You and your LP12

[paskinn]

I like the fact that, after nearly 40 years in production, it is STILL the reference by which all other decks are judged; and that there is still not a deck that is universally accepted to outperform it (even though I have moved on)

You have got to be joking...right?

Course he was.

I had a fluted walnut LP12 bought in '87. Recently sold on PFM.

Cheers,

This is probably right, you see every other deck now can be classed as "X" times better or "2X" times better, therefore a reference and as long as all the Linnies are out and about universal acceptance of it's superiors will never happen. Good looking desks though

What do you like about your LP12?

I like the way my LP12 sounds (good enough not to think about upgrading/changing for anything else) and looks (it's a best-looking TT for me).

 

[nemick]

I like the way mine sounds, I like the way it looks and I like that it's paid for. There may be something out there that's better, but I'm happy.

I like the fact the LP12 is the reference turntable , that cheaper alternatives can better. A reference doesnt mean its any good

mmmm...better consult your dictionary zener. If you have one.

 

[Gaius]

Well a reference is a good place to start.

The LP12 doesn't have to be the best because that is so subjective, it does remain however a first class record player and that's all; it plays music.

Very well.
