Description
Linn Selekt LP12 turntable sits between the Majik LP12 and Klimax LP12 and is designed to replace the Akurate LP12, essentially taking the best of its predecessor and improving it. A real sweet spot in the LP12 range with worthy upgrades over Majik but at a much more accessible price than Klimax.
New Tonearm and Cartridge
Fundamentally this turntable includes everything the Akurate LP12 spec version did with the addition of a new Arko tonearm and Kendo MC phono cartridge. Selekt LP12 features the following as standard:
- Kendo Cartridge,
- Arko Tonearm,
- Karousel Bearing,
- Lingo Power Supply,
- Kore Armboard,
- Trampolin Suspension Feet
Of course as LP12 is fully modular, we can build one to your specifications, but the Arko and Kendo are perfectly matched and we recommend sticking with the Selekt spec at this level which is very well specified.
Beautifully Finished
As we’ve come to expect from the iconic LP12 design, everything is beautifully finished and the plinth is available in a choice of six standard wood finishes (Rosenut, Black Ash, Piano Black, Oak, Cherry & Walnut) with a choice of high gloss colours and also a custom colour matching service where Linn can match the finish to any colour you like – allowing you to truly match it to your room or setup.
The LP12 plinth is also available with smooth or fluted edges, where fluting is the more traditional option. Please contact us to order and we will be happy to help.
Sonically Stunning
As you would expect Selekt LP12 is specified to get the best sound from your vinyl and delivers excellent soundstaging, thanks in no small part to the Arko matched with Kendo, both no compromise purist designs that elevate the mid-level LP12 to new heights - an incredibly accomplished turntable at a more accessible price point to Klimax.
A Family Matter
You can marry up the Selekt LP12 with the dedicated Linn Uphorik phono stage for best performance.
Selekt LP12 is part of the Selekt family of Linn products which also includes Selekt streamers so if building a system from scratch, we recommend partnering with one of these and Linn Akurate speakers.
