The last time Peter was in Grand Cayman with Alison was in November 2023 (see here) when he was installing an LP12-50 for a client. Approximately18 months later, they were travelling there again! This time to install the amazing Klimax 360 system with integrated amplification and the wonderful Klimax DSM System Hub. Logistically, this was much more difficult to organise than just the shipping of The LP12–50. A large pallet had to be used in order to accommodate the speakers and allow them to travel safely!

The location and space available for the speaker placement within the apartment was extremely challenging, as you will see from the pictures. This really was the only practical location for the system within the apartment.

An added complication was the that the apartment is open plan, and its shape is complex. Additionally, the ceiling heights vary in different areas of the listening environment! But this is where Linn Space Optimisation comes into its own.

Having the amplification integrated into the rear of the 360 loudspeakers was a huge advantage as all they required was power and signal feed over ethernet cable from the Exakt output on the KDSM Hub.

Using Linn’s fantastic Space Optimisation, he was able to optimise the sound quality from the system within the apartment, eliminating unfavourable room resonances for the listeners despite the fact that the speakers had to be in practical locations as opposed to their optimum locations!

The LP12–50 was updated from the analogue Urika 1 being used previously, to the Ekakt Urika 2.

Additionally, the system has wonderful internet radio using Airable,  Spotify plus Qobuz for the best sound quality streaming. Apple TV was also connected allowing for the best sound possible when watching movies.

The end result of Peter’s hard work: an absolutely wonderful sounding system and a very happy client.
