Unfortunate how LP12 threads seem to degrade. Great discussion prior.  I learned a lot about the iconic Linn LP12! If I can find one at the right price /.condition / options I will join your ranks, or may buy a new Majik. I think I need to own a ...

@newton_john Thanks for the pictures. The piano black looks great!

There is an engraved with Ivor Tiefenbrun signature 25 year anniversary edition SME tonearm, Majik power supply on eBay for just over $4k. I can only imagine the long term depreciation of this 50 year anniversary model.  I am not sure why, but the...

@gordon  I will jump on it… not! 9k plinth… incredible! Once again… not! Their profit margins must be outrageous.   
Warm sounding phono cartridge
+1 Hana ML. Mine is teamed with a Rega Aria. Smooth & Full with no noise even with my 50 year old records. Your issue gives me pause, as had planned to upgrade to Umami.

@newton_john Would love to see before & after. Thanks! @awise1961 Very nice system, turntables & cartridges!! I don’t have the power supply issues, but nice to know I could hide the Lingo! Sounds like I could not go wrong either way. Than...

@panzrwagn Agreed. But I am not a TT collector. I stated earlier the reasons this particular TT was a no go, but a newer LP12 could be… better shape… better arm. @awise1961 A very interesting observation, in that you own both but prefer your LP12...

Ha is right! 8 windows, 5 pairs of unused speakers, an unused sub and a 75”’TV between my mains when playing 2 channels. Still sounds great… a wonder! I do have multiple herbies dots on all my windows. 😏

@daveyf  I also wondered how they got to $14k. Perhaps sales exaggeration, perhaps honest mistake. Will continue to look at the Linn. Thanks

@lewm It is above the shelf were my current turntable sits. Unless I am missing something, other than inconvenience, I am not sure why that is a problem. It is not used and just a hunk of wood when I play vinyl. The center is only on during HT use...

@tomic601 Jon is the Raleigh store manager at Audio Advice… he is a great guy! @lewm The 1200G is a great deck. No final decision yet… am staying pat, for now, but back to leaning P10. Love the look, the simplicity and the reviews. Also, my TT i...

@richardbrand  Thanks for your recommendation. 2 issues… potentially shortcomings on my part… but that is me.  1. I like perfect. I have bought some used audio pieces and even some antiques. The audio pieces were like new… mint & the antiques...

@mylogic  Thanks, I did read & even posted to that thread. My ears tell me things are pretty good. I think I will stay pat for a while. Perhaps I am in my Valhalla. 🤔

OK, false alarm. The Sondek LP12 at my local dealer was too good to be true. Not sure of the DOM, but it is a Valhalla/Ittock model, with a 70% worn Dynavector XX-2A. The upgrades were that the local dealer rebuilt the Valhalla power supply & ...

@elliottbnewcombjr Beautiful tone arm! Now that deck is retro! @lewm Fun fact!
