Wanted: Linn LV V tonearm

[rodgerdodger15]

Does anybody have a Linn Basik LV V tonearm in good cosmetic condition and good working order to move on? Please pm me if you do.

Good luck they are like rocking horse poo.

When they come up on eBay they are ridiculous prices.

One for sale ebay Italy: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/223220536331

No cable or headshell included.

I've seen that one but it is far too expensive. I have bought two Linn LV Vs through ebay in the last few months and one of them was less than half the price of the Italian one on offer. I have a great many vintage decks and I'm looking to put S shaped arms with removeable headshells on the main ones so I can easily swap cartridges over. I've given up on Rega R200s as I have bought two of those recently and both have had wiring faults as well as the perished bias belt issues. The Linns both seem to work flawlessly and I like the look of them. I have some current Rega arms which I'm planning to move on at some point. It's all about the vintage look as far as I am concerned at this point. Nostalgia Rules!

I have one, see image. It has no headshell, and has a connecting cable that has been cut at 180mm

Let me know if that might be suitable.

That might be suitable if it is fully working and the cable is terminated in some way. You just missed showing it in the photo. Or maybe you did. I can solder to some extent. Please pm me with a price.

Hi Roger
The cable presently has no connector. It suggests female RCA would be suitable , but if you have other choice
let me know. I am just off to sleep now being at the other end of the world, so will PM you in the morning.
