What do you think you can learn from the measurements?
That depends entirely on what the measurements are and how well they are done, which is why I asked the question the first place.
Do you know of any measurements which correlate with sound quality or our enjoyment of music?
Yes

Re: Measurements of the Linn Utopik power supply

Snip Measuring his products does not help but rather evaluating it by hearing. It all depends on what is being measured. doesn’t it? Just curious how do you know measurements don’t help? Edit: I see dozens of LP 12s for sale online here in the US every month. Does that mean it’s not a good product?

The senseless modifications of Linn gear, made by a guy who has no idea what he’s doing to the music, have been mentioned on this forum before.

Hello Rutger, Thanks for posting this. Just so I understand, is there isomeone in Germany making a linear power supply for the ADSM? If so, can you post a link for the source? I couldn’t find it. Thanks..

The linear X-max of the Seas is 28mm and the BMS is at 24mm.

I believe the actual one way Xmax is half of the numbers you give. Of course, the conclusion does not change for the mid range.

Re: Akurate DSM modifications

Thank You all for your replies.

My Google search did not pick up any German results, so it was very helpful to get the links to Aktives- hoeren. I found some of the threads there quite interesting and informative.

Akurate DSM modifications

Have any forum members heard about ADSM modifications done by a Dr. Volk in Germany? I can’t find any information on the web and am interested to know what these modifications are and what effect they have on the performance.

Thanks in advance.

Re: LP12, Router, Nas and much more

Also keep in mind that the Majik is 33 rpm only.

I’d advise you to do the sums. Add up the cost of your preferred upgrades and compare that to the price of a new LP12., less the value of your existing kit.

Re: LP12, Rooter, Nas and much more

Noooo!! At this time all new LP12s, even Majik level, should come with factory installed Karousel. There is no need to load up a Majik just to get a free karousel unless you want a second one. If your dealer offers you a Cirkus LP12 that means it is old stock. Ask for a massive discount - at least e...
