LINN MAJIK LP12 PACKAGE


Hi all. If anyone has the Linn Majik LP12 package I'd like to hear what you think about it. Actual owners or those who has listened to it only please. I'm not interested in theoretical discussions. Thanks very much.

If considering a wall shelf - you owe it to yourself to try Quadraspire's new(ish) Q4evo Bamboo. It sounds great and looks sharp too IMHO.
Can't talk about the Majik, but in my experience, having started off with a Basik power supply and then upgraded to a Lingo 2, the difference was quite considerable. Before the Lingo, I didn't think there really was much of a difference between my olde Rega and the LP12. As for footfalls, my table sits on an old Sound Organisation 3 tier stand which is on a wood floor. Waliking around the room is never a problem. I guess Linn's suggestion of a light and solid stand is the right one.
Bought my Majik after head to head comparison with a McIntosh MT10. Majik hands down better sound and the price diff left me enough room to get Lingo2 & black plinth. Very happy with the sound. Musical and precise. I recently improved my rig by upgrading to Radical which includes power supply and motor change to DC. Really good improvement in low mid and bass crispness and precision. Noticeably better background depth/silence. Next upgrade is toss up between cartridge or arm. But don't conclude that my upgrading is due to dissatisfaction. After hearing the full blown LP12, there are a number of improvements that are available and effective. Footfall is there but it's an annoyance as opposed to a real shortcoming. But good setup is important just like any quality component. 
I think anyone having an issue with footfalls should seriously consider upgrading the bottom plate to a Trampolin 2.
The Tramp 2 is a very nice upgrade by itself...and if you are plagued by footfalls, a no brainer.
