One of lp12 biggest competitor was the Rega p3 in mid 70's. Some may say Rega 3 was better sound also plug and play. The Linn had to offer upgrades from basic power supply and basic arm. Sky's the limit what you can spend now. This table is not for most people. It needs to be shipped off to be tuned properly, it does not go out of tune with new springs and grommet's installed with tune up. It has ridden on my front seat of 4x4 truck a few times, not the smoothest ride. Never a problem once returned home, sounds just like it did many years ago after returning from tune up. I get tired of this go out of tune crap, it's almost laughable. This table has its own sound it's not going to please everyone, the only one it has to please is me.

as long as they don't have jerry powell as a marketing consultant

can you believe the arrogance of THAT outfit.?...........

if the table is that complex that it needs a high priest to get it right, thats a problem.  Actually, I am not looking for a new table. the 1200G really does a lot right for the money I could always upgrade the arm if I wanted to which I don't.  If I could get a linn for say between 500 and 1000 bucks, it would neat to tinker with it but I probably will not.  the whole thing with the North American distributor being 2 miles away and will not let me listen leaves a bad taste in my mouth.  bad business. IMO.
