Great to hear. As you have no qualms in seeking out and trying new speakers perhaps you should throw a few quid at the JBL 308s. If you don't like them you will get them sold on this forum in minutes!!! I got mine for £235 and I know others on here who got them for sub £200. To put into perspective,...

Hope all had a warm and reflective Christmas period. Preferably with a nice Irish whisky, or whatever your tipple.

This thread has got me thinking, cheers Mr. Pig. As per my signature I have a Basik Plus which came with the deck. I used to run ATF7s on it which to me was an economical and nice fit. That was also when I ran Pre Cirkus bearing/subchassis and Hercules 2 PSU. I now run a Rega Ania on the end of Basi...

I expected the response you gave. Thanks. Im sure you will hold on to your lp12 but on the otherhand it may well be prudent to sell and use the funds to bolster another part of the chain. Or simply save the world :)

Going forward how much time % wise do you think you would give to Kalla and LP12?

And clips? 🤗

Rematch!!!

Can't. Lejonklou products were on loan and handed back. Darn.

Great photos thanks.
Wow Tom's place looks fantastic!!

Even on Christmas Day..... the perfectionist must abide by his calling :)

And so the reveal, on Christmas Day no less!!!!! Section A was Ella Fitzgerald played on my LP12 (See my signature) through Entity 1.1 through Giella into: MERRY = JBL 308s CHRISTMAS = TUNDRA 2.0/MAJIK 109s Section B was Ella & Louis played on my LP12 through ? into Giella into JBL 308s: HAPPY = ENT...

SPOLIER ALERT BEFORE I DO THE REVEAL OF THE BELOW, PLEASE DO NOT LOOK AT THE NEXT POST IF YOU WISH TO LISTEN WITHOUT PREJUDICE. Ok folks, wee Christmas bumper of clips. Each section is a different configuration/comparison. Section A: MERRY https://www.dropbox.com/s/gte72yvbfmb329h/MERRY.mp4?dl=0 CH...

First things first. Have your family banished you to the back room on Christmas day? Did they find your hi-fi related banter/craic not to their amusement?

Secondly - what phono stage do you have - does it accept both MM/MC?

Happy Christmas Leo :)

🤣

Glad to hear!
Can you refine your analysis concentrating on musicality only?
Cheers

I concur with the above. When talking about top tier TTs, I have only ever owned my 1978 LP12. Yes, I have upgraded it over the years. But unless someone was willing to loan me a comparable TT for a long period of time I don't see the point. I am happy. However, I would love to hear your Lenco in my...

Källa 026 is due to arrive, appropriately, on the winter solstice - the festival of rebirth.

Ha, very good. Health to listen!

If you check my signature, you will see I am one of those that you refer to :)

Interesting point and I enjoy your assessment of the RP10 Vs LP12. Indeed I flirted with an RP8/10 on release to replace my modest linn. But having asked folk more knowledgable than myself who's opinion I trust (T'OK and my dealer) I stayed away. However, your own rationale seems to place great weig...

Interesting to hear some different opinions on the sections.

I hope the recordings are ok. Im no expert!

Cheers Monty, will give this a go :)

Kind of you to give your thoughts gents.
I will leave to tonight or tomorrow for the reveal. Or maybe be Santa and deliver on Christmas Eve?

Do go on Tom 😀

Hopefully get time to work on clips tomorrow and you can see from them.

Will be interested to see & hear them. Thanks in advance.

Folks clips are now in the Practical Playground thread. Cheers
