What would you chose? VPI MKIII vs. Linn LP-12

Hi All,

Looking for some advice here. Which front end would you chose...VPI MKIII/Sumiko MMT/Grado Sonata or Linn LP12/Linn Ittok/Linn Karma? Either of these turntable combinations would be running through a MFA Magus. Thanks for you help.

To all Linn LP-12 owners
I decided to try adjusting the ant-skating less then the factory settings. Example my Arkiv Linn Cartridge is set at 1.75 grams tracking force. And now my anti-skating is set at 1.6 instead of 1.75 that Linn has recommended.
Put on a record that you're familiar with and try it.
I'm sure you'll be amazed after doing this!

Well I gave it a shot and took your advice. And yes it's even better at (1). I tried it less but (1) was the best!
Thanks and Happy New Year....
