Up for sale is a superb Linn Sondek LP12 fitted with a Roksan Nima unipivot arm.

The Valhalla power supply was serviced a couple of years ago by Class A in Sheffield. The Valhalla board has had new electrolytic capacitors installed and will be reliable for many years. See photos.

This is a pre-cirkus bearing LP12 and this type of LP12 has the most musical sound in my opinion. It also really suits the Nima arm.

The Rega fit arm board for the NIma arm is an official Linn LP12 arm board and has a double sandwich MDF construction.

The unipivot Roksan Nima arm works really well on the Linn LP12 and this combo has been long known to have great synergy. The combo gives a musical, detailed and clear sound. The Nima is a significant upgrade on older Linn arms such as the Linn Ittok. Pivoted arms like the Ittok can also be prone to bearing issues, - the Nima doesn’t have the problem due its unipivot design. It’s a later version Nima mk2 (with the opaque acrylic section at the unipivot)

In the past I have tried the Naïm Aro unipivot arm on the LP12 but ended up preferring the Nima. Cones with Nima arm packaging/box and all accessories. I’ll also include a tiny headshell spirit level (for adjusting cartridge azimuth)

The deck itself is in good overall condition. It has some small marks here and there up close. The inner platter and top plate has a bit of smudgingrg discolouration but it’s not noticeable when the outer platter is in place.

The outer platter has a small bit of a mark up close in one place which I have photographed, but it isn’t really noticeable unless looked at closely - and could be rubbed out if necessary using metal cleaner.

The cartridge currently installed is the excellent Ortofon 2M Red moving magnet.

The deck with a recent clear Linn Lid in good condition. I will pack well for postage
