In Reply to: Linn system, 30 years old - what would you upgrade first? posted by RHerring on January 19, 2017 at 19:40:33:
I am going to disagree with everyone so far here.
Until you have decided exactly what you don't like about the sound that you have now then don't change a thing. Otherwise you will be spending money in a random fashion with a hope that it will be "better". It could just as easily be worse if you are unsure what you are aiming for.
Only when you have decided on your target e.g. better bass/mid/treble/soundstaging etc.etc. should you start worrying about any changes.
In fact at the moment you are saying that it still sounds pretty good to you. That seems to be a better position than many folk here appear to have achieved after spending $$$. So why upset the apple cart?
I would only check that the stylus on your elderly cartridge is not worn as this will damage your discs. Maybe have your Linn serviced too as they do require periodic maintenance. Only a service BTW, not upgrades unless they can be demonstrated to you as actual improvements.
