In Reply to: RE: I was looking at used LP12s... posted by mg16 on December 12, 2022 at 06:22:11
Just for the looks of that thing. My former friend couldn't stand that I have it and he doesn't (its the primal Polish trait ) so he bought one too with upgraded granite base and SME 245 arm, no less. Wooly, boring sound of that thing kind of cured me from desire to set up mine and buy an arm for it so it still sits on the display, few years now. No regrets though. As an object it's really worth the price.
Follow Ups:
A friend has a V with a Graham Phantom III arm. Altho it has a few tweaks, I still prefer my Sondek with a Linn EKOS SE. My friend of course, prefer the sound of his deck. This stuff is pretty subjective, innit?
P.S. I agree with your comment regarding the P9. The current P6 is much livelier and plays tunes better, IMHO. Almost like Rega coming close to a vintage Linn minus the colours. And current Linn is... oy not sure what they doing now is for me.
At the Munich Hifi this year, Linn had a '73 Serial # 0006 Sondek on display.
...I got from you and viridian, I'm still thinking a Linn might be in my future.
I look at used LP12s all the time.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.

I give away gear also. Quite coincidentally at the moment I am waiting for my grand nephew to arrive in about an hour to pick up a Parasound JC 3, Jr. phonostage I am giving to him. I thought about selling it, but that didn't fit with my philosophy of keeping my life simple. I also like to encourage young audiophiles.
I dream of an America where a chicken can cross the road without having it's motives questioned.
...keep crossing the road, she's gonna end up on social media.
She'll go viral and I don't mean bird flu.
