Linn Majik LP12 Turntable

The Linn Sondek LP12 is perhaps one of the most iconic turntables in existence, and for good reason - the LP12 was created in 1973 when founder Ivor Tiefenbrun was unhappy with the sound of his recently acquired hifi system. After continually replacing and upgrading amplifiers and speakers, Ivor discovered that a hifi system is only ever as good as its source. Any musical information lost by the turntable can never be remedied further down the hi-fi system chain. Improving the isolation and materials of his turntable resulted in a major improvement in sound quality, and as such, the LP12 and Linn’s philosophy of ‘Source First’ was born.

Since then, Linn has been continuously researching and designing ways to further improve vinyl playback, from improved bearings to smoother, low noise power supplies and quieter, powerful motors. What’s more, every Linn LP12 can be upgraded and improved via Linn designed components such as arm board, sub-chassis, main bearing and dc power supplies, no matter the age, meaning your investment can last a lifetime.
