Upgrades for Linn Sondek LP12 turntable

. Find out why John Atkinson of US's Stereophile magazine got stuck with the Linn Ittok LV II pick-up arm for most of the last eight years' worth of listening? . So how about the Ittok? . "Mechanically, it mates perfectly with the Sondek LP12 turntable, as is to be expected. Setting it up is a breeze—its begetters foresaw all the problems arm installers meet and designed the solutions in. Its effective mass is pretty much optimal, giving a good interface with any medium-compliance, average-mass cartridge, the LF resonance being placed in the appropriate part of the infrasonic spectrum. Its bass is clean, tight, and extended." —John Atkinson. . . . Best in British audio technology

. If you want a slice of Audio Nirvana, you are in the right place! . FOR THOSE WANTING TOP CLASS SOUND. . Linn ITTOK LV II pick-up arm with CARDAS wiring — for Sondek LP12 turntable. . . . I am selling the famous, high-quality and much beloved classic Linn ITTOK LV II arm. . . Complete rewire & service done by Audio Origami, Glasgow, Scotland, on 6th. May 2012. Internal wire: Cardas 33ga OFC Copper Litz, paid £120.00 or RM600.00. . This wire is super pure and excellent, Cardas quality, as always. The Audio Origami rewire addresses the main weakness of Linns factory arms, i.e. relatively low rent wiring. . This will compliment the ITTOK tonearm perfectly and will offer a great improvement in sound quality over the stock wire, which will enable the ITTOK tonearm to show you what it can really do ! . . Postage to & fro to Audio Origami, U.K. is £20 x 2 = £40 or RM200.00 Total expenses: RM600 + RM200 = RM800.00. . Now with the new genuine CARDAS wiring, it sounds much better than the standard unit. . . . . . . . . . . . . Picture above : AO (Audio Origami) sticker on the ITTOK tonearm — the arm has undergone an upgrading mode/work using CARDAS wires at AO. The Audio Origami rewire addresses the main weakness of Linns factory arms, i.e. relatively low rent wiring and arm/arm-cable connector.
Jonnie at Audio Origami has been very helpful, he has also serviced the arm (bearings, VTF & anti-skating dials) before shipping it back to us. Now it sounds exemplary - all the speed, weight and authority you would expect from this dynamic and musically engaging classic, and the added refinement and nuance revealed by the Audio Origami mods (over £120.00 in themselves).
A fabulous investment. .Audio Origami is a turntable tonearm (pick-up arm) "specialist", who repair, service and upgrade all brands of tonearm. The company is located in Glasgow, Scotland, U.K. . So yes - it should be a fine example of an “upgraded” ITTOK pick-up arm now ! . . . . . The ITTOK pick-up arm Serial No. 5001868 . This state-of-the-art tonearm specially brought in from overseas. . This was Linn's top-of-the-range arm. Later superseded by the Ekos. ! . This arm has only ever been used on one Linn Sondek LP12 deck. . . Passes the Linn "swing" and "paper test" with ease. Both the weight dial and anti-skating dial work perfectly, and smooth on the tonearm. . The Linn ITTOK LV II tonearm is “one of the most important pieces of British hi-fi to be sold in the last 25-years, and still as popular today due to its unsurpassed build and sound quality.” . LPs after LPs it draws you into the music and it makes you forget about everything .......... enjoy MUSIC! It seeps into your soul and you become one with it. . Therefore not surprising many audiophiles feel that the Linn ITTOK LV II pick-up arm (which is out of production now and being replaced by Ekos) is the better arm till today and as a result many are still looking for it. . ,,, ... ... ...
Comes complete with fixing bolts, tonearm audio cable with RCA plugs, headshell 4-wires (red, blue, green & white colour wires), arm-rest, alignment protractor and installation manual. . NOTE: We could also fix the arm to your Sondek LP12 deck without any labour charges. . . The Linn ITTOK LV II tonearm will be securely packed for local or international shipping. . . .

It should be a fine example of an “upgraded” ITTOK pick-up arm now. . You just can't get any better than this Linn ITTOK LV II tonearm —unless if you are willing to part RM6,000.00 for an Ekos arm, thrust me on this! Go on, treat yourself, you can always move it on if it doesn't sail your boat.
Anyone who wants to upgrade the old LP12 needs one of these! More value than any other upgrades!
This is one of the most fundamental Linn upgrades. If you are still using the old Linn LVV, LVX, LVX Plus (Basik PLus) or Akito pick-up arm, or any other non-Linn tonearm you don't know what your Sondek LP12 turntable is capable of yet!
. I have owned many other brands (turntable) but will always go back to Linn because I felt that there is always something "missing" (?) with other brands. . Many Linnies believe that the combination of Sondek LP12 deck and ITTOK LV II pick-up arm brings out the best performance from the turntable, and I am one of them!
Rated: 9/10, 1st. class condition. ...New: 10/10.

. Linn's top tonearm in the 1980's.
The brief was to design a tone arm that performs to the same standard as the Linn Sondek LP12 turntable.
The result is the Linn Ittok LV II pick-up arm which has been acknowledged as a significant advance in disc playing equipment.
The Linn Ittok LV II was designed with several performance features in mind.
First, stability. It it a coherent mechanical system designed to maintain a precise relationship between the cartridge and turntable.
This is due in part to a bearing system that minimises intermittent or continuous loss of dynamic accuracy.
Second, simplicity. Dials for both tracking weight and bias force enables easy and highly accurate adjustment, making the Ittok simple to install and convenient to use. .
.
Specifications Effective mass : 11.5g Tracking force : 0 to 3g Cartridge weight : 3 to 9g Effective length : 229mm Overhang : 18mm Mounting distance : 211mm Lateral friction : <20mg Horizontal friction : <20mg

"In its price category the Ittok remains an outstanding design with a fine combination of technical performance, sound quality and finish." —Hi-Fi Choice magazine 1983.
. "In our view the Ittok's strengths lie in its subjective speed of response to transients, it's fine transparency and it's ability to reveal atmosphere, depth and detail." —Hi-Fi Choice magazine 1984. . .
