Vinyl records is almost at two decades of consecutive growth with 7.9% in the past 19th year. Safe to say vinyl is here to stay. Although for many of us, vinyl never left. Here are a few thoughts from us…

The single-most important component of any hi-fi system - the source of your music. The more information that you can get at the beginning of the system, the better. Your amplifier and speakers depend on it.

Travelling back to our 1995/96 trip to the Linn factory in Glasgow, Scotland. A purpose built facility, that at the time was only a few years old. It was built around Ivor's concept of 'Single Stage Build' - a discovery that an LP12 can be built quicker and to a higher standard if one person takes full ownership of its production (he/she also signs their name to the finished product).

A few more photos from the photo album to come, we’ll share it here first.

Today's colour-matched system, cherry finish. In focus, Linn's Majik Sondek LP12 - an ideal package to rediscover your vinyl collection. Paired with a olive Naim Audio and Cherry Fraim and our final pairs of Neat's Motive in Cherry.

The Majik is the ideal first step into high performance vinyl playback. Using carefully selected Linn-engineered components, this configuration allows you to experience the iconic Sondek LP12 in an affordable package.

The Majik LP12 is equipped with high performance Krane tonearm features a static-balanced design and is hand assembled with high quality, precision aluminium and stainless steel components. It includes a polished Tungsten and Sapphire vertical bearing with dual ceramic horizontal bearing assembly, both of which are long-lasting and provide very low friction/rotational mass.

Sometimes it’s a bit of luck, not only the knowledge. We had an enquiry for a Naim Audio NAC 32.5 and NAP 110, where one channel was not working. These units were originally released in the 80s, 40 years ago.

Over the phone, we narrowed down the potential cause to pre-amp's phono boards. This unit uses circuit boards that can be removed and replaced to support a moving magnet or moving coil cartridge. If only the 40+ year old unit still had replacement phono boards in production.

We had a deep dig into our ‘box’ of Naim spares and found a brand new set of factory-matching phono boards. This system is back with the owner, joining the many olive and chrome bumper Naim units that are still being enjoyed.

What number of versions and variants is too many? We have four copies of Norah Jones' Come Away With Me. CD and LP of the 20th Anniversary release, and another two that has had countless in-store listens.

Our excuse - a copy in each listening room. Valid? You can judge.

Recently unboxed - the IOTA II from Neat Acoustics. This tiny speaker does the impossible, building on the original IOTA with new refinements bringing improved bass extension and massive scale.

Right out of the box, we were once again impressed by the big sound from this tiny speaker and the musicality to back it up. The IOTA II will be a great match for a range of setups - an office system to one that will blend seamlessly with your living space.
