| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum @mijostyn I still have not heard why you did not involve your selling dealer more. This is where the push back against the distributor needs to come from. Is your dealer actually a MSL rep? | |
| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum One more thing... It is this, I believe that the mark-up on Japanese cartridges when sold in the US and in a number of other countries is---outrageous! Shipping expense cannot explain any of the added costs. Simply pure profiteering. IMHO... | |
| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum @mijostyn Presumably you bought the MSL from an authorized dealer? If so, this is where I think the ’pressure’ has to come from...and not from you dealing with MoFi ( the distributor). When I had a problem with my new Lyra, my dealer was all ove... | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition @vinylvalet I guess you were not one of the 250 buyers. Although, I suspect you would not have that opinion if you could have been....;0) | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition 60k for an airpax motor turntable… if it were milled from titanium it still won’t be worth that with a markup. The LP12 is a fine deck and deserves its place in audio history. The best LP12’s I have heard are by The Funk Firm and Vinyl Passio... | |
| Tonearm with a slotted headshell to replace Linn Ittok LV II Imo, there really is a very limited option for you. The tonearm I use, a special edition well tempered black offers the kind of headshell with slots that you are after, but it is anything but easy to set up. Otherwise, best I can think of would b... | |
| Tonearm with a slotted headshell to replace Linn Ittok LV II What turntable are you using?..remembering that the LP12 is a very limiting factor as to the weight of a tonearm… if another platform, then you have a much wider number of options. | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition Apparently, all 250 LP12 50th Anniv tables are now sold! | |
| Is there a ceiling limit on what you are willing to pay for an audio component? I asked a similar question on a thread I started in the speaker section, except it was if there was a price where a manufacturer could over price his audio wares. Seems like the general consensus was…no. Certainly by the supposed success of the r... | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition So that this is not taken in the wrong light, I am a fan of the LP12 table, and I own one. However, I fail to understand the value of new hinges and a new shaped button or logo? I never use my lid for anything but a dust cover to be used only whe... | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition While the Thorens is a good table, I do think the Linn is probably better. However, is it 10-30 times better, that i seriously doubt! Interesting thing is that there are apparently 120 of the 250 tables released already accounted for! That would... | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition Not junk, but also, at least for the LP12 50th Anniversary, hard to assign that price to value. | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition @ghdprentice Your post makes sense, except it might assume that there is no direct competition for the Linn 50th at its asking price. Problem is, at least IME, there is competition at and slightly above this price point that will put the Linn to... | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition @lalitk +1 Where Linn get the idea that their Anniversary 50th LP12 equates to a $60K price tag is beyond me? However, like always, they probably figure that there are folk with money to burn who will pony up for this model. This kind o... | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition If Linn utilize the new design aesthetic across the whole LP12 line, I think this is actually a very nice update. Hopefully ,the price of a new plinth with rounded corners will not be ridiculous; but knowing Linn's marketing....:0( |
