I think a useful comparison can be made to Linn ...

They are a company which has been successful for 40 years, and are still going strong.

The vast majority of their customer base never go to the Linn website but those who are "into" the LP12 (and their other products) and like finding out about people's opinions of upgrades - and tweaks - do (go there).

Linn contribute to the discussions. As an example, there was a lot of "noise" when the Keel subchassis was delivered a couple of years ago and some useful & informative comments came from Linn.

They also are happy to have after-market modders contribute. For instance, there is a guy who has started to produce another subchassis. It is considerably less than the price of the Keel so doesn't really "compete" with it; those with lots of money will buy the Keel and those who would like to get a similar benefit but don't have fat wallets (like me! :-)) ), will buy the alternative. There is also a Yankee who makes LP12 plinths - which compete directly with Linn plinths. These are stock standard in terms of dimensions but are made from beautiful and exotic woods ... and in fact, are sometimes more expensive than Linn plinths. (But then Linn doesn't use those particular woods. :-)) )

What is also interesting about the Linn site is that they do not put up any barriers to Linn dealers selling both the genuine Linn products and 3rd party products.

Regards,

Andy
