Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade
@lewm @daveyf       Is it noise or is it really there? Not talking about noise from the turntable but from the mechanics of ‘cutting’ a record. Do you find it interesting to hear things between the tracks? l had never noticed there was ‘...

@daveyf An old friend of mine, now sadly upstairs and now looking down on us kind of worshipped his Hi-Fi. He never stuck with the same brands and I was always conveniently right behind him when he was upgrading and l bought two turntables. l r...

@lewm Damped suspension The logic bounce l referred to is excess downforce applied to the spindle while playing a record. The sub-chassis will violently bounce up and down and the cartridge will not leave the groove. Also no change in the pitch...

@noromance Well explained definition of tweaking and tinkering. Your example, ‘l have a well-fettled LP12’ made me smile….. l expect those with one have had an equally well-fettled wallet over the years if the TT has been incrementally upgrade... 
«40% Of Audiophiles Are Dying And No One Is Doing Anything About It!»
@mahgister ’my system cost peanuts’ My system cost almonds and cashews. l believe in your philosophy and it’s the way to go…… l have in my 50 years with this hobby mainly bought second hand gear. In the early years I was lucky to have been rig...

@lewm AR XA… l am acquainted with that deck…. And still on some peoples top ten turntables of all time   The damping you mentioned for the DM101 was only a fix for if the springs had stretched. Normally caused if the deck was transported and t...

@lewm The Logic turntables never really broke into the US marketplace so that’s probably why you never came across the range. The DM101 was well regarded for its natural deeper bass extension and neutral sound primarily because of its substanti... 
What do the statistics say about the age of Audiophiles and the replacement rate?
@carlso63 Logic behind the comparison   I totally agree with your A v B formula in part 2 of your reply. I will leave the part 1 cars part carefully parked.   Sorry for the confusion as l was only intending to inject a little humour. l see yo...

Did anyone ever compare the 80s Linn LP12 with a Logic DM101 back in the day? Five years ago l restored a 1980s Logic DM100 MK2 electronic and made no modifications at all. The turntable just plays records with no fussing or need for ‘fettling’ T...

What do the statistics say about the age of Audiophiles and the replacement rate?
@carlso63 Trains, boats and Planes…..And CARS. The last one interests me. Funny you should compare Hi-Fi equipment with classic cars… l have yet to hear or indeed see a Hi-Fi with wheels  
Who's winning?
@mapman whatever floats your boat… I agree with you…..Water is the cheapest option!   @wturkey who wins? The salesman definitely…. He knows how long is a long bit of string…. And how to exploit someone to get to the end (big maybe)  
Which speaker among Dali, Dynaudio and Acoustic Energy should I choose?
I can say to the debate that the Acoustic Energy Reference range of speakers excel in the bass response.  l am only using the reference 1s in a second system and their smallest speaker. The rear port can be tuned using the supplied baffles limitin... 
3k budget for Turntable and Phono Noob- do I need external power supplies?
@audiocanada l bet you are feeling a bit bamboozled with all the advice by now. My advice would be something l don’t believe has been mentioned. Go to some high street dealers and see what trade ins are up for grabs. You will get some quality c...

@newton_john In retrospect of the last 48 hours……and after legal advice and visiting my shrink… ’l couldn’t possibly comment!’
