A friend was a long term Linn fan and had got up to a Radikal but still with an Aro holding his Ortofon Cadenza Bronze. Next thing I knew he’s sold it all and was extolling his new Well Tempered Versalex, admittedly with a DV DRT XV1t. The Versalex has stayed for several years now despite trying the Amadeus 254 GT.
New Turntable Direction
It's been a long time since I sought the opinions of the community. I have been a happy Linnie for 20+ years stopping after upgrades with the Ekos, Cirkus, Lingo, and suspension. I still have my Shelter 90X. A recent upgrade inquiry resulted in approximately 6K investment in my table and this just doesn't seem to make sense considering it's age. I have considered investing the 6K in a new table and staring all over. I have initially looked at Oracle, VPI, and Basis in part because they have been around for as long as I have been doing this. For what it is worth my phono stage is still a Rhea. So what do you think new table or another Linn upgrade and if new table what brand? As always I appreciate your feedback.
