LP 12 Origin Live DC motor upgrade


I'm going to upgrade my LP 12. I currently have the Valhalla power supply, but I'm considering a Lingo or the Origin Live DC motor upgrade. Has anyone ever compared the two? I'll also have my Trioka rebuilt. Should Linn or someone else do it? Thanks for the help.

I can only tell you what I've read from others, because I've not listened to either of these myself. You may have read the same things. I've read that the Lingo is controversial for not sounding that much better, and throwing alot of hash out on the powerlines. I've read that the Naim Armageddon unit for the LP12 does better than the Lingo and does not pollute the AC lines. I've also read that the Origin Live DC motor kit is better than all of them. I cannot verify any of this info, so it must be considered hear-say, but I have read this stuff in a couple of places. My personal opinion is that DC motors, if done right, sound better than the AC synchronous ones. Especially if you use battery power.
