I just traded in my Rega RP40 with Groovetracer reference subplatter (I kept the Dynavector 20X2l moving coil cart) for the following re-built LP12: Afromosia plinth (circa 1983/84), Ittok LVII, completely re-built Valhalla power supply, new motor, new Cirkus upgrade, new Majik sub-chasis, and Trampoline 1. I got it home on Monday, and all I can say is "Wow"! It really puts a smile on my face. And it looks gorgeous. I'm fortunate to have a reliable Linn dealer with a skilled turntable expert who can refurbish and assemble Linn turntables. I was going to get the Kore but changed my mind when I learned that it would have required drilling a hole in the arm board to accommodate the Ittok. The Majik sub-chasis works well and I can always upgrade later if need be.
