Re: Linn Trikan faulty driver - repairable?

The mid/bass driver for the Katan/Espek/Trikan is still available from Linn according to the 2022 spare parts list. The part number is SPKR 039/1 and it runs about $115 in the US. Your Linn dealer can order it for you. It includes a replacement grill and trim ring. Installation is pretty straightfo...

Re: Linn Trikan faulty driver - repairable?

Is there a way to remove the external grill so that I can get a better look at the driver? I have Espeks, and I think the surround is very similar. Gently insert a thin stiff lever (eg the tip of a blunt table knife) and pop the surround off. It is held by on by a recessed groove around the driver ...

Linn Trikan faulty driver - repairable?

Hello, music enthusiasts I recently snagged a pair of Linn Trikan speakers in an auction. They were delivered and, unfortunately one of the mid/ bass drivers appears to be faulty. My questions are: Is there a way to remove the external grill so that I can get a better look at the driver? I'll assume...

Re: Advice wanted: Water damage to LP collection

My accident still had a happy ending: they wet lp's were all stolen before I could report it to the insurance company. They later offered me a generous settlement for the stolen lp's, that financed my Radikal and Akubariks :-) Phew. Good to hear that something positive came out of this situation. P...

Re: Shorter pressing process

I $plurged on the recent Simon & Garfunkel UltraDisc One Step “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and, whilst both mastering and pressing is impeccable, I still get that niggling feeling that natural musicality and interplay is eschewed in favour of sonic mastery. The vinyl is the best I’ve seen out of the...

Re: Stylus Gunk

Are you able to apply SPT without it touching the cantilever then? Always seemed impossible to me but I will try with the loupe. I certainly find it a lot easier with the aid of an illuminated magnifier. The brush that Lyra provides with the SPT fluid should be angled, and a minuscule drop on the t...

Re: Stylus Gunk

Those loupe magnifiers are superb for stylus inspection - especially when applying Lyra's SPT fluid. I got mine from Jonny at Audio Origami: http://www.audioorigami.co.uk/for-sale/ [3rd item down] I also use the Lyra brush when dry, to loosen off any dust particles. As Lego says, the magnifier is a ...

It's worth keeping in mind that the current Lingo 3 is only differentiated by its casing. The insides haven't changed.
