Has anyone tried one of these yet ?
£1200 seems expensive but these things normally are

We have to be a member of a gun club to own one here in NZ . No doubt different in USA. You can get a nice Smith and Wesson snubnose for $628 there.

Is that a reissue or first press?

Was interested in this myself. The talk about porosity in the Linn platter casting being a cause of performance loss raised my cynicism though. Who knows though, it could be the case. Keen to hear for myself however as other Tangerine products have worked for me.

Probably makes more sense for the outer platter to make a difference rather than say a K Rad over the A, must admit I was pleasantly shocked by that one.
Doubt TA would have released it unless they were entirely happy,
The Stiletto, Scorpion and Eclipse was a huge upgrade and superb build quality.
I’ll probably pull the trigger on this regardless, my outer platter along with the hinges are the only original parts on this 1998 LP12.
I’d just be more comfortable if I read some positive reports first.

So not talking about one of these then.
Mr Onion has posted positively on it on another (primarily Linn) forum. He liked it so much that he bought one.

Well, I’ve ordered one
I’ve also ordered a black Evenstar, at least with the black it will match the TT rather than the arm
My old platter is best described as having been round the block, well the spindle anyway and does look a bit ropey. It was on my radar to replace
