Geez - they say thatcopycats are the greatest form of flattery - its quite easy to see where Mr. Linn got some of his inspiration. Reading the Linn Website his wording is almost copy/paste of ours, be a little more original- really! - and good luck with it. Peter B Noerbaek PBN Audio / Montana Loudspeakers pbnaudio dot com |
I'd say this ad raises just as many questions: http://cgi.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cl.pl?ddspkrfull&1247218563 |
Peter, that is exactly what I thought when I saw the speaker. (BTW your stereophile ads freak me out a little bit, I turn the page and boom there you are staring at me in that hat ;-)) My guess is that they haven't made enough of a blip on the radar for the real Linn to notice, and/or there might already be something in the works legally. I can't imagine they would let this guy operate with that name uncontested. As for the Dayton amp you would think for the $1800 premium they are charging they would at least change the rca jacks and binding posts (yeah OK 8^0). Makes you wonder what kind of crossover is in his speakers. Lovely, just lovely. Chris Kline Tel Wire |
One other thing that is a bit fishy... If you go to this URL: http://www.linnaudionh.com/services.html You will see that it says: "The suggested retail price is: $ 59,500 per pair" Then, if you go to this URL: http://www.linnaudionh.com/services1.html it says: The suggested retail price is only $ 29,500 per pair Hmm... Which is the real "suggested retail price"? That's a pretty big difference : ) |
