From start to finish the project will have taken around 10 month or so to complete with my initial investigations starting well before so I will say 18 months to get to this point. But it is worth the effort as the sound I heard from the LP12 was clearly musically pleasing and hit all the notes I was hoping to hear. Here in the southern US Linn dealers are a rare breed and I have to travel about 200 miles to there shop. The LP12 has been made since the early 70s and their owners seemed very loyal for some reason so I decided to investigate.
Capacitance of sme tonearm cable upgrade#
At least with Linn the new and improved is modular and and older part can be swapped out with for the newer as the upgrade bug bites. The other obvious choices just seemed like a crap shoot - with designs changing each year just to have a new and improved something.
SP turntable and SME 309 tonearm, feeding an Audio Research REF Phono 2. Also, many brands seem to be just slapping something together just to have a TT to offer in their lineup some of which they do not even make themselves. The impedance and capacitance lurking in the short run of cable joining the. I had listened to many of the common major brands, often with terrible cartridges that distorted high frequencies and was just turned off. Jelco is now unable to accept new orders from April 2nd, 2020, due to the availability of transportation and delays in production due to the spread of the serious infectious disease COVID-19. Wanted to create something that will be with me foreverĪt some point in this initial design phase I stopped from thinking of the turntable as a piece of equipment, and more as a musical instrument - especially after becoming aquatinted with the LP12. The tonearm serves as the second cartridge. Very understated, but just looking at it you know it is special
