The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition

When will we see it on the cover of Stereophile?

So half the production already sold? Good news for Linn! There will always be some really expensive shiny new toy to catch the eye of some new dot.com millionaire! Too bad it can't be worn on the wrist!

For $65K here on Agon you can buy a Caliburn Continuum DD TT with Cobra arm and Castellon stand. A way better choice than the new LP12!

@perkri +1! I have the pre-Linn Ariston RD and the later Ariston RD11S in my TT collection, along with an LP12. Ivor did indeed copy Stuart Hamish’s Ariston. In fact Ivor had Stuart build the first year’s LP12 production at the Ariston factory in Scotland. Both the Ariston and Linn are excellent belt-drive TT’s derived from the much-earlier Acoustic Research (AR) TT from Edgar Vilchur (half a million sold!).

Two years ago we had the $35K LP12 on the cover of Stereophile. So even more now for the 50th Anniversary edition! This is a ’statement’ product to anchor Linn’s place in the top-tier of High End audio - like those $375K mono amps from DarTZeel in Switzerland!
