I don't doubt the sound can be improved....but my point is many use the classic Not as their primary system...and their primary system has more than likely taken over a room and caused some stress with the signifgant other. The classic, to appeal as a bedroom unit, secondary room/unit...needs to be ...

so i took delivery of 2 C4200s yesterday, installed activ cards for 212...and Holy Crap!! Sooo much better than 100w chakras...The improvement in midrange and highs far greater than my expectations..vocals, start and stop of notes (think thats attack and decay??)

Thanks Frederik, i actually asked Linn a week ago, and got my reply this am...their stance is that internal is better, simply due to shorter signal path. bad news is i was supposed to get all my new gear today...ups screwed it up and its still in the UK, even though it was supposed to be delivered t...

internal jumpers or ICs?

referring to, in this case, chakra multi channel amps, and activ cards. the instructions show 2 ways to connect the audio signal from one channe to the next....using the good ole interconnect (audio out/audio in..think we all know this one) and internal jumper cables. which method produces better tu...

This causes concern for me as well...my akiva is just under a year old, and so far so good...although it will pick up a bunch of dust sometimes when playing a whole album side, but i didnt think that was a bad thing, actually thought it was a result of how well it is tracking as my former cart, dyna...

The silver box is not im more concerned with how it sounds... but ideally it makes sense to have a black one...plus then the bride wont notice it?? haha :wink: so...

ThomasOK

thanks for the useful info...i wasnt aware that the 200w uses better circuits, thus a better amp...always just thought it was "twice as powerful as a 100" i am now even more anxious to hear them..

Guys,
Thanks for the feedback.. looks like a slam dunk...and as 9 designs said, after selling L1, should only be 6-800usd. (not many more upgrades available at that pricepoint).

Im interested in the "2 Linto Theory" :? any others with experiences here

Lingo1 v. Lingo2

with the exception of Lingo1, (and now Keel, SE, trampolin) im max'd out on my lp12 with ekos2, Akiva, Linto. I havent had a chance to even hear lingo2...seems a value oriented upgrade as lingo 1 is getting 1000usd on second hand market. Worth doing or save the 500 bucks or so?
