So what's changed with respect to the Mk V?

Well, we've anodised the structural grade aluminium (black) in order to improve looks and performance.  The anodising process produces a thin layer of aluminium oxide (alumina) which effectively protects the surface from further natural oxidation, but more importantly the process also serves to stiffen the aluminium itself.  We've also increased the thickness of the aluminium skin marginally whilst reducing the thickness of  the mdf layer. The weight of the Sole VI remains in keeping with that of  the Sole V & Linn steel chassis.

Our latest development of  the Sole has resulted in a thinner and more rigid assembly. The production version of the Mk VI Sole is some 2mm thinner in cross section than the Mk V before it.  Taking on board suggestions from well respected LP12 specialists we have  increased the size of the suspension grommet recesses to allow easier adjustment of the upper suspension grommets and springs.

For those who may chose to purchase options 4 or 5 we've  included an arm-board made on the same principle of construction as the Sole itself.

And here it is......
