Linn Ekos 2 swing test

Hello! I am in the process of selling a Ekos 2 and trying to figure out how to do a swing test. When I watch a youtube clip showing this being performed I noticed that the arm-rest had been removed so that the arm could make a larger ”swing”, not being limited by the arm rest. With the armrest in pl...

Re: LP12 Building Advice

I have now checked the latest Rega tonearm offerings and think that especially the RB330 at 440€ and RB880 at 780€ could be very interesting alternatives if building a budget LP12. Both Circus bearings, steel chassis, standard motors and Majik power supplies should be available for little money thes...

Re: LP12 Building Advice

I can not really understand your argument. You can buy both the Majik and Kore sub-chassis with a Rega mount. So Linn obviously do not have a problem with people putting Rega arms on the LP12, and why would they? You also give a good explanation yourself why there is no Rega variant of Keel when you...

Re: Headphone amp?

Sweet!
Been waiting for this for more than 10 years.
What headphones have been used during development?
I assume headphone socket at the back and a mechanical volume knob at the front?
Is it designed to be plugged directly to a source or does it gain performance with a good preamplifier in between?

If there is a market for a new Kikkin....

And I would prefer it with a trditional volume control ;-)

Its a no brainer (easy for me to say)

Spreading your hifi budget on two systems will not get you anywhere.
You will still get serious money for these items as long as they function (they will not work forever).

Yes, I know component supply is an issue with very fast lifecycles for some electronic parts.

I use Autodesk Inventor, it can be downloaded and used for free if you have a child in swedish college (gymnasium), not allowed for commercial use though. Inventor is easy to learn and have built in tutorials.

Re: JBL 3677

Ok, I missunderstood the purpose of moving the ports. I thought you wanted to tune port to speaker element distance. Also I forgot to say that you may rotate the whole enclosure to get the ports horisontally aligned, during tuning. There are many variables to play with... Just looking at the ports S...
