Hello all, I've just bought an RD80 and was told that it was the model the
LP12 was based upon. They were built in the same factory in Scotland (nr the
airport)

I was also told that Linn patented the design and sold thousands of LP12's
while the owner of Ariston committed suicide.

Is the above correct?

If so, shame on all you LP12 owners.


I would have thought that the 'floating' Thorens designs preceeded both of them..
