Cleaning a old tonearm
NO lost cause at all. I would try using lighter fluid and cleaning Q type tips for electronics sold at Radio shack. Start lower and gently work your way up. Lighter fluid evaporates fast so I would think that it would do a nice job cleaning up the... 
Linn LP-12 still competitive with the very best?
Mapman..well I am glad that to your ears it's sounds the best. But when placed side by side next to the Goldmund there was no contest. I will admit I wished Goldmund would have used the JVC motor from inception but it still is to my ears a better ... 
Well-Tempered Golf Ball?
David nice hearing from you. I agree with you that the WTT arms are somewhat tweaky, but over a short time things start to snap into place and the table becomes very stable with a long period of time. I hope and I'm sure that the new table from WT...

Mapman: are you still using a Linn as your prime analog source,and if yes why?

Compared to a Grand Prix Monaco and Dr.Fickert it still sounded great.And please tell us all what is the retail price of the above system?

Uktel: I thank you for opening my eyes even more. I just left the Billy Vee site and was shocked that I did not even see a Rega TT nor a mention of the new WTA table. I hope all who have chastised me, will understand that I do not hate the Linn ta...

had the older B&K 200mono's and thought they were excellent. 
Well-Tempered Golf Ball?
yes in the past I had the original WTT classic with square motor, also the WTT record player along with a Goldmund studio table and 3b arm along with others. Such as a VPIHW19,Musichall MF-5,7 tables. I can talk with some experience and say I love...

By not allowing dealers to carry better tables to be compared to side by side is that so hard to understand? Linns been using the same marketing ploy using the follow the tune bs. Do you really believe if you had the choice of side by side compari...

Chashas1 are you talking to me you most be talking to me because their is no one else in the room so you most be talking to me. 
Rega P3-24 isolation ??..... any thoughts ??
TAS claims using squash balls under a solid platform can work wonders for any TT. I don't know how many pounds per ball? But I would guess, the same as the tennis ball tweak one ball for every 10 pounds. I hope this info helps.

You are going to see many in less then a year after purchase, being placed on the used market. And not because of poor performance, but the golf ball jokes will leave to many with a bad taste with thoughts that they have made a bad purchase. 
Linn LP-12 still competitive with the very best?
Eee3 Your arrogance stands a head above all other linn owner's. I have just finished reading the posting from uktel, about Linn's unfair marketing advantage in the UK, by not allowing their table to be compared with other's.That should say it all,... 
Set up problem?
the jolida uses tubes,might just be a tube problem and that's all.

Martykl I would agree with you on some points. But I will say and in your own words when a "high school project" trashes an $8,000 dollar table. Then we must reevaluate most high end tables and arms, and then consider why a pioneering product such...
