Linn EXakt akudorik SPEakErS
Linn has released an active pair of stand-mount four-way loudspeakers: Exakt Akudorik. In the case of the Exakt Akudoriks, they have to be stand-mounted, because the stand houses all the electronics: four 100-watt Linn Chakra power amplifiers, Linn Dynamik power supplies, and an Exakt Aktiv electronic crossover, with crossover frequencies at 400Hz, 3.61kHz, and 8.82kHz. ‘ A stunning work of engineering beauty, Exakt Akudorik combines the ground-breaking performance of Exakt with compact styling that will complement any room,’ said Nigel Ng, of Advance Audio, which distributes Linn in Australia. ‘ Exakt eliminates magnitude and phase distortion, corrects for drive unit variation, and optimises your speakers for your room, giving you incredible performance that’s personalised for you and, like its bigger brother, the Exakt Akubarik, the Akudorik is fed a digital signal using the Exakt Link connection from an Akurate Exakt DSM.’ The Exakt Akudorik loudspeakers feature the same Linn ‘3K Driver Array’ found on the Akubarik: a 13mm silk dome super-tweeter; 25mm dome tweeter, 75mm dome midrange and 165mm doped paper cone bass driver, all operating from a cabinet measuring just 350×228×325mm (WDH) for an internal volume of 12 litres. The cabinet is ported at the rear. Linn claims a frequency range for the Akudorik of 40Hz–33kHz. ‘ The Exakt Engine is programmable by Linn specialists to optimise performance for your room and your speaker location,’ Ng told Australian Hi-Fi Magazine. ‘ You also get an independent digital volume control, a digital to analogue converter and a power amplifier for every channel, so there are four for each speaker.’ For further information, please contact Advance Audio on (02) 9561 0799 or visit the website at www.advanceaudio.com.au
