Introduced in 1973, the Sondek LP12 was Linn’s first product and helped demonstrate that the most important element in any quality music system is the source of the music itself. Continually developed, improved and upgraded ever since, the LP12 is precision-engineered in-house by Linn with every component designed and made at the company’s HQ in Glasgow. To this day, the LP12 still sets the benchmark for turntables worldwide, getting more music out of your cherished vinyl collection.

With events in cities across the UK (including London, Glasgow, Manchester, Leeds, Nottingham, Leicester, York Winchester, Guildford, Carlisle, Norwich, Hull, Cambridge, Chester and Bath), Vinyl Adikt Day is a rare chance to hear your vinyl at its best and appreciate why the format is enjoying a resurgence in popularity.
