Linn LP12 Bedrok Plinth

Product Spotlight: Linn LP12 Bedrok™ Plinth


Overview

The Linn LP12 Bedrok™ Plinth is Linn's first-ever performance upgrade to the iconic LP12 turntable's structural base. Linn originally introduced the Bedrok Plinth on the limited-edition LP12‑50 model, this groundbreaking plinth is now available as an upgrade option for existing LP12 owners.


Crafted from multiple orthogonal layers of natural beech, compressed using extreme heat and pressure, the Bedrok material is more than twice as dense as a standard LP12 plinth. This high-density composite eliminates inconsistencies in resonance and vastly improves the turntable's vibration resistance.

Engineering & Design

  • Made from resin-bonded beech micro-laminates in a cross-grain configuration.
  • Precision-machined for compatibility with all Sondek LP12 components.
  • Features an oil-finished natural beech appearance, with no other finish options due to the material’s density and resin composition.
  • Offers enhanced rigidity, ultra-low resonance, and an impeccably balanced center of mass.
