The birthday party, which was held on Wednesday 25^th was a great success with both sessions being well attended by expectant LP12 enthusiasts. Not sure whether that was because of the two birthday cakes in the shape of the LP12, or to listen to the real thing playing!

The Linn Sondek LP12 turns 45 this year and to celebrate this auspicious occasion we are having a birthday party here at Cymbiosis on Wednesday 25^th July 2018.

Whilst we can’t promise jelly and ice-cream, there will definitely be a birthday cake!

Katie and Garry from Linn will be here to give an informal presentation, talking about the Linn story and the history of the LP12 and playing a couple of records.

After the success of the Katalyst upgrade for the Linn Klimax network players, there was the inevitable question of if and when it would be available for the Akurate DS and DSM players.

Well we are pleased to announce that Linn have now released Katalyst for the Akurate players with immediate effect.

Linn have recently announced two new upgrades for the Sondek LP12, with the arrival of the Urika II phono stage and the new Lingo power supply.

To enable you to hear these upgrades for yourself, we are holding an open day on Saturday 24^th February 2018, when Linn engineer Cameron Sharpe will be here with us to explain the technology and demonstrate the fantastic capabilities of these exciting new products.
