LP12 Setup: Dead & Lifeless: Where's the air?

Picked up an LP12 from a fellow 'Goner this weekend and installed the Dynavector and proceeded to be underwhelmed :)

It sounds really dark and closed w/o any airiness on top.
Fiddled with the basics, and this basic dark, closed character did not change much at all.

Being a LP12 newbie I could certainly have my local dealer help with this (they are very good), but thought if there was something simple to fiddle with, I could affect a DIY style setup change.

Thoughts?

Breeno,

Email me if you would like to have a setup manual. It's a zip file that is about 1/2 meg and opens in MS Word. Also, cut and paste this link in your browser. There is a lot of useful informations contained there. I would suggest printing it out and saving it for reference.

A faulty power supply would also contribute to what you describe. I can also send you a photo of what to look for.
Take the table to a Linn dealer if you still have doubts. Good luck.
