Will the RB-300 fit the Linn Axis?


I have a good line on a Rega RB-300 Arm.I need to replace the Linn Basik on my Axis. I talked to a Linn dealer and he was not sure if the 300 would fit without some modifications. Anyone know for sure?

unless you have a functional problem with the arm, i would consider a cartridge change over an arm change on the axis. the japanese basik arm(made for linn) is quite good, and a change to something in the 4 to 5 hundred range may just be a sideways move....a really nice(and underrated) table/arm combo as it sits....the basik arm was a favorite with the ar crowd in the 80's too.
I've heard both good and bad on the Basik.
The RB300 sounds like too much manipulation.
How about the Jelco SA-250ST? It looks like a drop in replacement.
Any of the Audioquest arms will drop right in as well (same geometry as the Linn arms). I believe the AQ arms are arguably at least as good as the RB-300 and can be had for around the same money.
Thanks guys-I'll look into the Audioquests also.
I'm still curious if the Jelco is a worthy replacement.
