The Bas System delivers lowerfrequency sound with m ore im pact,eficiency and dram aticaly les distortion thanks to our new Power DAC technology.Builtfrom theground up,thisnew Linn technology com binesDAC and am p into a single step –thusextending thedigitalpathand reducing los. PowerDAC ishighlyeficient,ultra-low-noise,and providesthe perfectplatform fordriving the lower bas system in 360. W hen coupled with the prodigious excursion capabilty of the m atched lower bas drive units, 360 produces seism ic, realistic and distortion-free bas thatwil seriously move you. 360ARRAY:ADAPTIVE BIASCONTROL Our new Adaptive Bias Control amplifier technology is critical to the superlative perform ance oftweeter,m idrange and upperbas drive units – com prising the al-new 360 Aray. Adaptive Bias Controlelim inates distortion from the amplifiers using real-time, dynamic m anagem ent and corection; ensuring that they behave attheirabsolute optim um in alscenarios– foraltypesofm usic,atalkindsoflistening levels, and ataltim es. DISPERSION 360 poseses extraordinary dispersion characteristics. The curvaceous front of each speakertapers from botom to top,with shaped radi specificaly m atched to each individualdrive unit. The speakers’ constituent drive units are placed perfectlyflush within thisundulating bafle, so thattheyem anatesound,outand awayfrom the speaker, entirely without obstruction. These elem ents result in a speaker which produces precisely the same tonality in every direction, reinforcing the sound-stage of the original recording.
