It combines a precision-controlled DC motor with sophisticated digital speed management, providing exceptionally accurate and consistent platter rotation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a major step up from Linn’s AC motor-based power supplies, Radikal monitors platter speed on every rotation and automatically calibrates the motor when the turntable is switched on. This level of control helps the LP12 maintain precise speed, timing and pitch, allowing the cartridge to extract music from the record groove with greater accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePrecision Motor Control\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe motor is fundamental to the performance of any turntable. Variations in rotational speed can affect pitch, timing and musical coherence, making accurate motor control particularly important in a high-performance analogue system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadikal replaces the conventional LP12 AC motor with a 13-segment precious-metal brushed DC motor. Its advanced digital control system continuously monitors platter speed and adjusts motor operation to maintain exceptional rotational accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis precise control helps deliver greater consistency and stability, allowing the LP12 to reproduce music with improved timing, pitch accuracy and musical focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAdvanced Speed Management\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadikal measures platter speed on every rotation, allowing the system to identify and correct speed variations during operation. It also automatically calibrates the motor when the LP12 is powered on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sophisticated approach provides significantly more precise motor management than traditional LP12 power supply designs, helping the platter maintain the correct rotational speed throughout playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadikal supports both 33⅓ rpm and 45 rpm playback, making it suitable for a wide range of vinyl records.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eExternal Power Supply\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy moving the motor control and power supply outside the turntable, Radikal provides a cleaner environment for the LP12's sensitive mechanical components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe external unit houses the power supply and sophisticated motor control electronics, while the precision DC motor is installed within the turntable itself. This approach helps minimise the influence of electrical and mechanical interference on the LP12's delicate analogue playback system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cimg
