Fair enough Leo. Not sure a point of reference is needed. For example, if several speakers are all musically enjoyable and one comes along that leaves you flat then I don't see why the source is at fault. This is of course assuming they are all functioning well and time has been taken to set them up...

HAS ANYONE TRIED THE LATEST VERSION AKURATE KONTROL? (i believe it looks just like an adsm/3) Just checking but I'm sure you know Linn ceased production of all pre-amps many years ago. Just cos you wrote 'LATEST' that's all, as if it were a current product. I think David Neel of this forum had an A...

There are so many factors involved in getting enjoyment from a music replay set up that generalisation can sometimes be more misleading than helpful. Apart from the equipment and the set up, there is the room, the context (home? on the move? ), the listener's habits, and their expectations. 'Source...

I agree charlie1. There’s a level below which no component can be allowed to fall, be that a turntable, an amplifier, a speaker, a cable or even individual components, such as resistors, capacitors etc, making up each major component. I think source first emerged when the LP12 demonstrated that nea...

I value a human like communication above all else when listening. That is why I love listening to my wife playing the piano in the living room. :-)

Very true
I should have stated that I was assuming everything is properly setup

Sent you PM.

My daughter will hear her Linn Axis for the first time on Saturday. It was quite cheap and unfortunately doesn't spin at 45rpm. In addition, the anti-scatting appears to be defective, as it immediately sprints to zero with the slightest touch. It is difficult to leave the value at 1.5. Three exampl...

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...

Still available

RRP is £1,250

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...

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.

Thanks Matteo!

Thanks all.

I'm gonna leave it there and just enjoy it now. Tx again.

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

Finally found some 109s that I like and can now understand why other folks rate them. Fourth time lucky! Very nice match with Lejonklou electronics too. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/70lywob7zmdqul0cj18l9/20231004_134527.mp4?rlkey=ddifingvlqn6jsjxmvlbrl7ye&dl=0 Are you still positioning them, and ...

I don’t recognise it

I assume that's a joke Kalle05 :)

It’s not a joke, i would like to know and play the same track at my ”system” and compare

Oh sorry. Its 'More Than This' by Roxy Music from their Avalon LP

Good to hear.

What is it replacng?

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.

Exciting!

I'm sure it will sound fab.

Does it still outperform the Giella Pi?

Tx gents

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.
