Important Note: Disc formats

Whilst every effort has been made to ensure universal compatibility with all approved

disc types, it is impossible to guarantee full operation of every function of the Linn

Classik Movie System with every disc that is on sale now or in the future.We have tested

many of the disc types that are currently available but many discs that are on sale at this

time do not conform to the published and accepted formal specifications. For this

reason, we are unable to accept any responsibility for the player being unable to

playback any particular disc. If you have discs that do not play on the Linn Classik

Movie System, which are subsequently found to play on other brands of player, this does

not imply that the Linn Classik Movie System is in any way at fault.There are many

websites that display details of discs that have known playback problems and we

suggest that you consult with this published data before you make any judgements

regarding the Linn Classik Movie System’s playback abilities. We welcome the receipt of

all suspect discs as this may assist us in ensuring that the Linn Classik Movie System

continues to develop but cannot accept discs from end users on the basis that we have

made any warranty about being able to learn how to play them.

Please consult the Linn end user website at www.linn.co.uk where you will be able to

find links to some of the various sites that list suspect discs.

CONNECT Feature

This chapter describes how to operate the CONNECT feature, for use when two or more

Classik Movie Systems are linked together.

About CONNECT

The CONNECT feature allows you to link a maximum of four Classik Movie Systems (that

operate as receiver units), to a further Classik Movie System (that operates as a driver

unit).

Cable connections between the driver and receiver units allow communication of front

panel or handset signals, plus the feeding of the source audio signal (CD sound, tuner

signal etc) from the driver to the receivers.This allows remote control of the driver unit

from any of the receivers.You could, for example, listen to a CD from a receiver unit in a

bedroom even though the disc itself is in the driver unit in your lounge.

You can also control all the receiver units from the driver unit.This is a useful function

when holding a party, as the same CD or radio station can be heard in up to five

different rooms.

The driver and receivers can also operate as stand-alone units.

Setting up a CONNECT system

Link the Classik Movie Systems using CAT5 cable (available from your Linn

retailer/distributor - standard computer CAT5 cable will not suffice).

●Lay a suitable length of cable as you might a telephone extension (along skirting

boards, around doorways), ensuring it is firmly secured to walls etc.

●Disconnect all units from the mains supply.

●Connect the cable to the units as shown in the diagram below.

Alternatively, have your CONNECT system installed by your local Linn

retailer/distributor.

The driver unit feeds a standard stereo audio signal to the receivers, therefore a pair of

suitable speakers need to be attached to each receiver in the system.

DRIVER

RECEIVER

CONNECT Feature

Main Mode and Local Mode

When a Classik Movie System is linked into a CONNECT system as a receiver, it has two

main modes of operation:

Main Mode - In this mode the receiver has control over the audio sources on the driver

unit.

Local Mode - In this mode the receiver functions as a stand-alone unit.

Switching between Main Mode and Local Mode

To toggle between Main Mode and Local Mode on a receiver unit:

●Press MAIN / LOCAL on the front panel.

The front panel displays MAIN if the unit is in Main Mode, or displays nothing if the unit

is in Local Mode.

NOTES:

When in Main Mode a receiver’s own sources are unavailable.This means that you

cannot listen to a CD on a receiver without first switching to Local Mode.

The driver unit cannot select a receiver as a source.This means you cannot use the driver

unit to listen to a CD that is playing on a receiver.

The audio signal fed from the driver to the receivers is a standard stereo signal. Surround

sound modes (Pro Logic, DTS etc) are unavailable on a receiver in Main Mode.

As the driver unit always operates in Main Mode, pressing MAIN / LOCAL on the driver’s

front panel will not switch the unit to Local Mode. MAIN is not displayed on the driver’s

front panel.

Controlling the driver unit from a receiver unit

When in Main Mode, a receiver can choose any audio source available on the driver unit

(CD/tuner/DVD audio signal/aux. audio source) and is able to control playback of the

source: you can skip through tracks on a CD, scan through the tuner’s presets etc. Almost

all of the functions of the Classik Movie System are available to you.

Only one source on the driver unit is available at any one time.This means that you

cannot listen to one of the driver’s tuner presets from a receiver while someone else is

listening to a CD playing on the driver.

The front panel of a receiver will display the same information as the driver’s front panel.

Any other receivers in the system that are in Main Mode will also display the information

shown on the driver’s front panel.

NOTE:

A receiver unit cannot:

●control the volume of the driver unit

●mute and unmute the driver unit

●put the driver unit into standby mode.

Party Mode

When your driver unit is in Party Mode it has limited control over the receivers.This is

useful when holding a party as the same source signal (a CD, radio station etc) is fed to

all the receivers.

Party Mode can only be turned on or off from the driver, however each receiver can elect

to leave or join the party.

'adjust'

Volume control in Party Mode

The driver unit can control the volume of itself and of any receivers that are in Main

Mode.This allows the receivers to have different volume settings to that of the driver

and to each other.

When the volume on the driver unit is changed, any difference in volume settings of the

receivers remains constant. For example, suppose that volume on the driver unit is set at

40 and the receivers are set at 65. If the volume on the driver is reduced to 30, then the

volume setting on the receivers will drop to 55. If the volume on the driver is reduced to

0, the volume on the receivers will drop to 25. Continuing to lower the volume on the

driver will reduce the volume on the receivers to 0.

Party Poop

Receiver units can leave a party allowing them to operate in Local Mode.

To activate Party Poop on a receiver unit:

●Press ‘adjust’ on the front panel to bring up the volume display.

●Hold ‘adjust’ until the front panel displays PARTY POOP.

To rejoin the party, repeat the above steps.

To activate Party Mode on the driver unit:

●Press ‘adjust’ on the front panel to bring up the volume display.

●Hold ‘adjust’ until PARTY ON is shown on the display.

All receivers are automatically placed in Party Mode and display PARTY ON on their front

panels.

NOTE:

When Party Mode is activated, any receivers that are in standby mode will be switched

on and put into Party Mode.

To deactivate Party Mode on the driver unit:

●Hold ‘adjust’ on the front panel until PARTY OFF is shown on the display.

Restrictions to Party Mode

When in Party Mode certain restrictions are applied (receivers are assumed to be in Main

Mode):

●Changing the volume of the driver unit will also change the volume of the

receivers, however changing the volume on a receiver will only effect that receiver

(see next section).

●Muting will only affect the driver or receiver unit being adjusted.

●The receivers cannot change or control the source on the driver unit. If you try to

change the source on the driver unit via a receiver, or press MAIN / LOCAL on a

receiver, **PARTY** is shown on the front panel display.

●Putting the driver unit into standby mode will also put the receivers into standby

and will deactivate Party Mode, whereas putting a receiver into standby will only

affect that receiver.

●Bringing the driver unit out of standby and re-entering Party Mode will also bring

the receivers out of standby, whereas bringing a receiver out of standby will affect

that receiver only.
