More on source first and other priorities

I'm sure by now we've all learned the value a source first approach to system building within a limited budget. And many thanks to the various members who helped me on that journey. A journey that started quite a long time ago soon after I joined. Time has flown. Yet what's more important to me than...

Re: Linn 50th Anniversary

Thanks Tom. Could there be a way of fixing a new arm using the existing screw holes used by this new arm collar? Perhaps Linn would offer their 'special' 250 customers a special deal on a new arm. Better that than having to sell the Ekos SE and Keel in order to get a new super duper arm. From the p...

Re: Linn 50th Anniversary

Great post - thanks Thomas!!!

I've added it to the LP12 Product History page.

Is there a unique serial number for these or do they just follow the current numbering?

I guess it's safe to assume Linn has a new arm in the pipeline then.

Re: Charlie1's System

No new woofers here, just another pair of 109s.

The 109 mod is ref the position of the foam at the back of the port

Re: Charlie1's System

Yep, I don't need both but I'll only spend the money on something else so probably just as well to keep it.

I do use the N50 in the office again since moving the Lingo deck back to the house where it normally lives.

Re: Forum issues are discussed here

Hadn't heard of the 'necroposting' term until today. I wasn't aware that people saw this as a problem and it never bothered me.

Occassionally people join for the purpose of responding to an old topic, but yeah, they could link to it but I don't see an issue in just responding to it.

Re: Pair of Linn KLOUT power amplifiers

Bet that system sounded good!

Krescendo have never obtained their parts from Linn either.

I don't think Darran can service Klouts anymore, cos Linn stopped suppling the kits.

Fair price. GLWTS.

Got the Lingo 2 serviced and all sounding quite a bit better - thanks tpetsch for picking up on that. I prefer this '02-spec deck on both setups now and since I listen to much more music in the office I may keep it in here... https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/9jtsmn0cl3wzi4vigwg41/20230921_140444.mp4?r...

Re: 33.3 versus 45 rpm OR is this about Barry Manilow?

I'm beginning to think that groove width is part of the problem with 45rpm. I nearly always prefer the 7" if I have both and the more engaging 12" singles seem to be the ones with plenty of music on a side, or only use up a small area. I also have some 33rpm 12 inch singles (typically US copies). Th...
