Linn LP12 Valhalla 45 rpm


This is the most embarassing question I've ever posed here. I bought a used LP 12 Valhalla many years ago and always assumed that, like my previous LP12, it won't play 45 rpm. But now I think that maybe there's an adapter for the Valhalla Linns. True? I'd sure like to get some of those 45 rpm Fantasy Jazz reissues.

I ordered the OL DC motor kit. Way too expensive just to get 45rpm, but I'm expecting a substantial boost in the performance of my Linn, so that's a good thing. Thanks for your help, everybody.
Yeah, but a bargain compared to the Lingo and most people consider it superior. Add that to the increasing difficulty of getting worthwhile LP12 support from Linn and it becomes a relative bargain.
There are so few LP12 dealers anymore and I think it's because Linn forces them to carry the whole line. Seems like it would be good for the brand to allow a little more selectivity, so some dealers could carry just the source components if they wanted to.
About the force required to push-on the Linn LP12 45 rpm adapter, just flip the adapter over and it goes on with much less force. One way it's very hard, the other way it goes on as silk. It works both ways.
