That's only because you know nothing

John Michell. You could talk to him about ideas.he sent me a couple of mods over ideas for my old hydraulic ref TT

Savvy here. For convincing me that streamers are not foo and do make a difference. The sound from my system has improved a lot as a result.

Alfi - answered loads of my questions in an honest and knowledgeable way. Sold me some of his in sole spring replacement thingies and i intend to send him some bits and bobs for fettling in the near future.

An all round top fella. Thanks Alfi

Nick Gorham great advice for anything valve or electronics in general.
Frank Cookson master speaker rebuilder who has just done a great job on my Tannoys

+1 for Alfi - got to "know" him as a result of buying a plattamat years ago.
I think that first and foremost he is an enthusiast, who happens to make a few products in a genuine interest in improving the LP12.

With Alfi, I can't help thinking that he would be capable of designing and selling a turntable from scratch that would out-perform anything originally "designed" by Hamish Robertson.

But then maybe his ambitions don't lie in that area? Which would be fair enough.


Edit: put designed in "'s - as quite rightly pointed out by DSJR below.

Hamish basically 'stole' the LP12 concept from Thorens (layout, spring positions, platter diameters give or take a thou or two, motor position etc.) so I'd have no guilt on that score. Amazing how basically decent a TD150 can sound (pitch aside) when mounted in an old Linn plinth, allowing for different arm-board width...
