| What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP I don't think anyone is stating"death of the lp12".Thats a bit over exaggerated to say the least..The point to the original poster is before going out and dropping lots of money he could simply buy something current which IMO will out perform what... | |
| Best SACD: Modwright OPPO vs Esoteric X03 series? Yes we are,but it might be helpful to some who are thinking the same pathway | |
| What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP Well..I already own an epxpensive digital player that beats any of the alternatives suggested above but that means nothing in this discussion..I would rather spend half the money and get a better sounding table IMO than taking a thirty old table a... | |
| Best SACD: Modwright OPPO vs Esoteric X03 series? IMO, I would say yes of course..but I don't own the Oppo and never would so I have no experience on build quality and how it would hold up over the test of time..I do own the X03SE.It sounds great with any cables,a slew of different amps I own bot... | |
| What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP Your comment or comparison makes no sense.This guy has an old LP12 which in this current market will fetch tops to the wrong guy $1200 on a great day with that arm and that's being very very generous.We are not talking multi 1000s of dollars here ... | |
| Best SACD: Modwright OPPO vs Esoteric X03 series? Again as stated, I looked and listened to the MW oppo.Made no sense to me to take a $1300 inferior player ,do the mod which if not mistaken was $25-2600 at that time with a long list of "better option mods you can add to make It sound even better"... | |
| Best SACD: Modwright OPPO vs Esoteric X03 series? I might add before you drop a ton of money on cables..The 03se really sounds great with stock power cord and cheap ICs.It might be more wise to buy entry level stuff of a good brand you like and spend the rest on music....or a turntable if your se... | |
| What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP Boy ,I have no idea what the heck you are talking about.Anyway,all Im saying as well as a few others to original poster is before spending a bunch of money on upgrading maybe seek another option that a lot of us think is a better and cheaper option. | |
| What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP A good suggestion but some like myself who are in small towns and have nothing within 100s and 100s of miles merely don't have that luxury.We post questions seeking advise simply because its our only option.If we all could do what is suggested I'm... | |
| What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP A used Linn Ittok LVII will set you back $600. A used Hercules power supply cost $200 or brand new at $300. What used VPI table costing $1,000 are you suggesting? I did all the upgrading that is suggested on a lp12 and im quite confident you cant ... | |
| What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP Add a Linn Itok LVII tonearm and a Hercules power supply and sit back and enyoy your table. While you at it, give your table a good tune-up; new oil, springs, gromets,etc.For the price of an arm, power supply,springs etc etc one can get a nice use... | |
| What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP Well, since the OPs 3 preferred options are all Linn-based I'm going to stick with that question and keep it relevant. ;^) Suggesting a better option is completely relevant don't ya think? | |
| Best SACD: Modwright OPPO vs Esoteric X03 series? Im running Lessloss signature power cords..Nordost ICs with the Esoteric because I like the speed of their cables with digital. | |
| What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP I agree with Stringreen..I owned a lp12 and never could get it to sound good...and I know "good" is different to all.Sold it and im glad I did.I bought a scout at half the price.Setup was easy and no constant tinkering.Buy a different table! | |
| Best SACD: Modwright OPPO vs Esoteric X03 series? Esoteric X03 SE without a doubt..When additioning players I heard several including the Oppo and the modified version.Didnt even clome close to what the X03se does but it really comes down to what you want to hear.For me when I read anyone stating... |
