Linn - the next rip off
According to a thread on PFM Linn dealers have been summoned to Glasgow for an announcement. What will it be? Will they jump on the fuse band waggon? £130 would be a bit cheap for them. They would need to add a 0.

Re: Linn - the next rip off
Maybe the company is finally folding? They've been wobbling for years by all accounts...
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way...The time has gone, The song is over, Thought I'd something more to say...

I don't think they will want all their dealers in the same room with them when they announce that!!

Re: Linn - the next rip off
Linn have not been wobbling for years, the financials they report are very healthy.

Flatpoopy seems to think it is an "improved" Urika Phono stage.

Re: Linn - the next rip off
When a company relies on huge margins and a low turn over their situation is not sound. If the announcement concerns the fruit box it seems they are targeting the same mugs who have followed the upgrade path for decades. Two years ago it was the £50 belt and a lot of eeeediots swallowed it. They could be thinking that this is an easier way to con the senile mugs than digital.Daniel Quinn wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2018 12:13 pm Linn have not been wobbling for years, the financials they report are very healthy.

Re: Linn - the next rip off
Its as sound as any company, the fact they rely on high margins tell you nothing.
