LINN Turntable Sub-Chassis
Flagship machined sub-chassis and armboard for Sondek LP12
Keel SE is the super evolution of Linn’s highest-performance LP12 sub-chassis.
With Keel SE, Linn’s engineers have comprehensively improved upon the original using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Thanks to this revolutionary technology, Linn has been able to evaluate all limitations of previous sub-chassis designs and break free from them, using a combination of cutting-edge virtual prototyping and their own enhanced in-house machining capabilities. The outcome is a new and visibly improved machined sub-chassis with superior stiffness, optimised resonant behaviour, and ideal distribution of mass.
An intricate bracing structure machined into the underside of Keel SE – designed using a mixture of manual and computer-aided optimisations – has helped Linn achieve their number one goal of increasing sub-chassis stiffness as much as possible. This significant 300% increase versus previous designs means that any vibrations travelling through Keel SE have their frequencies forced higher, and their energy substantially lowered.
Optimised resonant behaviour allows Keel SE to better break up and dissipate problematic acoustic energy, reducing its potential impact on the delicate music signal.
By machining aluminium from calculated areas beneath the armboard, Keel SE has its centre of mass balanced more evenly on its suspension compared to other sub-chassis models. This improves weight distribution between the springs and reduces inertia, improving the critical acoustic isolation properties of any LP12.
Kore
Following the same design philosophy as our flagship Keel, the Kore sub-chassis and armboard is an essential upgrade step for anyone looking to improve their LP12 and bring it up to Akurate-level performance.
Strengthened by a multi-layer, box construction of 1.5mm thick aluminium, the Kore’s sub-chassis is designed for extra rigidity and removal of unwanted damping, ensuring a more faithful reproduction of your vinyl. Three layers are bonded together using a unique Linn-specified adhesive to form an incredibly stiff structure, while keeping the weight low.
The Kore armboard is precisely machined from solid aluminium and further strengthened with ribs on the underside to provide the ultimate rigidity. This is then bonded to the sub-chassis so that the assembly mirrors the valuable properties of a single piece; as the arm collar is bolted directly to the sub-chassis, the arm has a direct connection to the bearing.
- Aluminium subchassis
- Machined-from-solid armboard
- Compatible with Linn Ekos SE, Ekos, Akito, and Ittok tonearms
- Versions also available for Rega, SME & Naim tonearms
Majik
Providing a solid and rigid platform for the LP12, the Majik Sub-chassis is fitted as standard to the Majik LP12 turntable. Also available separately as an upgrade, this latest design offers increased performance for any earlier deck that features the older ‘standard’ sub-chassis design.
The multi-layer box construction of 1.5mm thick aluminium provides strength and rigidity and when teamed up with the LP12’s five-layer laminated armboard, creates a firm and acoustically damp platform for your tonearm.
