Linn's new Klimax Radikal is now available at Martins Hi-Fi, featuring a bespoke Utopik power supply that delivers the most significant performance upgrade for LP12 motor control we've seen.
What Makes It Special
The new Klimax Radikal features separate, dedicated power rails for controlling your LP12's motor and powering your Urika phono stage. These rails are independently self-regulating, meaning power demands from the motor never affect your phono stage, and vice versa. The result is more stable speed control and cleaner amplification of your vinyl signal.
Serious Engineering
The Utopik power supply sits in its own machined aluminium enclosure within the chassis, providing superior electrical isolation. The entire unit weighs nearly 14kg, machined from three pieces of solid aluminium and mounted on high-mass stainless steel feet with rubber inserts. This substantial construction delivers exceptional mechanical isolation from external vibrations.
The casework matches the machined aesthetic of the Klimax range, available in silver or black anodised finishes.
What You'll Hear
Upgrading to Klimax Radikal delivers:
- Blacker backgrounds revealing previously masked detail
- Improved bass weight and definition
- Enhanced soundstage depth and separation
- Extraordinary pitch stability that reveals instrument texture and timbre with startling realism
Is It Right for Your LP12?
If you're running an older Radikal with Dynamik power supply, or building a new Klimax LP12, the new Klimax Radikal represents the pinnacle of motor control technology. Yes, it's a premium component, but it's engineering that will serve your LP12 for decades.
