The Linn Sondek LP12 turns 45 this year and to celebrate this auspicious occasion we are having a birthday party here at Cymbiosis on Wednesday 25^th July 2018.

Whilst we can’t promise jelly and ice-cream, there will definitely be a birthday cake!

Katie and Garry from Linn will be here to give an informal presentation, talking about the Linn story and the history of the LP12 and playing a couple of records.

The Rega Planar 1 has been the most successful turntable that Rega have produced, but rather than sit on their laurels, they decided to see if they could make it even easier to use and more accessible to the new generation of people discovering vinyl replay and so the Rega Planar 1 Plus was born.

…and no, we’re not referring to Peter! In fact, this is a quote from What Hi-Fi? magazine who have just reviewed the current Linn Klimax LP12 turntable and despite it’s venerable age, have given it a glowing review and endorsement as one of the finest turntables around.

But there’s yet more!

Tiger Paw Tranquility, a device that significantly lowers the force acting upon the main bearing of the LP12, which in turn reduces friction and noise. Hence the sound quality improves!

The LP12 has a significant mass acting upon its main bearing as the inner and outer platters weigh close to 3.7Kg!
