| Thinking about buying an Lp12, Lingo table. If you have access to someone who knows how to properly set up an LP12 then I would go for it. An LP12 that is properly set up will not go out of tune- the DIY'ers have mucked this fact up over the years.As time goes on you can upgrade the deck in... | |
| Avid Diva II SP or keep my Linn Get a Tiger Paw Vulkan shelf- designed for the LP12 and the best one out there at an affordable price. LP12's really do well on a shelf imo.ATB,Mark | |
| Linn Krystal cartridge Yes, Dynavectors do well on the LP12. As far as the Krystal- very well received in the UK and EU. Click on the Linn Forum to get a taste of what other's think- very positive. Unfortunately, the LP12 is a bit of a bastard child here in the States b... | |
| Last stylus preservative...anyone still use it? I have used the Lyra SPT for a few years now- excellent product imo! | |
| Whest Audio MC REF V MK4. My new toy. I've had the Titan Pro for about a year now. Original audition was with the 30RDT ( not SE ) vs the Aurorasound Vida- the Whest won by a smidge due to better micro dynamics and rhythm/ musical flow . Very neutral phono stages that just get on with... | |
| What's been playing on your turntable and what turntable is it ? Elbow-Little Fictions / LP12, Aro, Linn Kandid | |
| Aurorasound Vida LCR Phono Looking at your system, I think the Vida is just what you are after,,,smooth, rich sound. It makes perfect sense in your system. Do check the classifieds- these come up regularly at a significant discount. Good luck!ATB,Mark | |
| Aurorasound Vida LCR Phono Herve- I did purchase the Vida and ran it for about 6 months before moving it on. It was paired with a top spec LP12/Aro/DV XVs-1. Overall a very nice phono stage but in the end was bit too "vanilla" for my taste. A Whest Titan Pro has replaced it... | |
| 2017 may be the year for a new cartridge for my LP12 If Kandid is a stretch, the Krystal is available from Linn and will slot right into your current deck nicely. I personally favor the Dynavector's and the XX2 is hard to beat at that price point!ATB,Mark | |
| ROI. Where is money better spent? Better source..then preamp, imho. | |
| Anything as " fast" as SPECTRAL gear? Naim | |
| Upgraditis At $300, the Lounge is a steal..I purchased one for my son ( LP12/Naim Nait2, Linn Kans ) and we were very happy with it. Ended up buying another one as a gift for my nephew ( Rega RP3, Rega Brio,Wharfdale bookshelf ) - he loves it as well. This i... | |
| Upgraditis Try a Lounge Audio phono stage, Might give you what you are missing for relatively small $$ after you sell the Cambridge..ATB,Mark | |
| If this sounds like YOUR Turntable story, please share your final chapter fjn04- Talk with Chris Harban ( Woodsong Audio) about the LP12 when you inquire about the Reed arm... I have 2 of his plinths and he may pique your interest further regarding the LP12.ATB,Mark |
