Klimax LP12
The original and best...er
The Klimax LP12, with its not-so-secret recipe of a modular and upgradeable design, ensures that it constantly benefits from our latest, state-of-the-art technology. This guarantees that this modern classic remains the best option both today and in the future, continually improving over time.
With the Klimax LP12, you'll have the opportunity to rediscover your favorite albums, whether they are beloved classics or recently acquired, as if you were hearing them for the very first time.
The most recent version of our benchmark turntable, the Klimax LP12, delivers an even more musical and flawless performance. This is made possible by our advanced speed management technology, exceptionally quiet power supply, and innovative motor design. Furthermore, our team's extensive experiments in material science have led to the breakthrough of our brand-new flagship cartridge, contributing to the remarkable level of fidelity achieved.
“Stop throwing your vinyl records away; you haven’t heard what’s on them yet!”
