Our top model is trusted by the most demanding users, from Westdeutscher Rundfunk to the audiophile label TACET to the headphone specialists from Sennheiser and AKG. It is not without reason that the Linear belongs to the reference class of its genre.

When you put on the headphones and insert your favorite CD, the Linear creates wonderful worlds in front of your inner eye. Physical, rich bass and a filigree resolution unfold your favorite tracks in full splendor over the entire frequency spectrum. Carefully selected components and an extremely sophisticated circuit architecture form the basis of the frontrunner.

Masterful in every situation

With your needs in mind at all times, it allows impressive listening pleasure thanks to three amplification settings - with a wide variety of headphones and a wide variety of sound sources. Of course, we took into account the different performance requirements and efficiencies of the headphone types available on the market.

If you would like to share the joy of this quality of music playback with family and friends: Our multiple test winner enjoys playing two headphones simultaneously. Of course, the listening pleasure remains just as fabulous. The two parallel outputs of the discrete Class A transistor output stage serve as the basis for twice the music enjoyment.
