linn sondek tt

I used to own a Linn. I hated the bouncy platter and sub assembly and it was cheaply made. It was expensive so that made it all better.

It was very long ago Davey, probably one of the early ones. There wasn't much to it. Now I have a Technics SP-10MKIII, Teac TN-400, JVC QL-F6, Micro Seiki SX-1500 FVG, Empire 598, Dual CS 714Q and Technics SL-1200 and maybe a couple of other ones. Anyway most are pretty good.

I'm sure many will disagree but the Linn is way overpriced. The parts are decent but it shouldn't cost but 700.00 to 800.00 dollars. I know they don't make that many anymore and it's a boutique item and should be taken into account. And all audiophile products are overpriced. But they've made their original engineering costs back in spades.
Face it Ivor had to get the original reviewer drunk to get him to like it.

daveyf you should be replying to cleeds not me. And cleeds, I don’t pay retail and get lots of stuff free especially cables. I paid 100.00 for the Linn Sondek many years ago.
