Hi tpetsch,
Probably you misunderstood.
My remarks were not about the the P10, about the video, but about the thread after. Never heard the P10 playing as the LP12, Although Lovergroves cannot be complete in my opinion it was an interesting one. I’ m kinda disturbed about the discussion, seems to be biased towards a battle between LP12 and P10. I think snatex is asking for more than a choice between those two. There so much more diamonds not to be heard and seen at the forum in this thread and I love to give TT like P10 give more than a benefit of the LP12 lovers’ doubt. And the same for upgraded vintage TT’s, like Thorens or Lenco.
In a fruitful and useful discussion at this forum about TT’s some open mindedness might be helpful.

I just installed Dr. Fuss Netzteil for controlling my Lenco 76/S. Platter turning now stable at 33.34. Another 0.05% to go. Wonderful tune and sound. I leave the LP12 vs P10 dispute for what it is, loving my Lenco.

Turntables are just lovely to watch. Unlike digital we can see what is going on….. :-) Enjoy!

I know that the LP12 is king around these parts and I am a big fan as well, but I am very curious if anyone has tested the LP12 against a VPI, Thorens, Technics, SME, Rega, Kuzma, Feickert or any other potential competitors. Please share any experiences and listening comparisons. Thanks.

I think, after reading about the TJN modificated Lenco’s by Jean Nantais they might be challenging the LP12. See reviews of Hearken Audio at Montreal Show (Event item on this forum). What do you think @Thomas O’Keefe?

I have no idea yet but I do intend to find out. I heard one at the Toronto show but the system was all made of equipment I had never heard before. I have talked with Jean and his ideas about design seem sensible to me but the proof of the pudding is in the eating. I plan to take my Klimax LP12 up to Hearken Audio at some point and do a shootout against a TJN Ultimate, something which Matt thought would be fun. But this is probably several months off yet.

Tom, it would be be a great musical challenge. Please keep us posted about the tasting this pudding dish.

Talked recently to Matt Thomas from Hearken. Just back from Montreal. He told me lot of visitors preferred his by TJN well built idler wheel turntables over belt driven Linn turntables. Thomas O Keef were you there too?

No, I didn't get a chance to attend this show.
