I've just got a dealer confirmation that my Selekt Edition order has been confirmed with Linn. I'm very excited!!

I thought it would be fun to see who else has got an order in for a Selekt Edition, what they ordered and when it was made so we might stand a chance of figuring out when the orders might land in our laps... also it gives us a way to build the excitement while we wait!! I get a feeling the waiting is going to linger on!

If no one wants to play that's OK, the thread will die a death naturally.

I'll start:
Edition in Black, Organik, Stereo Line out.

My order was placed 3 weeks ago and I was also quoted 4 to 5 weeks.

I have ordered:
Edition in Black, Organik, with stereo power amp.

This has got me thinking of how to update my signature when it arrives. I am thinking:
Selekt Edition/Organik/StereoPA

So a Selekt Ed. (w/Organik & power amp module) is better than ADSM/3 + A4200 for your passive Doriks?

According to the Linn Docs pages the Selekt DSMs are differentiated as such:

SDSM/0 = Classic
SDSM/1 = Edition

Here are some suggestions to the other spec parts:

Standard DAC = S
Katalyst DAC = K
Organik DAC = O

M - Mono
S - Stereo
3, 4, 5 etc etc for number of channels.

LO - Line Out
PA - Power Amp

So mine might be SDSM/1:O/SLO = Looks a bit cryptic, God knows how that will settle but it's a good starter for 10.

I would say so yes, having heard how good the Edition hub and organik is. Source first and all that.
Of course, but in theory you can add Utopik to both ADSM/3 and A4200 ...

I still don't understand how the headphones and sub outputs work in the Selekt Edition (with the same DAC of the line out / power amp module?).

Word is that there are separate standard DACs for the headphone and sub outputs.

Dealer told me that they don't work without a DAC fitted so he assumes some kind of path back from the cart DACs, I'm not sure about this but who am I to say.

A ticket into the helpdesk will resolve this.

From what I understand there is a standard DAC onboard that outputs to the headphone socket and the sub out phono sockets. I don’t use headphones so no interest in this but as I have a sub the sub out was a game changer for me. Apparently I will be able to select different levels of output to the sub and also set a cut off to the output of my ‘Doriks if I want.

I'm not sure of the price, but what was discussed elsewhere is that the headphone and sub standard DACs are already built into the box.
The price is for a Selekt Edition Organik with power amp module.

For me headphones are important and I want the same quality for them.

So, trying to bring this thread back on track... :) there are only 2 confirmed orders so far. @Billz and I with Billz 3 weeks ahead of me.

Any others want to confess to ordering one?
