Linn Axis, Akito

I have a Linn Axis arm Akito.
It deserves the effort, to upgrade with a entree level of 1000$ from Scheu, or Project, etc.
Thank you

You can go backwards...

It would not be a step forward. I own a mint Axis and have been auditioning new TTs in the $1500 range and am keeping the Axis. It has that great Linn house sound. Back in the 1980s, Linn built this affordable TT and it rivaled the LP12.
