Servicing a 1976 Sondek LP12

A turntable built in 1976 arrives at the Linn factory in Glasgow for servicing and upgrading. What follows is a masterclass in why the LP12 remains one of the most remarkable products in all of audio: nearly five decades later, it can still be upgraded to current-generation performance.

This short film from Linn follows the entire process, from inspection through to the final listening test. It is a quiet, absorbing watch — and a powerful reminder that buying an LP12 is not a purchase, it is an investment that outlasts everything else in your system.
