The display is really nice. It only lights up when a track comes on. It doesn't show album art, though, like the Aurender N20 does.

I hooked up the Klimax directly via Ethernet today, and bypassed the SOtM network and it still functions seamlessly with Roon.

The online Linn Owner's Manual, once I finally found it on the Net, though, leaves a lot of to be desired. It's not very helpful and there are numerous spelling, usage, and syntax errors. It looks like it was written by someone for whom English was a second language.

Here's an excerpt, copied verbatim (including spelling errors):

"Connect you PC/MAC to this socket via a USB cable and select LINN DSM as your Audio Device.
PC/MAC will typically transcode the audio into PCM format before feeding down the USB cable to the 384k"
