In Reply to: I don't think an LP12 has enough profit in it for them... posted by kuma on April 28, 2007 at 22:43:28:
I talked to a Linn rep about this some years ago. He said that Ivor Tiefenbrun had told the company's staff that Linn would be the last turntable manufacturer on earth. Linn's recent announcement of the new "Keel" subchassis for the LP-12 shows that they're committed to the product. The Linn rep also said that tooling and machinery for the LP-12 were amortized long ago, and it now costs Linn little more than the price of the raw materials to run off a batch of LP-12s.
