Legendary Linn LP12 turntable in great condition.  Has upgraded power supply and power switch and vintage yet relevant SME tonearm.  The hinges have been also upgraded to the modern style that hold the cover open automatically.  The armboard was refinished in a carbon fiber look for a more relevant appearance and is simply stunning.  A fresh new belt was also fitted. 



Includes a removable original tonearm cable. There is not bottom cover but I'm my opinion its not needed.  



I have tuned this table to perfection using the best tools available included a Linn tuning and spring adjustment table, Fozgometer azymuth meter, Project protractor, oscilloscope and a plethora of test LP's.




Cosmetically the table is very nice considering its age.  The wood finish is lush and free from significant fading or discoloration and the tonearm is intact. The cover has the usual light scratches and swirls but nothing too bad.  



Table includes a basic Grado cartridge (not the pictured Sumiko) but we can fit it a the following options which will include calibration (about a 2hr detailed process of perfectly setting an calibrating many parameters to ensure highest performance). 




   1. New ClearAudio Concept $250



  1. New Sumiko BluePoint #2 $449

  2. New Sumiko BluePoint special Evo 3 $549

  3. New ClearAudio Virtuoso V2 Ebony $899 

  4. New Sumiko Blackbird MC $1249

  5. Pre-Owned Van-den-hall MC10 MC Cartridge ($1500) for $900




To purchase any of these just send an offer for the asking price of the table PLUS the cartridge cost above.  It will take about a week to process and install. 




Includes table, arm, cover, Grado cartridge, cable and rare operation and service manuls.



Will be carefully packed for safe arrival.  Pickup available in NJ/NYC.



WHO WE ARE 


Skyfi.nyc is a small startup business specializing in the purchase, reconditioning and reselling of select high end audio equipment.  We only buy equipment the we admire and are passionate about.  No mid-fi, no gimmicks and no junk.  



Each piece of equipment is cosmetically restored and fully tested in our well-equipped lab by an engineer with 30+ years of experience in the Hifi world.  If it does not meet or exceed the original manufactures specifications, it will not be sold.  We are select about the equipment we purchase, focusing on mostly analog, high-build quality, American and European built units.



Through our sister company, which is an authorized dealer for McIntosh, Audio Research, Sonus Faber, ClearAudio, Project and Sony ES, we have access to OEM parts and service support.  If you are local and are looking for any new equipment for the above mentioned manufacturers, please drop us a line as we can arrange both sales and professional installation in the tri-state area




PURCHASING GUIDELINES


If you would like to make an offer, please don't email or message us unless you are looking to trade something in.  



If we are accepting offers, you will see a button on the listing page to do so.  Please use it, as it is very hard to track offers through email or messaging.  This way, we are all also better protected.   If you don’t see a “offer” button its because we are not taking offers on this item.  Please don’t bother to make one.  



PAYMENTS


We prefer working through PayPal, which allows you to use a credit card or bank transfer.  We do not charge extra for any payment fees.  You can also send us a personal check (which will need to clear before shipping), certified check, money order or wire transfer.  International clients without access to PayPal should use a bank wire transfer. 



If you are picking up an item, we don not accept PayPal, you must pay in person with cash, certified or bank check or wire transfer.  If you make a PayPal payment it will be returned. 



TRADE IN POLICY 


We accept trade-ins of equal or lesser value under certain conditions.  Simply ask and let us know the exact model, condition and what accessories are included such as a box, remote, manual, etc.  We will only consider high-end equipment from mainstream manufacturers such as McIntosh, Mark Levinson, Audio Research, Krell, etc. and will typically pass on displays, projectors, receivers, dated processors and mid-fi equipment of any type.  We will offer a fair value for your equipment, but keep in mind we are running a business and will need to be able to sell the equipment at a profit after investing a great deal of time and resources in testing, certifying, repairing, cleaning and packaging the incoming equipment.  If you are looking for top dollar we suggest attempting to sell it directly to an end user.  



SELL US YOUR GEAR (Working or Broken)


We will also purchase your used or broken gear and arrange pickup if you are in our local market.  Just drop us a note for a quote, but be sure to include the condition and what is included.  



HOW TO VISIT US


We are currently operating from a residence in Ridgewood, NJ.  You are welcome to make an appointment if there is a piece of equipment you would like to see in operation before or after purchase.  We have a well-equipped, dedicated listening room with tons of equipment of all makes and models.  We are not a store, so please don’t make an appointment if you are just curious as to how a speaker or piece of equipment sounds.  In essence, no tire kickers please.  



If you are in NYC and cannot make it out to Ridgewood, we can arrange pickup in Union Square (14th Street) after the purchase.   You can call or text  (646) 852-2073 with any questions or to schedule an appointment.  We can also arrange to install, calibrate and tune the gear in your listening room if you are in the local area.  This is super useful when purchasing large speakers or heavy amplifiers.  It is also great for ensuring your new turntable is setup correctly in its final resting place.  



Thanks for looking and please send us your email address if you would like to receive a list of the equipment we receive from time to time.  We promise not to bombard you with junk email.
