What turntables do you use? Pictures would be nice as well :-)

Stylus brush, right. My RS has a bolt that slides along the slot is all. Earlier or later, not sure.

I like how the light plays with the acrylic. Have you considered using some sort of backlight with it?

A Linn LP12 is quite rightly an icon of turntable design. I often think of a Porsche 911, whose original basic form has been guarded by its designers through all the decades and at the same time transformed into the future in a modern way.

The history of the Linn LP12 has strong parallels.
It is not easy to find a suitable phono amplifier that also has these ideals.
Under the Linn, the AS Phonolab PRO from www.audiospecials.de takes up the classic form. And at the same time scores with its sophisticated technology.



BTW.
It can also serve two LP12s if future expansion requirements should arise.

That wall shelf makes a huge difference as I remember from my LP12 10 years ago. I haven't had a turntable sitting on anything else since. I can't understand why every turntable manufacturer doesn't recommend it when possible.

What SUT do you use with your DL103?

What SUT do you use with your DL103?

Presently using something I found on-line about five years ago, a custom built unit using a pair of UTC A-12 transformers. The builder added "two independent gain selector switches and a switch for ground lift , with the two separate gain switches the left and right channels are completely independent for less cross talk."

A Transrotor Super Seven. With SME Arm 3009 II Improved.





The pictures were sent to me by community member Björn from Denmark. The Transrotor is from 1993, an heirloom from his father, a watchmaker with a great sense for good design and precision. What was still missing was a phono stage with top quality and matching design. The AS Phonolab from www.audiospecials.de is the perfect match. The TRANSROTOR with the AS Phonolab, both from Germany, will always be an eye-catcher.
