or listening to a music
recording:bringing a new dimension to the way you experience cinema in
the home.

About the AV 5105 Stereo Power
Amplifier
The Linn AV 5105 Stereo Power Amplifier is intended for use in high
performance audio and audio/video systems.It combines high output power,
ruggedness,and ease of use with our passion for quality.It draws on years of
experience of designing and making high quality audio power amplifiers.
Inside the compact case are two completely independent electrically isolated
channels with fully regulated power supplies giving‘dual mono’ performance.
The signal path is DC coupled and servo controlled for the lowest distortion,
cleanest, least coloured sound.The output stage is highly derated for cool,
reliable operation,and the protection circuitry protects extensively against
accidents or abuse.
A signal sensing circuit detects the presence of audio above a very low level
and turns on the main power supplies to the amplifier, bringing the power
amplifier channel from a very low standby power consumption to full
operation.It reverts to the standby condition a few minutes after the input
signal disappears.This is particularly useful in multi-channel surround sound
systems.
The AV 5105 accepts the Linn active crossover modules, automatically
detecting their presence and switching them in circuit as soon as they are
plugged in.This makes playback system upgrades easy.
