Perhaps it is that those who prefer the Linn prioritize different aspects in reproduced music than do those who prefer a different table. The LP12 is known more for it’s ability at conveying the temporal elements in music (forward momentum, timing, etc. PRaT), rather than its purely sonic (frequency extension---bass in particular, imaging, etc.) characteristics.

18K for a Linn Radical or say a used Basis debut.  Hmmmmm, tough decision.

Finally, we have a disclosure that one of the naysayers has never heard the table, but that doesn’t stop him from putting his two cents in...er,is that the definition of a troll!

Pity that the others who have never heard the table in a proper setting fail to acknowledge the same thing. Like i said before, plenty of misinformation attached to this product.

The OP didn’t ask what the darned thing sounds like, or if the sound is competitive. He asked if anyone still bought them, and why Linn dealers are going extinct, but in true Audiogon fashion most posters answer the question that they imagine in their minds, not the one that was actually asked.
