About the LP12 Lingo
The Linn Lingo is a specialized power supply unit engineered to enhance the performance of the Linn LP12 Sondek turntable. It features two low-noise crystal oscillators, one for 33.33 rpm and another for 45 rpm, derived from Linn's Numerik digital recording system. These oscillators generate high-frequency signals that are divided down to 50Hz or 67.5Hz using TTL chips, then filtered to produce a clean sinusoidal waveform. This waveform is amplified to 120V and drives both phases of the motor, ensuring smooth and consistent rotation. The Lingo includes a stall detection circuit to provide increased start-up torque, which reduces once the platter reaches the desired speed. It is housed in a compact, powder-painted metal chassis and connects to the LP12 via an umbilical cable.
