To understand this right you say that the orginal 1973 sondek lp12 will sound exactly the same as the current full specs sondek lp12 Se ? The klimax chasing is the only thing that will not change. Upgrades will be factory upgrades and will only acure when a significaly improvment have been made. The linn klimax solos amplifires are unchanged since 1999. The linn klimax twin was upgraded in 2005 with a new amplifire designe the called chakra. But please express why you beleive that ALL audio upgrades are snake oil ? -- harmonic ------------------------------------------------------------------------ harmonic's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6879 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38815 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
