I'll look forward to hearing what you think of it.
Having mine fitted shortly and quite excited.
..the most expensive bearing I have brought in my life....
What does that have to do with the price of fish?Yeah, you could buy seven good quality BMW car bearings for the price of one Karousel! Makes sense to audiophiles and no one else on earth.
Couple of weeks!! What are they doing to it?Having mine fitted shortly and quite excited.Only downside I will be without my LP12 for a couple of weeks but do have a Technics 1210 to fall back on so not all bad.
Loved my LP12 before so really looking forward to getting it back and going threw the racks !

I’m assuming you don’t literally mean that you hadn’t heard these instruments before? I mean just how how bad could your LP12 be if it wasn’t playing the music?About 30 years ago I went active into isobariks with a top spec (at the time) LP12. Since then I have upgraded a number of times and the music has improved, better rhythm, better timing, more impact and dynamics.
But in 30 years I can’t say it’s got any clearer. I could hear everything that was there , or so I thought.
Just listening to She on the Sundays ‘static and silence’ and there are instruments playing now that I’ve never heard before.
Karousel really is a game changer
I doubt the BMW bearings would sound great on an LP12 though!Yeah, you could buy seven good quality BMW car bearings for the price of one Karousel! Makes sense to audiophiles and no one else on earth.
So how much is a BMW seven bearing crankshaft and bearings?Yeah, you could buy seven good quality BMW car bearings for the price of one Karousel! Makes sense to audiophiles and no one else on earth.

Maybe so, but like all things hifi, I judge its value by how it sounds. It's worth every dollar I paid for mine.Considering the materials and manufacturing costs, the Karousel looks fairly expensive.

It is, I think the same can be said for the whole LP12... but it’s where I’ve come back to, and I’m not regretting it at all.I'm not disagreeing. If I had an LP12 I might well buy one too. I bought the Cirkus literally weeks after it came out. Doesn't mean it's not expensive for what it is in purely material terms.
You said you did on post #33. Seven bearings you said as used in their 6 cylinder engines.I don't know.
