I value a human like communication above all else when listening. That is why I love listening to my wife playing the piano in the living room. :-)
Very true
I should have stated that I was assuming everything is properly setup

Re: Record player for daughter

My daughter will hear her Linn Axis for the first time on Saturday. It was quite cheap and unfortunately doesn't spin at 45rpm. In addition, the anti-scatting appears to be defective, as it immediately sprints to zero with the slightest touch. It is difficult to leave the value at 1.5. Three exampl...

More on source first and other priorities

I'm sure by now we've all learned the value a source first approach to system building within a limited budget. And many thanks to the various members who helped me on that journey. A journey that started quite a long time ago soon after I joined. Time has flown. Yet what's more important to me than...

Re: Linn 50th Anniversary

Thanks Tom. Could there be a way of fixing a new arm using the existing screw holes used by this new arm collar? Perhaps Linn would offer their 'special' 250 customers a special deal on a new arm. Better that than having to sell the Ekos SE and Keel in order to get a new super duper arm. From the p...

Re: Linn 50th Anniversary

Great post - thanks Thomas!!!

I've added it to the LP12 Product History page.

Is there a unique serial number for these or do they just follow the current numbering?

I guess it's safe to assume Linn has a new arm in the pipeline then.

No new woofers here, just another pair of 109s.

The 109 mod is ref the position of the foam at the back of the port

Re: Charlie1's System

Yep, I don't need both but I'll only spend the money on something else so probably just as well to keep it.

I do use the N50 in the office again since moving the Lingo deck back to the house where it normally lives.

Re: Forum issues are discussed here

Hadn't heard of the 'necroposting' term until today. I wasn't aware that people saw this as a problem and it never bothered me.

Occassionally people join for the purpose of responding to an old topic, but yeah, they could link to it but I don't see an issue in just responding to it.

Re: Pair of Linn KLOUT power amplifiers

Bet that system sounded good!

Krescendo have never obtained their parts from Linn either.

I don't think Darran can service Klouts anymore, cos Linn stopped suppling the kits.

Fair price. GLWTS.

Got the Lingo 2 serviced and all sounding quite a bit better - thanks tpetsch for picking up on that. I prefer this '02-spec deck on both setups now and since I listen to much more music in the office I may keep it in here... https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/9jtsmn0cl3wzi4vigwg41/20230921_140444.mp4?r...
