I prefer the G clips, especially the better timing, although the pickup sounds worn out.

Re: Linn Kan 1 Setup

Really nice Charlie1! Like ThomasOK i much prefer the Lingo/Ekos2/Adikt LP12 deck.

Have you checked the speed of the turntable? It sounds slow to me.

There is no renew option for the Katalyst board. Apparently the Katalyst board will not be able to be used in older Renew cases either.
Thank you Thomas!

Is there any specific reason to why?

Linn has sent out notice that they will be sending invites to a new product launch April 7th on their Facebook page. While there is no mention of what they will be launching, nor have I heard anything yet of what is coming, the image at the top of the invite certainly makes it look like a digital p...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

There are more parameters then just tunefulness involved in loudspeakers. How loud do you listen to music for instance. A loudspeaker can be really tuneful at low to moderate volume and struggle at loud volume. How important is it to hear all the bass notes at the same strength? Do you have to take ...

Birch plywood, Stringhyllor and LEGO. That is a really nice combination. With great music its an even better combination.

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

708P are quite massive and their look is more "pro" than "furniture hifi". Personally I love how they look. I live alone so I have no need to negotiate with anyone. I am also a huge fan of horns and real compression drivers. Looks just as brutal as they sound. How are you able to position the louds...

* Fine tune the distance to the back wall down to the last mm. This might seem excessive, but often yields the biggest improvements as the music "snaps into place". Is there any point in evaluating this step separately for each speaker, or should they always have exactly the same distance? I always...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

It's the end result that matters and Exakt has come on a long way in the past 7+ years. I've heard some real hit and miss Exakt systems during that time. I think they can be really good now but, for me, it's usually via digitally sourced material. K350As just playing YouTube were great when I heard...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

Do they really lack low frequency information? Majik 109 plays deeper. 3677 is almost like two elements of a three way speaker; they seem to be designed to be used exclusively with the sub. They do however have a lot of slam in the deep midrange, which is really nice! This truly surprises me given ...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

Thank you guys! Very interesting :) My 3677's will probably stay for a while even if they are huge and ugly and lacking low frequencies. But it's comforting to know that I have some reasonable options to replace my 3677 if something should happen to them. Do they really lack low frequency informati...

Hello BSilviuLu, You are obviously not happy with your LP12. Unfortunately I do not think you can salvage this situation. There will always be a nagging feeling that something is wrong and/or suboptimal hurting your musical enjoyment. Return the turntable if you can or sell it. Buy som records inste...
