Verdier and Amazon


Has anyone compared these two or listened to either? I'm thinking about getting one of them; currently using the ARC Ref phono stage, Magnepan speakers, and have the Linn LP 12 fully updated.

There is a dealer in my area, so I wouldn't be buying it used. It looks and sound quite good, to my ears and eyes.

Is the Linn not doing something that you feel it should?
When you say fully updated do you mean with the Lingo?

You should also consider the Teres. See www.teresaudio.com
Similar design, and a sound to match the Verdier at a fraction of the cost.

Happy spinning,

Hi,
I listened to both of them. The Amazon is a nice table, but it don't reach the Verdier's quality.
Here in Europe the Verdier is very well known and respected among anaolg enthusiasts.
The Linn is by far no match for both of them.

The Best 3 turntables I ever listened to was a Platine Verdier with SME Arm ( the old one with a SPU Gold Ortofon Cartridge, ) a Well Tempered Super with the full mods from Marigo and a Basis Debut V vacuum with a Graham 2.0.

I think the Verdier is a real classic and the owner owns a unit which will satisfy him for years to come.

It is made from a Genius.

I own the Basis above, but there are some excellent records players out there.

The Verdier is absolutely in this group.
Own the PLatine for some years now, together with the Wilson Benesch arm and a Grasshopper 3 groovin'.
This table is to understand with time, it has no character whatsoever, and to me it's short of magic.

As monsieur Verdier has said; you don't BUY my table, you get married with one.

I live happily ever after.

LINN LP 12? don't bother to compare, it's like riding a honda 350 four, and been overtaking by a Yamaha R-1...

Keep spinning the vinyl
