I reckon it's a top plate ........ :smt001

And if it is - all those folks who said, in some cases fervently, that there can't be anything to improve because Linn have not changed it for donkey's years will have to find something else to say. Will they .......... 8)

If it's not a top plate then I await the announcement with interest because I don't really know what else it would be. As to the name I will have to have a further ponder on it ......... :smt023

I assume the Kandid is being retained in the range. Does anyone know? Otherwise it’s a huge step from Kendo to Ekstatik.

I have just checked and found I had an email from Linn announcing these new components. From there I selected a ‘build your own’ option, where I see that there are now no fewer than six(!) cartridges in the range: Ekstatik, Kandid, Kendo, Krystal, Koil and Adikt.

My take is that I don't think they will retain all six longer term. At the moment there will be existing stocks that they will want to sell. The Krystal is one that is most in 'danger' IMHO.
