Linn's flagship Klimax LP12 turntable offers the pinnacle of vinyl reproduction today, setting the benchmark worldwide for all other turntables on the market.
Over 45 years' worth of research and development has gone into this latest evolution of the turntable that turned the hi-fi industry on its head back at the beginning of Linn's journey to make better sound. Each precision-engineered upgrade has uncovered more music from the depths of the record groove.
It includes the best of Linn's precision-engineered upgrades, and because it's modular, you can update it whenever Linn release a new upgrade. A Klimax LP12 is an investment that will amaze and reward you for years to come.
With Klimax LP12, you’ll experience your favourite albums – both cherished classics and those freshly unwrapped – as if it were for the first time.
The latest iteration of our reference turntable, Klimax LP12, produces an even more musical, pitch-perfect performance.
This is thanks to our latest, hyper-accurate speed management technology, whisper-quiet power supply, and cutting-edge motor design; and also to the level of fidelity achieved following our team’s extensive experiments in material science – culminating in the breakthrough that is our all-new flagship cartridge.
