Using the AKURATE KONTROL with a Linn UNIDISK
player
There are advantages in operation when using the AKURATE
KONTROL with a Linn UNIDISK player:
• When a disc is loaded into the UNIDISK player and the Linn Disc
source is selected as the source on the AKURATE KONTROL,
the AKURATE KONTROL will automatically switch to the required
input for the loaded disc.
• The AKURATE KONTROL will choose an appropriate surround
sound format for a disc’s audio stream.
