Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade


128x128mofimadness

I would not be surprised if Linn realized after the 50th Anniversary Addition sold out very quickly there was a market for that level of cost / performance. Honestly there are probably a lot of us old guys out here that have a lot of money and are willing to spend a little on their systems just for fun. 

The new Bedrok plinth for the LP12 is being discussed extensively on the web.

Probably what is brought up the most, is the very high price. The price puts the new plinth and table into the realm of some very fine turntable competition. Something that should be checked out by anyone considering the combo, IMO.

 

Also, IME, the entire rest of the system needs to be optimized first, along with the room and power supply from the wall before such an investment should be considered for the table. Otherwise, i doubt that the full benefit of this plinth will be heard.

 

Looks like Baltic Birch plywood, a great stiff, low resonance form of wood (most popular in it's 19mm/13-ply form). Art Dudley made the base for his TD-124 out of the stuff. It’s also great for equipment racks and/or shelves.
