Hi all,
I have a linn klout that the right side amp module isn’t working and unless I unplug the right side it just blows fuses, does anyone have a schematic? Seeing as it’s nearly 30yrs old there’s no support anymore from linn and there are no linn dealers in upstate NY where I now live now (originally from the uk where I purchased my entire linn system).

Hi everyone, I too have a problem with the Klout... I recently changed all the capacitors because one channel was dead and I solved it but this summer a power surge knocked out the Klout. I changed a broken diode but before giving power to the amplifier I would like to have it tested by an electronic engineer friend but he asked me for the electronic diagram.
Do you have any information about the schematic and where to find it?
Hi everyone, although I'm not an expert, I'm trying to repair my Klout. On a control board (PCAS 161) I replaced a ceramic capacitor (C11) but I saw that the resistor R23 also burned out. The code for this one is 6:5 but I can't identify it and therefore I can't find it from retailers. The intact one measures approximately 5Mohm. The strange thing is that if the positive tip of the tester is placed on side 6 it gives the value of 5 Mohm, if placed on side 5 it gives 6.9Mohm. Does anyone know this type of resistor and where can I buy it?
check out the schematics in post #51+52 under
because of the great similarity - also of the protect unit - the circuit diagram of the "LK-280" was adapted to the "Klout" by me - therefore the "Klout" is implemented in all the schematics for LK2/LK2-80 (not genuine Linn, but from me created long before 2012).
Hello Folks !!
I'm doing the next couple of tweaks to my old Linn LK1 preamp
and the LK2 poweramps right now.
Some years ago I several caps in the RIAA section, most ps and
decoupling capacitors.
Parts used are Wima FKP3, Elna silmic, cerafine, BC 051 etc..
Now I will try Epcos Sikorel an Mundorf M-Lytic HC for the power amp
(ps is separate).
Biggest problem:
Coupling caps in the signal path even in the MC preamp are several tantal caps of small size.
Most of them are 100 + 22 µF parallel.
How to replace them? BG, Oscon, silmic ??
There's no space for FKPs..
:bawling...
