| Turntable for life LP12, 17 years young and going strong | |
| Linn sondek vs sme Interesting thread. I would not substitute an opinion of a dealer who doesn't sell Linn for an actual audition. Am am I biased? Sure, I have and love my LP12. It's far from a bare bones entry level table but it's not top deck either. And it does t... | |
| New sound system, $5000 max- what a would you do? Which is why I said Oval 12 with the .7's! And the H80 has more than enough grunt to drive the .7's to reasonable levels. I am am tempted to build this as a 2nd system for myself! | |
