Linn Upgrades
Looking forward to your review of the keel! Did you order the new trampolin as well? 
Linn Ninkas now Aktiv but a couple questions.
Stuart,Do not mess up with non Linn cables: I experienced several interconnects (from Wireworld to Stealth) and I can assure you they do not work. You might get a first impression of more details, a more bases, but at the end you get less musicali...

Linn's Ninka speaker: Anyone heard it??
Well I came to Linn very lately, coming from Triangle, YBA, Acoustic Energy, Reference 3a Supreme II (list price was more than $10000) .... and to my surprise, after listening to the Ninkas for about 2 or 3 weeks, I dumbed my mutli thousand dollar... 
Biamping with Linn LK85 and LK140 - any problem?
Always put your best amplifier on the treble ... and the LK140 is a killer amplifier with the best music/price value. I use 2 LK140 in passive with K400 cable, with the AV5103 and IKEMI. Personally I do prefer 2 LK140's to one KLOUT. 
Best CD Player under 4000 to replace Linn Genki
The Linn IKEMI of course! 
Silver question...
You have to try the PGS Gold cable from Stealth. These are superb in details, delicacy and are not bright at all. They are not silver but gold. Let me know if you are interesed. An alternative is the M7 from stealth, pure silver but so sweet. 
The right amp for Martin Logan Ascents
YBA amplifiers work great with Martin Logans (minimum YBA 2 HC). You may to try Simaudio W5 or W10 as well. 
Bel Canto EVO 200.2
At BelCanto, they told me that the EVO200.2 is not suited to drive speakers with low impedance. Any experiences? 
Long interconnects or speaker cables?
I thought as everyone here that short speaker cable and long interconnects are better then the opposite. I think I will retract my previous statement: I went from 1.5 meter long Eclipse III to 3.0 meter long Eclipse III. Without changing anything ...

Class Action Suit against UPS?
"Electronics not insured, insured only for loss." The UPS outlet I use to ship the stuff I sell add this message on the shipping paper . Is this normal? 
Coping in an Age of Uncertainty
What I decided to do? Get the most out of my still growing CD collection. First, hundreds of CDs are out of catalog and most likely will not be reissued, whatever the new format. Second, till now 99.99% of new music (being Jazz, Classical, Rock,..... 
Long interconnects or speaker cables?
Short speaker cables help retain the micro information or the ambiance of the recording. Use long good quality interconnects with short top quality speaker cables. I have 1m50 Wireworld Eclipse III speaker cables and a run of 5 meter-long Wireworl... 
Fanfare FT-1A Reference FM Tuner/Monitor
I just bought the Fanfare FT-1A and I agree with all the above postings. Unbalanced output comes in Hi and Low output. I prefer the Low output. This is a truly amazing piece of art which is highly musical. I sometimes tend to prefer its sound over...
