Thank you. That’s an interesting post.

I have heard a Bedrok in a couple of amazing sounding systems. Unfortunately, I couldn’t tell if that was down to the plinth or the new Klimax Solo 500s.
 

It would be good to hear the Bedrok against the standard Klimax LP12. My dealer said he has heard this and thought the Bedrok was much better. Maybe he’s just got different tastes to you.

Of course he would say that - the sound he likes is "ka-ching".

Linn is a late comer to adopting a Densified Wood Material, but is another 'Testament' to an identification of the Intrinsic Properties and the Value of this property when added to an audio systems Structural Requirements or at Mechanical Interfaces.

Others producing TT's have adopted this material type and for many of the products, I suggest similar proportion of cost for materials used is allocated to create the overall product value. 

Where Linn Stands Out is the Part is an add on offering, which is steep at the cost.

An equivalent plinth made of the same material could be put together by anyone for a small fraction of the price that Linn is charging. I predict that this will spawn numerous third party efforts which will be just as good as the Flintstones plinth.
