Further information: This is an unexpected sale due to upgrade. I love this turntable and it plays extremely well. I actually thought I would never sell it but it will otherwise go to waste with a new tt on the way. I begin this journey in December 2018 by purchasing an LP12 in excellent condition. This is an early model but the plinth is immaculate. This is what attracted me to it. It came with an as new lid which is still in great condition with on the slightest of dust marks if you look really closely. As the purchase was primarily for the actual plinth, I looked at mod options and upgrading the tone arm. I then found the details of Edmund in Hong Kong and his Mober brand. Edmund was and still is a real gentleman to deal with. I decided to go with Mober DC Motor LPSU, upgraded Bearing, Upgraded Arm Board (Linn) and the upgraded Sub platter with bearing. At the same time, I changed the springs and grommets. My journey was documented it this forum: As you can see, I also upgraded the tonearm to the latest Linn Akito 3b. This was purchased from Tivoli at a cost of $2900. This arm remains in excellent condition. All up, my costs were approx $7500 but it was worth every cent. I soon also became pedantic about set up and I purchased a setup table that does do the job and is a hell of a lot easier than my original three chairs method! This cost me $300 plus post from on here. I will post plenty of pics, including the extras for the Linn I will no longer need. To be clear, the following is included: Linn LP12 - original plinth, top plate and baseboard/feet - One of the feet sits flat with the help of some blutak inside as the screw thread was worn (is an easy fix)- works fine as it is flat and hold but full disclosure! - Mober motor, bearing, sub platter and arm board - the lid is aftermarket but excellent fit (it comes off and goes in easy) and great condition - Linn Akito 3b - current model - original Linn felt mat in excellent condition Extras - belt, springs and rubbers as per pics - 2 bottles of Linn bearing oil purchased from Douglas HIFI - Cork mat - I used this the most as the Linn mat sometimes sticks to records and I think sounds better - set up table NOT INCLUDED are the rubber isolation feet and isoacoustic ones in pics (I will use these on something else), kettle cord and my Lyra Delos Cart (being fitted to my new tt). As there is no cart, nor can I demo anyway, I had my first go at a youtube video taken today. As can be seen, the Linn gets to speed quickly and holds it! I hope this link works! Unfortunately this will be pickup only from Albert Park VIC 3206. I will not take the risk of post of something so delicate. Any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. I have a heap of pics so will further upload as I am allowed to do so. Cheers, Rod.
