Former Apple Chief Design Officer Jony Ive helped design the £50,000 ($65,098) Linn x LoveFrom Sondek LP12-50 turntable in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the original LP12 turntable. Upgrades include precision-machined metal hinges that make the dust cover extremely responsive and a new, circular power switch machined from solid aluminum.
A new ‘Bedrok’ plinth, which acts as the base of the turntable, is machined from a single block of an incredibly dense new type of wood created by compressing layers of beech under extreme pressure. Linn’s engineers believe this mew plinth technology takes the Sondek LP12-50 to a new level of sonic performance. The Sondek LP12-50 will be limited to 250-units worldwide and available in a wood or white finish.

It has indeed been a collaboration in the truest sense, each team showing total respect for the other’s skill set, each contributing the very best they have to offer in the most wonderful spirit of friendship and cooperation. The result is our best-sounding, best-looking and most usable Sondek LP12 ever,” said Gilad Tiefenbrun, CEO at Linn.
