Linn Radikal Power Supply – Akurate Enclosure
Radikal is Linn’s highest-performance motor control unit and power supply for the iconic Sondek LP12 turntable. Featuring a precision-engineered brushed DC motor that replaces the standard LP12 AC motor, Radikal delivers a transformative upgrade in vinyl playback accuracy and musical detail.
Designed with cutting-edge technology, Radikal introduces a groundbreaking approach to motor control. Its advanced speed management system auto-calibrates the motor on every power-up, ensuring exceptional rotational stability and perfect pitch accuracy.
In addition to driving the motor, Radikal also powers the Urika internal phono stage (where installed), enabling a fully integrated upgrade path within the LP12 ecosystem.
A key benefit lies in its dramatically reduced electromagnetic noise floor. The precious-metal brushed DC motor significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio, allowing more of the music’s nuance and dynamics to emerge with breathtaking clarity.
