| Replacing LP12 arm with Well Tempered Simplex Arm Call Jonnie at Audio Origami. He builds his PU7 tonearm to Linn spec and you can order as many upgrades as you want.

| Replacement Linn LP12 mat The Linn felt mat sucks. I also have tried many of the available mats made for the LP12. While it is true that most offer no sonic advantage other than sparing one from the annoying static issue plus the unsightlyness, the Plattamat 2 from Analog... | |
