Linn Brings Music To Any Room
Meet Kiko, the latest addition to Linn’s family of network music systems. Beautifully designed, sleek and compact, Kiko is small enough to find a place in any living room, kitchen or bedroom. Bring great music to any room with Kiko. Transform any sound from your computer by playing it through Kiko – instantly make your iTunes collection sing and get the very best from online apps such as Spotify, YouTube, Netflix and iPlayer.
You can play music wirelessly by sending sound from your PC, Mac, iPad or iPhone, or connect your living room together with Kiko to get brilliant sound quality from HD TV, Blu-Ray movies and game consoles. Available in six contemporary colors – from low-key Back to Black to funky Blue Monday – Kiko is a music system that fits perfectly with the way you live.
Gilad Tiefenbrun, Linn Managing Director, said “Music is such an important part of our lives. The way we consume music continues to evolve and the internet has become a hugely important source of content with music and movie services like Spotify, Napster, YouTube, Netflix and catch-up TV services. Our Linn DS range, which consists of models right across the price spectrum, has also evolved since we first launched in 2007. You can now play music wirelessly from computers and mobile devices, stream online music and movies, and connect everything in the modern living room through your Linn system, simplifying your listening experience and making everything sound better. And now with Kiko we’re helping to bring great sound beyond the living room, to all the social areas of the house where music is being consumed more-or-less constantly.”
