Re: Linn Rip off

They can only do it because of the amount of suckers who have been taken in for 30+ years. Not easy to admit you have been a brain washed idiot for that length of time.

Re: Grado SR225e - 'Enhanced'

I bought a pair of Grado SR225es last year after auditioning them against several competitors at below and around the same price. To my ears they came out on top by some margin. An excellent very detailed sound playing Tidal Hi-Fi through my Chord Mojo. Do not find comfort to be a problem. For in ho...

Re: Linn Lies

As more and more truths come out about Ivor, and the Company, on the WWW there is likely to be an effect. To all intents and purposes Linn do not cater for audiophiles today, except for the completely brainwashed who first bought into the myth decades ago and remain blind to the error of their ways....

Re: Linn Lies

Corrections. Hamish's original bearing was a ball bearing. Castle designed the hardened point and thrust plate bearing "for him" to an order. Castle then decided to apply for a patent on the bearing cutting Hamish out. Hamish and Ivor met when he came to work for his dad in uni holidays, ...

Re: Linn Lies

I started this thread because Ivor’s son, a chip off the old block but less smart, is attempting to distort history under the cover of the mists of time. It seems his intention, via the priesthood, was to transfer what is on the Linn website to Wikipedia . The clandestine origin of Linn products is ...

Re: Linn Lies

When I discovered that the Glasgow mafia were charging £50 for a drive belt, and their reasons for justifying the price, it brought back memories of how I had upset these rip off merchants with home truths over 35 years ago. As I still have the magazines, I could not resist bringing this to light on...

Re: from rubber band to direct drive

In the early days, Linn didn't have a clue about setting the thing up right to maximise any sonic potential it had and it was Naim's Julian Vereker who got the set-up procedure together properly in 1977. He trained Jimmy Hughes and Jimmy trained me, with subsequent discussion with JV later on when ...
