About Chris

My experience with Linn starts in 1976 at the ripe young age of 20. I had a good summer job and saved enough to buy an LP12! It was such a startling improvement in the way it brought me the music.  Music is the expression of emotion and it carried it in spades.  The improvement was not a bass and treble kind of spectacularity, although it did, but conveying the emotion of the performers.  I was now listening to new and different types of music that I was previously unaware of.

I conveyed my enthusiasm to the owners of the high end stereo store I was working at in 1978.  We became with my suggestion a Linn dealer as well as Audio Research and Quad electrostatic speakers.

In 1980 I was sent to a sales training course as was Larry Marcus. We bonded over mutual love of Quads and formed a life long friendship that continues to this day.

My enthusiasm for the LP12 and Linn products in general led me to working with the then Linn distributor Audiophile Systems.
I jumped at the chance of showing Linn Products and being of service with 45 years of setup experience.
 

Linn & Paragon: A Relationship Built for the Future While Honoring the Past


Linn's forward-thinking approach to audio technology perfectly complements our vision for the future of home audio. At the heart of this collaboration lies a shared passion for delivering unparalleled audio experiences. Together, we are building a relationship poised to shape the future of home audio while remaining rooted in the timeless traditions that have defined our respective legacies.

While the dedicated Linn audition room is still in progress, we have received the first round of demo units from Linn and have set them up in our Modern Music Center (MMC). They are available now for audition and we have more demos on the way, including the powerful and advanced 360 Loudspeaker System!

Let's take a look now at the gear featured in our MMC Linn system as of 3/8/24:
