l just can’t see the argument in your cut-and-paste, tried to see it from your perspective…it’s maybe lost in translation here.
l’m not arguing here, you are. Please educate me with this wisdom.
l for one like a nice debate.
Linn LP12 turntable
I was in my favorite audio store yesterday talking turntables… Rega P10, MoFi MasterDeck etc, when he stated he had a Linn LP12 he was selling for a customer at $2,400 & the customer had $14K (with upgrades) into it. Intriguing, but knew nothing about Linn. After my research, people seem to love it or hate it. But it is installed in many fine audiogon systems.
I would like your thoughts and recommendations.
I have asked the following questions of the dealer:
1. Date of production
2. Upgrades that have been added
3. Power supply / tone arm
4. Condition
5. Recently serviced
I have not yet seen it, but it is there now. What other questions should I ask?
My current analog system:
Pro-ject 1xpression carbon classic with Hana ML
Rega Aria
PS Audio BHK pre
Simaudio Moon 330A amp
KEF R11’s
Advise would be greatly appreciated.

@mylogic First you state this: “Why that supposition then that things have changed? An LP12 is always an LP12.”
then you state this: “Remember l am on record here stating that l actually agreed with the Linn doctrine when first published with adverts in the hi-fi press. ‘Not all turntables sound the same!’” Now you state that you don’t even own a LP12, but you have no problem denigrating the product. This kind of logic…escapes me. |
@cleeds I think you nailed it with regards to our friend with “logic”. Lol. |
@daveyf Thank you for your feedback. If it’s bad, it’s not always bad but an ‘opportunity’ to review what has been said, digest and see what could have offended. l do recall saying something really bad about the Ittok’s tank-turret like design that may have cut a bit close to the bone.
If l have offended anyone l apologise. I’m not afraid to say that. |
