Is there a great LP12 set-up person in SoCal?


I live in Arizona and I can't seem to find a good LP12 guy in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Does anyone know of anyone in the LA/San Diego area?

Thanks

You really can't find better in Southern Cal. And his shop is a great place to hang out at.
Brooks is great with turntables and has always supported vinyl, but he has never been a Linn dealer - he was an Oracle dealer when the Delphi and the LP 12 were going head-to-head (shows you how long I've been around). Randy has been an on-again, off-again turntable guy and has also never been a Linn dealer.

I would probably go with Gene Rubin in Ventura. He hasn't been a Linn dealer for some time now, but he was for about 15 years and has set up hundreds, if not thousands of LP 12s.

Although, that might be a long haul for someone looking for a setup guy from LA South to San Diego. (I'm assuming that Stratguy is somewhere close to the midpoint of the LA & SD like Orange County)

Hell, I'm in LA and Ventura is a haul...A nice one, though.
Call Stan Zeiden at Shelly's Audio in Woodland Hills (a Linn dealer). He's the best Linn guy I know of in the Western U.S. Don't know if he would make a house call to AZ, though.
