Simple, it's the Linn CD-12 CD Player. It's the top of Linn's C.D player range, & in Britain, costs some 12,000 pounds ($18,000)to buy! The Reason I know this, was I was invited to a demonstration of Linn products in August. We were asked to do a A/B comparison with their top turntable, the test system cost approxmately 100,000 ($150,0000 to buy, as they were also showcasing their top of the range loudspeakers! Knowing the cost of the CD-12, I think the technician would like to introduce the engineer/cup-holder designer to the delights of a "Glasgow Kiss" i.e headbutting, before strangling him with a 1 metre lead of Van Der Hul copper free carbon fibre interconnect! Reason: all Linn products are made in a factory located near Glasgow, Scotland.

Re:the Linn Sondek C.D player I attended a Hi-Fi World exhibition of Linn products, in Central London this year. They were doing a A/B comparison between their Sondek C.D Player & their LN12 record (vinyl) turntable. The C.D player costs in the U.K, approximately 12,000 pounds to buy, and the system it was a part of, 120,000 pounds!
