The Linn store is no longer in Chicago, it turned into a place called Avant Garde and then went out of business.
I do know one of the original employees from the Linn store if you want to email him, let me know, he is still in Chicago.

Phil, i went to the auction that the bank held once they had assumed Avant Garde Audio. I knew that they had Linn products, but did not know that they were located where the old Linn store was. I did think that it was kind of "weird" that Linn would set up a store where there was already a dealer or two selling their products though.

Now that Linn is gone out of Chicago, i guess that left room for Naim to move in : ) Sean

If you're willing to consider other turntables, you might consider a Rega P25 or P9. I haven't had any experience with either, but Rega does share some things in common with Linn. A Rega is easy to setup, and I've heard of many LP12 owners who've converted, and never looked back. Rega also appears to be sticking with analog. Of course, there are people who will tell you that Rega is junk...but isn't that the truth of any brand?

I'm also in the Chicago area and would love to be able to contact this fellow you mentioned! My e-mail is posted somewhere here under my username.
