Linn back in vinyl big time with the LP12 Majik

How does everyone feel about Linn being back into vinyl with the LP12 Majik. You get a brand new (cirkus'ed) table with a Linn Majik power supply and Project 9cc arm and Linn Adikt cartridge. All this for a little more than 3k! This is new for Linn in a long time they have not done an affordable LP12 package. This going to send used prices down but very interesting for someone who does not own a Cirkus'ed table

What would you call Linn's midfi junk? Just curious?

Well for the ones of us who do like the LP12 this is huge. I sold mine to buy a VPI Scout because of the upgrade cost of the Cirkus. (which I did not have) I did not care for the VPI Scout so bought another LP12 but would have just bought new if this was available. I mean $1200 for a old Ittok valhalla LP12 old bearing or a little more than 3k for a new table likely better power supply and already cirkus'ed including the $500 cartridge. Almost the same cost so new would be much better in my mind. I think most would rather a new bearing than a 30 year old one! Now Linn is comparable in price to a Scout Master. Linn includes the cartridge $500 and interconnects. The Scout Master is $2500 plus cartridge and interconnects. Glad to see Linn back at the entry level high end. Linn will never get the crowd that is looking for a sexy turntable but I prefer the suspended liveliness and energy.
