Linn Uphorik MM/MC Phono Stage

Fine-tune your turntable system to get the perfect sound from your vinyl with Linn Uphorik.

Uphorik features separate dedicated inputs and circuits for MM (Moving Magnet) and MC (Moving Coil) cartridges, with adjustment switches which allow you to easily optimise your settings to your particular cartridge.

Uphorik is developed from our reference internal phono stage, Urika, and makes our latest technological advances, such as dual mono topology and fully screened differential input, available to all in a stand-alone design.

Uphorik's flexibility also extends to connections, with a choice of balanced or unbalanced outputs, and RCA or XLR inputs, which guarantees Uphorik will always match your requirements.

Uphorik is the output from four decades of turntable development and expertise, and represents Linn's continued commitment to retrieving more information from the record than ever before.

Upgrade your phono stage to Linn Uphorik to re-ignite a love affair with vinyl.
