One of the most effective upgrades available for all decks is our universal power supply. Especially popular with owners of Linn Valhalla and Lingo power supplies is the origin live Advanced DC Motor Upgrade - this is often used by Lingo owners to massively upgrade their performance - if you have a Valhalla power supply then this no risk, easy to fit, fully reversible mod is a tremendous upgrade and excellent value for money.

LP12 Ittock Basik Ekos Upgrade

Upgrading Your Tonearm

If your current tonearm is a Linn Ekos, Ittock, Akito, Basic, SMEV, Naim Arrow, Graham etc - it is well worth upgrading to one of our own arms to improve performance very significantly. We offer a variety of arms depending on your budget. It is worth mentioning that although standard Rega arms do not work particularly well on the Linn, the case for Origin Live modified arms or the Silver arm series is an entirely different story. - we supply new predrilled arm boards so that this can be easily carried out.

The Ringmat is often a big surprise in terms of just how much it improves the sound of the LP12 - this device tends not to work very well on acrylic platters but it works wonders on the Linn LP12.

Cartridges are a sure fire way of upgrading your deck but bear in mind that the tonearm is more important. We offer and recommend a large range of cartridges along with performance ratings.

GSP Gram Phono StagePhono Stages

The phono stage can easily make or break a vinyl based system. This stage of amplification is absolutely crucial - more so than the pre-amp or amplifier stage - if you have any doubts about this we urge you to get a demonstration of something like the gram phono stages.
