I remember hearing that Linn interconnect is 120 cm because it sounds best at that length?

Thx Vic!

Sounds like $150 + shipping then. :)

I should ad that the Troika is fully functional.

I have a Troika that (according to Fredrik) needs to be rebuilt. I have now realized that this will never happen as long as I have it, so if anyone is interested, I'll be happy to sell it. Don't know what a reasonable price would be though?

Original box included.

Not to pour water on your parade, but would'nt a thicker mat change the vertical tracking angle of the tonearm/cartridge combo? Of course it does! Not to the extent that it absolutely needs adjustment though, I changed mat the other week, and the thinner one was considerably better although it chan...

I'm 35 on Tuesday, do you think that means I should go this year?

A Majik DS is of course better, but as a more affordable option, I believe that a Kikkin would be a very nice upgrade all by itself.

Probably someone at Linn who miss-spelled the last order. :lol:

Thank you very much Springwood!

:D

I've heard active Kabers, Keltiks and passive Akurates (driven by Klimax amps). The best sound I've heard of all these are my aktiv Isobariks [...] Thank you Chris! You just saved me a lot of hasstle selling my Briks! From now on, I will blame every flaw in my system (and there are flaws, believe m...

Well what do you know a pair of Briks are around the corner..They are mid 80s so passive only ..what do you think guys? [...] Your advice and opinion would be very much appreciated I say "no". If you get yourself a pair of Isobariks you should get the pair that you really want: Active and of the la...

I have lifted out the posts about Cinema receivers. This "Absolute bargains" thread should be reserved to those rare products that represent exceptional value given their asking price. Not just general recommendations, good or not. Please don't hesitate to start new threads if you have information ...

All this is false economy the sneaky will be much better, and has a power amp included. Can you not find a second hand sneaky? Should not be too difficult: http://www.lejonklou.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=567 :) Let me add that I think anthony is right here, before the DS no one managed to produce a ...

I would not pay more than €600 for a late unit in great shape.

Welcome :)

If you have any need for two Dynamics you might consider getting two Center speakers 112(?) instead of a pair od 109:s.

MC:s are so expensive to run that I probably would not do it. If I did use it I would not get a new one before I had Radikal, Ekos and Keel. Another thing is that the performance of the latest version of Slipsik is so good that I have stopped considering MC at all. How does you LP12 look and what ph...

The idea would be for people to continue posting on the appropriate threads such as "The best NAS for a DS?" (...) Just a few suggestions on how to put this together. Don't know why it took so long, but now I've started a thread on NAS / HDD. What other topics do you gyus think we need to get this ...

This thread have been missing for a while now. When we get to a point where we can agree on some general recommendations we can edit it and make it a sticky. Apart from sound quality I think that we should try to cover; reliability, noise level, price and ease of use. Music lover? Linnofil? I know y...

Please do! You are very welcome to start a thread in the "Me and my system" section.

Hi Lizzy, and Welcome to the forum! :) Now, here's the issue, most of my hard earned cash will go on the source, so will my old Classik cut it with a set-up like Majic/Akurtate DS with Kikkin pre-amp, or is there no point whatsoever, and I'll have to buy a suitable Amp? I don't see any point in keep...

As you might know, my current setup is LP12 (Keel/Ekos2/Adikt) - Slipsik Kikkin - 4xLK100 - active Isobarik. About a year ago (or is it two? God, I'm getting old!) I had a pair of Ninkas driven active by a 5125. It's impossible to compare since everything else in the system has changed since then, b...

Myself, I try to balance between tune dem and "nice sound" I don't understand - what's wrong in saying this? ...so long as any comparisons are made on the forum using Tune Method and this forms the centre of the post.

Myself, I try to balance between tune dem and "nice sound". So I am not sure I would prefer the same setup as you do. Welcome here Bill! Just a short note: We all have our different preferences and ideas about the perfect setup. However on this forum "better" always means "more musical", and the me...

You can also add the cost of phono stage, where a second hand Linto will cost a lot more than a new Kinki2.

Fredrik, I don't mean to ruin your calculations, but that LP12 really deserves a Slipsik ;)
