When I owned a Thorens I spent months looking to upgrade my stereo. I was not wealthy, ran an old sportscar and was fed up with breaking down. I thought I'd buy a Golf but, while I was shopping around discovered the LP12, which begat a basic Naim pre-power and meant I couldn't afford the new Golf. I bought a new 2CV, happy days. Better stereo, better car (certainly better than the Golf). The Citroen was half the price of the Golf so my new (fairly basic) set up cost me about 10K in todays £. Over the years I've changed most of the system and the LP12 plinth and lid are about all that's left, if I were to buy my Linn now it'd be crazy but I still love music. The Klimax may be crazy but it can be achievable if it's what you want.
