Thank you for your comments. I did not see them as l was posting back to thecarpathian about not wanting any misunderstanding on his comment on my conversation with newton_john.
My experiences with the old LP12 were garnered from early day auditions and demonstrations at hi-fi fares and shops in the 1980s. Also l have friends with Linn models of various ages, so l have a fair idea of the pros and cons of the turntable.
Thats how l judge any opinions l may feel like sharing. I may well buy one if the price is right as l am open minded to any piece of hi-if equipment if it excels.
l also take on board the suggestion the ‘mylogic’ handle may be confrontational but there was no ulterior motive why l adopted it. I also own a Logic DM101 MKII electronic which l have restored. Nothing else upgraded except the arm and various cartridges.
l rest my case!
