Re: Wanted: Keltik Spikes

You can buy M10 threaded bolts and grind a point on them. I did this due to a thick pile carpet to raise the speakers up a bit.

Linn Ekos SE

Hi there, hope everyone is doing well and staying safe - haven't posted in a while but was lucky enough to fulfill an ambition and recently received my dream tonearm - a bright and shiny new from factory Ekos SE to replace my very satisfying and much loved Ekos 2.

Re: Stacking Tundras

I just use the one Exaktbox with 6 channels, that's all you need as Keltik is a 3 way speaker. In the process of integrating a subwoofer to the system, but using mini-dsp for this. This is quite "involved" :) Sorry cant help you on using your Tundra's on the bass drivers, I assume the one option you...

Re: Stacking Tundras

Hi, just caught up with this thread I haven’t been online for a while. As mentioned I do indeed run two Tundra stereo amps on my Keltiks for high and mid duty (never tried on bass - run 4 channel Bryson instead). I have found the bass drivers on the keltiks respond well to power and on paper bryston...

Re: Lots of Lejonklou amps in a Linn Exakt system

Getting there... running Keltiks exakted with 2 x tundras and 4 channel bryston on bass. Love my Tundra amps. The styling is so reminiscent of Linn's LK series.
I may replace the bryston in the future with Tundras. And of course I need to upgrade them to latest config.

Not sure it's related to the original posters question on the thread but it was asked a few posts up. I have heard a demo of radikals (akurate to Klimax) at Billy Vs near London. There is a clear musical improvement going to Klimax. Both sound great but once you hear the Klimax after the Akurate ver...

I persevered and reset things getting the tranq as close to touching as possible and suddenly the music was back with the fi...

I have considered upgrading my v1.2 to a version 2.0 but now with Tarandus I may have to do both. What would the cost be Thomas and is there...

Re: A tracking weight experiment for LP12 owners

Could it also be connected to the arm compliance? All the Linn arms are medium compliance so maybe it's no coincidence that a common vtf range is the more optimal by pure listening test.

My preference was 1.7 vtf (according to arm) 1.9 anti-skate, although this one was more subtle. The vtf above read 1.72g on my electronic scale. System: lp1...

What's the consensus on using Lyra spt cleaning fluid on the stylus tip as a cleaning agent? I have used it and initially was impressed with the results but not so sure regarding longer term use.
