Linn LP12 from the Loft Part 2
A customer brought an LP12 in for service. It had been in the loft for a number of years. You can see how it arrived in Part 1.
The LP12 is orginally from 1983 and was supplied by Sound Organisation (still a Linn dealer in York, UK).
The original plinth has split at one corner and the customer wanted a refresh so we swapped to a pre-owned Cherry plinth we had in stock.
The rest of the parts just needed a good clean and some TLC.
Here is a summary:
-
Swapped to a pre-owned Cherry Plinth
-
Serviced the Valhalla motor controller (capacitors, rectifier etc)
-
New Belt
-
Fitted a pre-owned Cirkus bearing and new oil
-
New Hana EH cartridge
-
New Suspension components (upper bushes, springs, lower bushes)
-
New Lid
Please get in contact if you have an LP12 in need of some care and attention.
