Linn Radikal and Urika II Power Supply and Phono Stage Bundle

Radikal is the highest performance motor control and power supply available for the Sondek LP12 turntable and comes complete with a brushed DC motor that replaces the standard LP12 AC motor. Radikal also powers the Urika II internal phono stage for the LP12, where fitted.

Radikal brings together several breakthrough technologies that enable a and innovative approach to motor control in the LP12, significantly improving its performance. To ensure perfect timing, Radikal’s speed management system auto-calibrates the motor every time the Sondek LP12 is powered on.

With radically reduced electromagnetic noise levels, the precious-metal brushed DC motor delivers a huge improvement in signal-to-noise ratio, getting you even closer to the music.

Due to the unique design of both Radikal and the Urika II phono stage, Radikal can be used on its own simply to power and control the motor, or in tandem with Urika II, for a doubly impressive upgrade.
