Mycket välvårdad, regelbundet servad och justerad klassisk LP12. Spelar otroligt bra. Verket är ursprungligen från 1976-1977 (serienummer: 17224) men åtskilliga uppgraderingar har gjorts genom åren. Originaldelar: Plint i Afromosia, bottenplatta, yttertallrik samt dammlock i gott skick med intakta gångjärn och ”stödpinne”. Uppgraderingar: Tonarm: Linn Ittok LVII mk2 (Toppskick och fina lager, aktuellt swingtest: 50+) Pickup: Linn Arkiv B (MC i mycket bra skick och spelar utmärkt.
Timing matters a bit here because the LP12 is a long-lived classic rather than a rapidly obsolete design, so what you’re really judging is condition and setup rather than generation. At kr 28,000, this sits below the median of kr 32,006 and comfortably inside the normal used range between kr 25,689 and kr 36,746, so it reads as a fair-to-good buy rather than anything ambitious.
The appeal is straightforward: the LP12 is one of the most respected belt-drive decks ever made, prized for timing, rhythm, and upgradeability, and a clean example can be a real long-term keeper. The upside is strongest if this one includes a solid arm, PSU, and recent service, because those details move the value a lot more than the base deck alone; with condition listed as unknown, I’d want those specifics before calling it a steal.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Linn Products: Brand Overview
Linn Products was founded in 1973 by Scottish engineer Ivor Tiefenbrun in Glasgow as a vehicle to manufacture the Sondek LP12 turntable, which would become the company's most iconic product and a cornerstone of high-fidelity audio. The brand emerged during the golden era of British hi-fi with a revolutionary "source first" philosophy—challenging the prevailing industry belief that loudspeakers mattered most by demonstrating that superior sound quality begins with the audio source. This foundational principle has guided the company's engineering ethos for over five decades.
Linn's product portfolio spans the complete hi-fi chain, from turntables and tonearms to preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and loudspeakers. The company introduced the world's first microprocessor-controlled preamplifier and power amplifier in 1985 (the LK1 and LK2), establishing itself as an electronics specialist. From 2007 onward, Linn pivoted toward digital music streaming, becoming an early adopter of network-based audio playback supporting studio master-quality recordings at 24-bit/192 kHz resolution, and discontinued CD player production in 2009 to focus on this strategic direction.
Linn occupies the high-end segment of the audio market, commanding respect among discerning audiophiles and collectors for its uncompromising engineering approach and longevity. The brand's reputation rests on meticulous product design, acoustic isolation principles, and a commitment to eliminating weak links in the signal chain—a philosophy that has made Linn one of the most influential manufacturers in hi-fi history and a benchmark for quality-focused audio engineering.
