    Linn may not sell you a new laser for the Ikemi, but others like CPC do.
    Get the Ikemi, the transport is world class.

    I haven't heard it,what about a Cyrus CDXT SE as a transport,it's had some good reviews.
    Didn't Know the Meridian 500 had got to MK3, I've got MK2 and it's not a bad transport,but really sings once you add Trichord Mods (Clock 4 & NCPS)

    I bought a 588.24 to put me on while my CDX is repaired. Once I get the Naim back, the 588 may be up for sale if it's of interest.
