I have a LP12/Ittok/Valhalla/Circus that I have stopped upgrading. I am not even tempted by the Keel, etc. The reason is a few years ago I bought a '72 LP12 just to play around with. I stripped it down to nothing, refinished the plinth and built it up with new suspension, belt, arm board, etc. It now has a Rega RB250/Incognito rewire/RB300 stub & counterweight. The '72 combination does not sound as good as the Circus/Valhalla etc. but it is damn close. And, at the end of the day the subtlties are simply not worth 3 times + the cost of the '72.
I am, however, considering an Hercules board for the '72, but I dont want to potentially ruin the sound!!!
