| Blue Note Tone Poet Series @alexberger Thank you for sharing your videos with us! In regards to the recent releases of the Blue Train, I'm curious if you used the same cartridge for all three pressings? Or did you use a mono cartridge for the mono pressing? Does your ... | |

| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable The comment "It's suspension design is inherently unstable and if it is not on a supremely stable surface it will skip easily. Footfall issues are legion with this turntable. A little bump will cause a skip...." The above statement can be said of... | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable @ghdprentice Thank you so much for your very kind words! Best wishes, Don | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable @mijostyn It would seem, by your own admission, "....I have used them all and the LP 12 is an antique. Its days ended in 1980." .... that you are still stuck back in 1980 and that with all the improvements and developments that have been implemen... | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable @mijostyn you say "No amount of wishful thinking or modification is going to make the LP 12 representative of what a modern intermediate priced turntable can do. The Avid Acutus, SME, Sota and Basis turntables all are definitive improvements over... | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable @edcyn Thank you so much! You are very kind ☺ Best wishes, Don | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable I don't see a....."pathetic sort of wood base stapled together at the corners" here with my LP12. Nor do I see... "The tiny little dink of a motor that I can stall with a Q tip" here either! The one on the left is my current swiss ... | |

| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable @hipsterjefe So very true! And I'm sure your walnut plinth looks absolutely beautiful! I wish there was an easy way to post pictures on this forum (when it comes to computers I'm somewhat challenged, lol... I'd love to see your finished results... | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable OP. Yes, you are correct... audiophiles can be very passionate about this hobby in many ways.... Vinyl vs Digital Single bit vs Multibit vs NOS Red book vs Hi-Res upsampling CD vs Streaming Belt drive vs Rim drive vs Direct drive Spring l... | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable As I had eluded to in my earlier post... I think that we (as vinyl lovers) should all feel extremely blessed that we have such a plethora of tables/arms/cartridges/phono stages available to us at virtually every price point that allows almost a... | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable @lewm Yes, you are absolutely correct. I should remember not to post on forums when I'm overtired 🤣. Thank you for the correction. Best wishes, Don | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable Honestly, I have to laugh at all the naysayers of the Linn LP12 that seem to just keep regurgitating the same old mis-information. The LP12 IS a great table! Why is it perfectly acceptable for other turntable manufacturers to be allowed to make... |
