I do not know the difference between the Arkiv and Akiva B...I guess the Akiva is the best in Linn cartriges. * The original Arkiv replaced the (gorgeous looking) Troika. They both had a cantilever of aluminium. * Arkiv B replaced Arkiv. B stands for boron, which the new cantilever was made of. * A...

Thank you Linnofil and welcome here! This is exactly the kind of things I had in mind when starting the topic. The Denver MCA-54 is really incredible value for money. I can recommend it to anyone in need of a simple system as it is really enjoyable to listen to. This machine was also marketed under ...

Is the improvement so big? Yes, it's big but I expect that with those prices. Linn themselves claim the Keel does 60% and the Ekos SE 40% of the improvements I heard when listening to all 3 upgrades. That leaves 0% to the New Trampolin, but Linn claim this part to be a worthwhile upgrade to a relat...

It's in the rules and they may seem harsh, but there are so many other hifi forums that allow just about any opinion, so my intention was to do the opposite: Create a forum where everyone shares the same frame of reference. If you do use the Tune Method, you can always participate in the discussions...

Re: What's in a Naim?
Vidar and carle, welcome to the forum! I can't comment on the Naim player that you are discussing, because I haven't yet listened to it, but I have to remind you of the forum rules that are posted at the top of each forum. The Tune Method is mandatory here when judging performance. You can't replace...
Hello G man and welcome to the forum! Sorry if I'm being blunt here but I will tell you what I think. I admit to having tried lots of different shelves and isolation stuff in the past. In essence, all that worked was a stable and light support and none of the spikes/cones/dough/metal feet/wooden fee...

Ikemi: Yes. 5103: Yes. Unless you have my power cables, which might be better. 5125 is a power amplifier that doesn't have a Slimline power supply, so the 8-way JST cable doesn't fit. But it has a cable assembly running from the switch mode power supply towards the main board and I recommend it bein...

Hello 9designs and welcome to the forum! For those who don't know what you are talking about: I used to make a special internal power cable for Linn units that have the Slimline Brilliant power supply, and also special cables for the Linn aktiv stereo and mono cards. These had to be discontinued whe...

Absolute Bargains!
The purpose of this topic is to share tips about really inexpensive equipment that sounds way beyond expectations and can really play a tune. Often these products are labelled differently on different markets and tend to disappear rather quickly. One of the best car speakers I have ever heard was fo...

Jajo is right, it takes a combination of being very relaxed and and the same time focused (not letting your mind drifting away). Your gut feeling might very well be telling you the same thing as a Tune dem, but you are correct in the assumption that the Tune dem is usually faster. When I used to wor...

Hi Glenn and welcome to the forum! I have never listened to the AT 440 ML, so can't comment on that specifically. But when it comes to the internet buzzes, I currently can't think of one such product that I have been impressed by. Same thing with magazines; if everyone praises it, the chances are go...

Hi Broccoli and welcome to the forum! I would say that 95% of the work I do on installations is directly related to the system. From mains supply to speaker placement and everything in between. Most of the time, it sounds great after this is done. Often the room has been described as "difficult", bu...

Well, thanks for coming here and for your suggestion! A guiding star when designing this forum was to keep things simple. Everything that didn't feel absolutely necessary had to go. Music and movies was one of those things that was discussed several times. The conclusion was that music could fit und...

Keel, Ekos SE and Trampolin II
It would be nice if someone could share their opinion of each of these three upgrades for the Linn LP12. I have so far only heard them all together, demonstrated against the former top LP12 (with Cirkus, Ekos II and Trampolin). The new LP12 was of course better, mainly with a more controlled and mel...
