Yawn...............there is nothing new here. Gee, I guess if the Linn community says something it must be true. I have a full blown LP12 BTW, but I prefer the graham tone arm and armboard to the Linn arm, heresy I know, I'm almost not allowed in the Linn shop( actually just a joke , they like the Graham better as well) The source 1st argument has been around a long time and is still controversial. I've seen Ivor at several Linn demos here in the past, he is a good salesman :-) SOTA digital sources have become cheaper and more widespread as have amps. It seems to make sense to allocate more money to speakers and room treatment to wring that last bit of improvement. Which returns us to the OT: Why spend 2,000.00 on a mod when that expenditure will likely be more effective elsewhere? -- tomjtx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tomjtx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7449 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38106 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
