To make things mechanically quieter than ever, an all-new acoustic housing decouples the motor from the deck more effectively. New Radikal’s cutting-edge motor design generates negligible electromagnetic interference, effectively eliminating it as a source of distortion. What’s more, new Radikal has migrated to a precision reference voltage, served up by a new DAC derived from technology found in Linn’s network streamer range.

These quieter, regulated supply rails not only provide impeccably pure power to the motor, but have the added halo effect of making Linn’s Urika phono stages sound even better. The improved board design at the heart of new Radikal incorporates whisper-quiet power supply rails, coupled with the use of smaller, more modern components – yielding the all-time lowest noise floor in a Sondek LP12.Īn all-new, 6-layer board – designed and manufactured in-house – facilitates shorter signal paths, smaller componentry, and minimal overall noise, via dedicated ground and power planes. Linn’s new, reference turntable power supply features hyper-accurate speed management technology generating sustained, uniform rotation closer to 331⁄3rpm than any turntable.Ĭustomers will experience even more of their music, in perfect pitch, thanks to a digitally (FPGA) managed motor control, and the latest, precision-engineered motor technology.Īccurate to five times tighter tolerance than its predecessor, new Radikal’s persistent auto- calibration makes for more consistent and accurate speed management than ever before – rendering its performance hyper-accurate and faithful to the recording. New RadikalĮven minor speed changes from a turntable’s motor will result in the music’s pitch deviating from the original performance. Its announcement heralds the arrival of two new components, available to order as upgrades to existing decks from today thanks to our peerless, modular turntable platform, established almost five decades ago. New Klimax LP12 is an equally exciting prospect for existing Sondek LP12 owners. Between our new Radikal motor, motor control unit, and power supply – and our new reference cartridge, Ekstatik – we’ve achieved an astonishing leap in performance.” “Announcing Sondek LP12 upgrades is always an exciting time at Linn but when they improve our very best version, the Klimax LP12, it’s doubly exciting.

Linn has designed, manufactured, and released more than forty upgrades for Sondek LP12 in the course of its forty-eight year history with each consecutive upgrade improving its performance, and keeping it ahead. New Klimax LP12 sustains rotation closer to 331⁄3rpm than any turntable and thus produces the most musical, pitch-perfect performance from a Sondek LP12 ever.
