After writing a little in our previous blog post about Linn's Exakt & Space Optimisation technology, our friends at Kudos had this little announcement for us!

Linn Exakt & Kudos: what’s the buzz?

Kudos Audio has been working with industry leaders Linn to bring the incredible performance of Linn Exakt into the Kudos range of loudspeakers.

Launched by Linn in 2013, Exakt is a ground-breaking new technology that has revolutionised the world of hi-fi. It delivers the most direct connection ever made between the listener and the artist, and turns the loudspeaker into an intelligent, connected, software upgradeable product.

Exakt enables a wide range of performance - and personalisation-enhancing capabilities in design, in manufacture and in-home. Sources of noise and distortion that exist in the traditional analogue hi-fi chain are eliminated so what is heard is a more faithful reproduction of the music as it was recorded.

The Linn Exaktbox can be software-configured to optimise performance for any loudspeaker and amplifier combination, delivering all the benefits of Exakt technology.

In a system using an Exaktbox, the original analogue crossover in the loudspeaker is bypassed and instead, the Akurate Exaktbox performs the crossover digitally, while applying Linn’s Exakt technology to eliminate distortion, correct for drive unit variation and optimise the loudspeakers’ performance for the room.

In September 2014, Linn launched Exakt support for the iconic Bowers & Wilkins Nautilus. Now the team at Kudos is delighted to be working closely with Linn to deliver Exakt support for its three top-of-the-range speakers: the Super 10, Super 20 and the new flagship Titan 808.
