Is there a Dr. in the house!?
« on: February 28, 2010, 09:50:03 AM »
Help!

My LP12 dust cover needs Viagra!


The hinges won't keep the dust cover up.  I find if I open, then close the dust cover over and over, about a gazillion times, it somehow regains a bit of it's ability to stay open - but that's a royal pain in the @ss!

...and for all of you jokers out there, it's my turntable with the problem - NOT me!

Anyone know how to revitalize the hinges or where I can buy replacements?

Thanks!

Here's a whole discussion of the issue at the Linn forum.

Apparently Linn dealers can get new hinges.

Bill,

The Ebay listing is charging almost 2 1/2  times the price shown in the thread from the Linn forum. Maybe there is a local Linn dealer you can pick these up from

 And remember, if the cover stays up for more than 4 hours, seek the immediate attention of a Linn technician. aa
