I was offered the Linn cd12 at at great prices the dealer was wanting rid of it and I should have done what it took to buy that one but I past on it back in the day.
Yes, the original price was rather steep. I heard one at a London show around 20 years ago, and whilst it didn’t fully convince me, I was certainly impressed by vastness of the size and scale of the image it literally threw out into the room.
Strawberry Fields Forever has never sounded the same since.
Having said all of that, nothing (so far) can match streaming for sheer convenience. Particularly if, like me, you’re not one to play albums from start to finish.
I can’t think of than a dozen like that.
So just imagine having over 100GB of music at your fingertips.
Sheer bliss.
