Introduction

The UNIDISK SC player is a precision-engineered, high-fidelity audio and video source component with integrated surround-sound processing and control, designed to facilitate access to all of the latest high-definition, high-quality music and movie formats and deliver superb multi-channel playback.

The UNIDISK SC player features Linn’s proprietary SILVER DISK ENGINE technology which, unlike the signal processing systems within the majority of multi-format players, identifies source material and processes signals in their native format. CD, Super Audio CD, DVD-Video and DVD-Audio are therefore handled independently and optimised with the precise decoding solution for which they were designed, making the UNIDISK SC player the only no-compromise universal source and control component.

We believe that the development of a high-performance universal solution for all quality disc formats allows us to satisfy your increasingly diverse needs. Regardless of which formats the recording and film industries choose to support, you may rest assured that the UNIDISK range will remain the benchmark for versatility, performance and quality for many years to come.

Important note

Whilst every effort has been made to ensure universal compatibility with all approved disc types, it is impossible to guarantee full operation of every function of the Linn UNIDISK SC player with every disc that is on sale now or in the future. We have tested many of the disc types that are currently available but many discs that are on sale at this time do not conform to the published and accepted formal specifications. For this reason, we are unable to accept any responsibility for the player being unable to playback any particular disc. If you have discs that do not play on the Linn UNIDISK SC, which are subsequently found to play on other brands of player, then this does not imply
