Stereonet UK test Limetree Phono – Jay Garrett van Stereonet UK test de Lindemann Limetree Phono en is zeer enthousiast. Hij prijst de zeer concurrerende prijs, de perfecte afwerking/constructie en uiteraard de uitmuntende geluidskwaliteit. Ondanks het minimalistische uiterlijk, heeft Lindemann niet bespaard op functionaliteit: er zijn aparte ingangen voor MM en MC en die laatste heeft een impedantie instelbaar tussen 100 en 800 Ohm.
Enkele quotes:
“There was a word that I scribbled circles around as well as underlining (and overlining) it many times during my test session, and that was “Cohesive”. That, for me, was the Lindemann Limetree’s overall skill. Moreover, because of that skill, I actually stopped listening to the new box in the chain more than once, and instead just enjoyed the music – and that’s what it should always be about.”
En zijn conclusie:
“From quickly researching Lindemann I was expecting a much larger price tag than £595 – that did not really change once I plugged it in either. It might have an odd name, but there is nothing funny about its performance. The fact that it sits well below the £1,000 mark makes it a bargain.
There would be no reason to be embarrassed by having a Limetree as your phono stage even if you owned a £10,000 turntable. However, for the rest of us, it will undoubtedly improve our more modest decks too.”
