Woodnote SOLO

Product information "Woodnote SOLO"

WHY A WOODNOTE SOLO?

Because music isn't just streamed – it's experienced.

The Woodnote SOLO transforms digital data into pure emotion: With its innovative D/A converter design, DSD re-sampling, and an ultra-linear power supply featuring an R-core transformer, it sets new standards in audiophile sound reproduction.

The intuitive app control enables seamless streaming in studio quality. Thanks to the strict separation of digital and analog circuitry, the result is a sound image of remarkable clarity, naturalness, and depth – made for those who expect more from their music.

MAGIC FOR ANY SYSTEM

The Woodnote SOLO is more than just a streaming DAC – it's the perfect fusion of innovation and emotion, the heart of any audiophile dream system. Featuring state-of-the-art streaming technology, effortless network connectivity via LAN or Wi-Fi, and a wide range of inputs – including HDMI, USB, and an excellent headphone output – it’s a true all-rounder. With external USB drives supported, the SOLO also becomes a top-tier CD player. But its real secret lies in its ability to unite technology and emotion in perfect harmony.

DSD RESAMPLING

We are the only manufacturer to use an innovative two-stage converter design, which we call a de-constructed DAC. In the digital domain, a synchronous re-sampling and delta-sigma conversion produce a high-precision 1-bit signal (DSD). In the analog domain, volume control and DSD filtering are handled by the converter module – with an impressive bandwidth of 100 kHz. This unique concept ensures a completely natural and uncolored musical experience.

SYSTEM APPROACH

The Woodnote SOLO pairs perfectly with power amplifiers and integrated amps from virtually any manufacturer. Of course, it can also be used with active loudspeakers. But the real highlight is its synergy with our Musicbook POWER II. Together, these two LINDEMANN components form the perfect team for exceptional sound quality and stunning dynamics!

MOVE
WHY MOVE? Because this speaker moves you – not just emotionally, but conceptually. It challenges everything we thought we knew about the perfect loudspeaker. The MOVE is different. And yet absolutely time-coherent. It will amaze you every single day! It’s no secret: LINDEMANN has been building high-end network players with exceptional sound for years. Now we proudly present the MOVE – a monitor speaker that’s far more than just an addition to our portfolio. MOVE represents a radically new approach. A true rethink of the loudspeaker concept. We re-evaluated every detail and developed a completely new design for high-resolution music playback. A speaker that moves you – highly refined, detailed, natural. Or simply: just right. CONCEPT Unlike conventional speakers, the MOVE is a point source design built around a full-range driver. The entire frequency spectrum is reproduced by a single membrane – completely coherent, without a loss-prone crossover. The voice coil is essentially connected directly to the amplifier output. A super tweeter extends the upper frequency range from 10 kHz to 36 kHz, delivering extraordinary transparency – especially with high-resolution recordings. INNER VALUES The full-range driver in the MOVE is engineered down to the finest detail for a completely lossless reproduction of the amplifier signal. The long-excursion voice coil is centered solely by a newly developed rubber surround, eliminating the need for a traditional centering spider. Even the smallest nuances of the amplifier can fully unfold. One of the key design focuses was energy storage in the cabinet material. The result: a housing made from high-density fiberboard with just 12 mm wall thickness and minimal energy retention. The amplifier signal is converted directly into sound – delivering a particularly clear, energetic playback with excellent bass performance. SYSTEM THINKING The MOVE is the perfect match for our high-resolution network players – whether the MUSICBOOK Combo or the new WOODNOTE Combo. In combination with our active bass extension GROOVE, it forms a fully active reference-class speaker system with bass response down to 25 Hz. The perfect source for this setup? The MUSICBOOK SOURCE or the WOODNOTE SOLO. These flexible combinations allow you to create your ideal setup – for an unparalleled listening experience and pure musical enjoyment.
MOVE mini
WHY MOVE mini? The MOVE mini is the award-winning “little sister” of the MOVE – sharing the same premium concept but in a more compact form. Thanks to its size, it’s ideal for use as a desktop monitor or bookshelf speaker. It also makes a brilliant audiophile alternative to conventional soundbars. The MOVE mini is designed for discerning listeners – not for volume junkies or party lovers. Its strengths lie in exceptional resolution at room volume, rich tonal color, and true musicality. The balance and especially the resolution of the MOVE mini are a clear statement. Not just at this price point! SOUND. SPOT ON. Just like its big “sister” MOVE, the MOVE mini is a point source loudspeaker based on a full-range driver. A single voice coil and diaphragm cover the entire audible range – supported by a super tweeter from 10 kHz upwards for maximum transparency and air. Without a classic crossover, using only a passive frequency response correction – for a homogeneous, natural sound, even in nearfield listening. REDUCED TO THE MAX. The MOVE mini features a high-precision full-range driver with flat diaphragm geometry, mono suspension and ultra-low moving mass – for direct, detailed, and distortion-free sound. The cabinet is made of a high-density fiber composite and uses only 9 mm wall thickness. Thanks to minimal energy storage, it delivers outstanding clarity in the midrange and impressive low-end performance. SYSTEM THINKING. The MOVE mini is the perfect speaker for music lovers with the highest expectations in sound quality. In combination with our new network player Woodnote COMBO, it creates a system that leaves nothing to be desired. A truly minimalist setup for maximum listening pleasure. Thanks to its versatility, the MOVE mini also performs brilliantly with virtually any other audio source – delivering an exceptional sound experience and pure musical enjoyment!

Musicbook POWER II
Configuration: POWER II 500
WHY A MUSICBOOK POWER II? What defines a truly great power amplifier? Sufficient output, clean measurements with low distortion and high damping factor, maybe even high efficiency. While all of these are important, they say little about the musical experience it can deliver. A genuinely outstanding amplifier can drive a loudspeaker in such a way that every last nuance of the music becomes audible — effortlessly and with authority. The Musicbook POWER II is not only the perfect partner for the Musicbook SOURCE II, it also knows how to extract the very best from your speakers. Naturally, it delivers excellent measurements and consumes very little power in operation. SECOND GENERATION Externally unchanged, the POWER II introduces key improvements over its predecessor: In the Musicbook POWER II, voltage amplification is handled by a dedicated analog stage based on a top-tier amplifier chip. The N-CORE module acts as a powerful buffer, ensuring a high damping factor and absolute stability. This hybrid concept delivers significantly better sound quality than conventional Class D amplifiers. We call it a Class A-D amplifier. TECHNOLOGY TO THE LIMIT The Musicbook POWER II is a state-of-the-art Class D amplifier. Its "N-CORE" design — short for "Encore" — is nothing less than a revolution. The technical specs are outstanding: extremely low distortion, ultra-high damping factor, and a linear frequency response up to 50 kHz. Even more important: distortion remains minimal at high levels and in the treble, and the frequency response is completely independent of loudspeaker impedance. The connected speaker performs exactly as it should — under total control. The result is a highly musical, resonance-free and colorless sound experience. DOUBLE THE POWER A standout feature of the Musicbook POWER II is its ability to operate in vertical bi-amping mode, allowing one amplifier per channel. Each speaker is then driven separately in its bass and mid/high section. This requires speakers with dedicated terminals for each range. Many loudspeakers respond to this configuration with greater clarity in the low mids and an overall more transparent sound. Thanks to the ten-step bass level adjustment, the sound can also be easily adapted to your room and speaker positioning.
