Anyone find the Linn Lingo too fast?


Or maybe the Lingo is too relentless. This doesn't always bother me, but is there a cure? Could it be my power cable(A Valab silver one)?

Do you mean, literally . . . as in the platter spins too fast, making the pitch too high? In this case, no. The speed for the LP12 still needs to be set in the usual manner, by adjusting the motor angle and using a Speedchecker or other suitable strobe . . . this is the same for ALL versions of the LP12, regardless of the power supply.
Kirkus, would this be the 50 or 60 year-old response? Just kidding. Thanks for the response. My only experience with a turntable motor was dropping it on an Ariston RD 11E(a loosening of the screws). This allowed the motor to literally pick up the platter and make it-along with the armboard-a closed system. It was the best sound I ever had(that's why Roksan's motor intrigues me). Unfortunately, it wasn't very stable. I've also adjusted(by ear) the Ariston RD 110's motor, so I guess that I'll give it a go. What I was listening to when I changed power cords on the Lingo was the sound(brighter, more detail, etc.), and I thought that might not be the way to do it with the Lingo.

I think that's about the first time I've been accused of being a Boomer . . . and I'm not too sure how I feel about it :)

But if you feel that your LP12 sounds a bit bright or edgy, then the power cord to the Lingo is near the bottom of my list of things to check.
