Now Is the Time to Rediscover Your LP12
For decades, the Linn LP12 has stood as a symbol of everything we love about music — warmth, rhythm, presence, and connection. It is not just a turntable; it is a time machine, one that takes you back to the heart of every performance. But even legends evolve.
At Definitive, we have lived with the LP12 since its earliest days, and one thing has never changed — Linn’s relentless pursuit of better. That pursuit continues today with a new generation of upgrades that elevate what is already extraordinary into something truly transcendent.
Now is the perfect time to rediscover what your LP12 can do.
The Klimax Exaktbox: Perfect Timing, Perfect Harmony
The Klimax Exaktbox takes the art of precision to new heights. Acting as the digital brain of your system, it perfectly aligns every frequency, every note, and every detail in time. The result is music that feels startlingly real — instruments appear in their true space, voices breathe with life, and every recording unfolds with new depth and dimension.
Paired with Linn’s Organik DAC and Utopik power supply, the Exaktbox brings out a level of naturalness that simply must be heard to be believed. It is not an upgrade you just hear; it is one you feel.
The Klimax Radikal: Power Reimagined
The LP12 has always been about movement, a delicate balance between motion and stillness. The new Klimax Radikal takes that idea further than ever. With a newly machined chassis, advanced motor control, and Utopik power supply technology, it delivers silent precision, absolute speed accuracy, and effortless stability.
The result is blacker backgrounds, deeper dynamics, and timing so precise it feels alive. The Machined Radikal does not just spin your records, it unveils them.
Keel SE: Engineering Elegance
For those chasing the purest form of musical connection, the Keel SE represents the pinnacle of LP12 engineering. Carved from a single piece of aluminum, it integrates the subchassis, armboard, and tonearm collar into one continuous structure. This design minimizes vibration and resonance, allowing the stylus to track every groove with breathtaking accuracy.
The sound is tighter, faster, and more dynamic — every note anchored in absolute control. It is the kind of upgrade that makes your entire collection feel new again.
Why Now
The LP12 is a lifelong companion, one that evolves with you. Whether you have owned yours for decades or recently discovered its magic, now is the time to explore what is possible. The current generation of upgrades represents Linn’s finest work to date, and the performance leap is profound.
We have each of these components — Klimax Exaktbox, Klimax Radikal, and Keel SE — available for demonstration in our Experience Center. Hearing them together is like rediscovering your LP12 for the first time.
Your LP12. Perfected.
Upgrading your LP12 is not about replacing what you love, it is about deepening it. The warmth remains. The soul remains. What changes is the clarity with which you experience it.
