Re: Entity interconnects for Naim

Personally I love the RCA-DIN Naim hiline for this application. I would suggest you try one of those. I thought it was worth it because it sounds so good in my opinion. I'm currently using RCA-RCA hiline with Entity and Boazu. I used to have a very nice NAC52 though :) Make sure to tighten the WBT c...

Re: The LP12 just got better (again)

Another update I forgot to put above. The new motor is still not a complete fix for the problem of the motor bottom pushing on the Trampolin2/Urika foot. I think I mentioned earlier that Linn had machined 1mm of the metal away on the bottom plate, as has been shown in several photos on the web. At ...

Re: How we define "good sound"

I’m sorry, but I really don’t get this idea of “musical understanding”. In fact, I think it’s a nonsense. There’s absolutely no way on this earth that we can “understand” a musicians intent, particularly when they’ve been dead for 200 years! To truly understand their intent, we have to be able to c...

Re: Karousel

Now I've tried the 2.6+5 setting again, coming from 3.4+4. I also tried the 4.0-3 setting which was my first stop. I must have messed up the setting for 2.6+5 the first time around, I see from my notes that they have different reference for 2.6 (I write down the setting relative to a reference mark ...

Re: Karousel

Exciting report Thomas! I will definitely try the 2.6+5 setting again! It was my first test just after i loosened my very tight original installation which had been running in for months. So maybe that's just not a fair comparison. Excited to hear that Lejonklou installed a karousel too :)

Re: Karousel

Yes I experienced such an improvement with 4.0-3 so I just needed to take a breath :) Today I tried 4.0-4 which sounded little worse to me. Then I went for 3.6 and it sounded interesting. Went on to 3.4 and it sounded interesting. Then I tried 3.4+4 wich is "pretty much equivalent to 3.5 Nm" as Nico...

Re: Karousel

Did you try 3.5Nm as Linn recommends? If so, how did that compare to the other settings you tried? No I did not since ThomasOK said he didn't like that with Keel. I will try some more to find optimal-optimal notch, incredible improvement last night! One advantage to work with your own system is tha...

First of all thank you Thomas for suppling us with hard earned torque values! Tonight I started trying myself. I installed the Karousel late august. I just tightened it on feeling but I was holding the clean Keel in my hands when installing with a wrench so I noticed today I had got really tight. It...

Re: Ekos SE tonearm Cable Options

Personally I would just go for Klimax LP12 an Lejonklou Entity and the grey T-Kable as recommended here. The lot is built around each other, very special and balanced. Get the perfect set-up of the LP12 and best possible shelf for it. Then you can get your favourite hi-end cable from Entity to the a...

Nice to see you here :) Actually I've not heard LP12 with Armageddon, rather cool to have a naimed LP12 too of course. I have not heard Karousel in flesh either but it seems like a good idea and I am aiming for one myself. Klimax Radikal has stunning looks in black I think, just like LP12 with ARO a...

I have been with Naim-amps and speakers for many years. My source now is Linn KRDS1 LP12-aro-geddon-kore-adikt into LK Gaio. I used to run a nice 82-hicap-250 on Neat speakers.

Re: Klångedang T1

I can't say really but I think Klångedang T1 is more musical than almost every Linn loudspeaker and sounds very powerful and organic but still clear/pure somehow in that midst of warmth. They may sound a bit mushy compared to passive Akudoriks, but they'll probably have a more holistic sound with so...
