Leave the resistors and coils as they are. OK, so no changes to the resistors at all? I got the impression that I almost certain got an improvement from raising the tweeter level. Why not in this case? The question is how much those bipolar caps change with time... ... If you can de-solder all of t...

Linnofil, interesting to hear about the Majik Kontrol. I've also been using this instead of dedicated headphone amp. Perhaps I should go for a cheaper pair of headphones and buy a low cost headphone amp as well (maybe 2nd hand)? I think I should point out that the Majik Kontrol isn't bad at all. In...

I have tried the 650's myself at home and I didn't like them at all. Very nice sound, but boring music. These were brand new and they may improve a lot with som burn in. I used the built in headphone amp on my Majik k. But the AKG k24P discussed here: http://www.lejonklou.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3...

I raised the tweeter level in the passive filter by about 0.4 dB with one extra parallel resistor (compared several values) and I think it was worth the effort. capacitors in the crossover, could they be getting old and need replacement? I think it depends on what filter model it is you have in the...

(Sorry for the OT Linnofil.) No need to apologize, it's fun to see some action in this thread! (To bad there is no action on the actual speakers. ;) I will try and order some tweeters soon. I have noticed that the "new" tweeters are not flat on the mounting surface. In the newer speakers the sealin...

If that tweeter is an original and in good shape, it certainly has value as they are difficult to find. Yepp, original and practically brand new! Will be removed gently. Any buyers out there? Send me a pm! :D capacitors in the crossover, could they be getting old and need replacement? I think it de...

Very interesting information, thank you Ceilidh! I just don't know what I would do without Linn in the future... A great opportunity for the Lejonklou brand, but that is a BIG hole to fill in the high end market! (If it ever would happen. Which it won’t! Ivor is back, he will make it work!)

Just grab the fabric in the middle on each side and slowly pull towards you. Gradually increase the force until the grille pops off from the baffle. The trick is not to be in a hurry, but give the glue/silicon time to break and loose its grip. I will report on the status of the grille after taking ...

You have an incredibly cool source first system, Azazello... Agree! I remember replacing my pair of Index Plus with Helix 1. At the time, I thought they were a lot better. http://www.blocket.se/vi/14041193.htm?ca=15_s In your price range? The Index's will be ideal for a Knekt zone later on if you d...

Maybe you already know this, but it was news for me. I saw some technical info on Topica. It was about the DAC's in the Klimax DS. I wonder if I will ever be able to compare the difference in performance that application/implementation and ultimately audio/music knowledge results in for these two un...

Yes, I can confirm that Ivor answer personal mails. I once contacted Ivor when I couldn't resolve a problem with Linns servicedepartment. Me and my dealer tried everything and got a not so nice response from service. We where basically idiots for not accepting a "fault free" product and they could ...

Thanks for all your inside information and tips. It looks like I have to go for the newer tweeters. I talked to an owner of Kan II's a couple of days ago at my dealers "Lejonklou musical evening". He had compared his renovated Kan II's (new tweeters, renovated woofers) with Unik (standing on Kan sta...

I have just bought a pair of late Linn Kan I's. Nostalgia! One of the treble units is a bit old. The other speaker has a new treble unit and that speaker now sound different/better. The question is, should I replace the old remaining treble unit, and get a fresh sounding pair of Kan I's? Is there an...

What is the matter with the roomamps? I don't know exactly. But there is an IC that has blown up and some wires on the PCB that has been "erased by current". They are just dead. Unfortunately I bought them (On eBay, not cheap enough! :twisted: ) this way and I don't know how they got damaged. Since...

Does anyone know what the exact policy is concerning service and repair cost for Linn products? Some say there is a fixed service charge for most products and another fixed service charge for the more expensive products such as the Klimax/Artikulate/Akurate range. Right? I thought so, until I tried ...

Is "the best output" the same om all Kairns, or do they differ on every Kairn? ... ok, I did a little test tonight. ... I see that you have already tried this with your own Kairn. I can't remember if the best output were the same on our Kairns. It was such a long time ago. But as always, true knowl...

I received the sensa and K24p and boy do they sound good together. --- Linnofil have you compared wma9 with other encoders and what do you think --- intek for 75GBP - linn kans - took them into my hairdressers and hooked them up to the sensa now the shop rocks big time! everyone seems happy at work...

No demo? So you placed an order without hearing it first? Do you trust us that much? (After all, it is a sizable sum of money.) I have no doubts that you are going to be stunned by the upgrade. On an LP12 such as yours the improvememnts are likely to be huge. Congratulations! Please report back when...

I have experimented with this in the past and I think I have an explanation to why different people can come to different conclusions. 1. The first time I tried this was in my own system (-96?)on a Kairn (No SMPS) with active Keilidhs (2xLK100) I first had daisychained and then tried parallel with g...

Exactly Fredrik! You need to be very careful with words! But when did you see a journalist who was just that? Word is that the Aston Martin contract has been cancelled That is the only disturbing news. :wink: Now I won't have time to save up and by the AM DB9 with a Linn system. (Although my current...

Absolutely stunning news! Great! It makes me want to promote Linn at work again... Now it is possible again, without looking to stupid when trying to explain the entry level into the world of Linn. This feels really good! :D Ivor is back and Linn seems to be on track again.

Pudel? I'we got an LP with The Fabulous Poodles (Think Pink) that is pretty good... :D

Great news indeed! This will bring in more customers to the Linn brand. Are these prices about the same as before the jump in prices that occured about a year ago? Will the Movie 05 be at the same price as the Movie Di before it was discontinued? It will be interesting to see the prices in my countr...

Thanks a lot Thomas, for bringing us such good news! I'm very happy that my first impression of the news has turned out wrong. May the force be with Linn! :D I feel for the emplyees who now are considered redundant, but it seems that the new direction is the wright one for Linn and (most of) their c...

Hm, you sound a bit pessimistic, Linnofil. I feel quite positive. First of all, it's hard to say what this article really means. That people are loosing jobs at Linn is of course sad for the employees, but the reorganisation is likely a good move for the company and in the end for both employees an...
