Your LP12 Perfectly In Step With Your Favorite Music

Introducing Zeus - A precision optical speed controller for the Linn LP12 — tighter rhythm, lower motor noise, rock-solid pitch stability. Welcome to a more immersive vinyl listening experience.

Linn Valhalla with leaking electrolytic capacitors and charred resistors

Many older LP12s now suffer from aging power supplies, making them an ideal platform for improvements

Original LP12 power supplies used components that have now aged and drifted out of specification:

  • Capacitor leakage,
  • Voltage instability,
  • Increased motor vibration, wow & flutter
  • Blurred musical detail,
  • Inconsistent speed.

Zeus solves these problems with modern components and precise control – raising your LP12 to even higher performance levels than when it was first made!

Many LP12s are no longer running at 33.33 rpm

How Zeus knows the true speed

OPTICAL SPEED SENSOR TECHNOLOGY

Zeus

Zeus uses a precise optical sensor to measure the actual platter speed in real time.

  • High accuracy,
  • Unaffected by temperature,
  • Unaffected by motor and belt wear,
  • Real-time feedback.
