| Sending my Linn LP 12 Transcription Globally Hey Mark, the arm and the armboard MUST be removed from the 'table or the armboard will get torn off in transit. You can use clear plastic wrap doubled over and attached with a tight fitting rubber band around the oil well. The inner platter must ... | |
| What are the High, Medium output MC top contenders BTW, the Dynavector XX HO was discontinued LONG ago, in fact, it is 2 models ago. I seem to recall about 7 years ago. I am clarifying that fact so someone may confuse it with the current model, an XX2 MkII. | |

| What makes a high $$$ cartridge high $$$? Tiger, what happened after the setup was corrected, did they not like it so much? I'm not sure what you mean. | |
| LP 12 with Fidelity Resurch Arm Fr64s Geoffrey, you may want to check into the gain on the stageline, it may not be enough for that low of output of a cartridge. You may also need to find out the loading that cartridge likes. | |
| A newby to Turntables -- Linn - Thorens Even an LP12 out of tune will sound a lot better than the thorens (most LP12's are out of tune) | |
| A newby to Turntables -- Linn - Thorens I've found the grommets wear on an LP12 and stay in tune if they are replaced every 4-5 years. The ones that go out after a year have 10+ year old grommets. It is more important than the springs. Many decks out there have 20+ year old grommets and... | |
