Description
Linn 119
With Linn heritage, we probably ought not be surprised by how capable and appealing the new 119 loadspeakers are. But, actually, we were 🙂
These, along with the new 150 floor-standers, are a breath of fresh air.
With performance exceeding realistic expectation, sensible pricing and excellent (UK) construction and finishing, these should make a lot of friends.
Optional finishes are oak and Walnut real wood veneer, satin black and white.
We have opted for the natural wood options for the demonstration examples.

119
Passive bookshelf loudspeaker
From £2,500
Linn 119 features top-quality drive units which deliver superb linear performance. Drawing from what we learned during development of our 360 loudspeaker, drive units are mounted flush with the front of the cabinet, with no grille, to minimise obstruction of sound waves and improve movement.
Focus has been placed upon component quality throughout the speaker. The passive crossover in 119 is created for signal purity, lending the speakers speed and dynamism.
Inspired by our reference 360 loudspeaker is a magnet-mounted drive unit trim, featuring a series of fine, etched arcs evoking the surface of a vinyl record, and an electro-formed Linn logo tweeter guard.
Optional black or silver, mild-steel pedestal stands are available for mounting 119 speakers.
Exakt
119’s 2-way layout makes it is easier and more affordable than ever to upgrade your system to Linn’s groundbreaking Exakt technology.
Internal crossovers can be bypassed in just a couple of minutes, and the four channels of amplification, DAC modules and Exakt digital crossover required to complete this neat yet extraordinary system can be contained within Selekt DSM. Just add speaker cables!
