LK2 Service Manual

Introduction
About the LK2 Series
There were three versions of the LK2: · The first version was known at the time simply as the LK2. It gave an output of 60 watts per channel (into 8 ohm load) and used PCAS 003 type boards. For the purposes of this manual, we will refer to this version as the LK260. · The second type was also usually known as the LK2 but was often called the LK275 to differentiate it from the 60-watt version, as it gave 75 watts per channel. Also used PCAS 003 type boards but with several improvements over the 60 watt version ­ the most obvious being the increased power output, but also had improved protection circuitry and better sound. · The third and last type was known universally as the LK280. 80 watts per channel ­ used PCAS 020 boards. PCAS 020s, at first glance are similar to PCAS 003s, in that they are roughly the same size, shape and layout, but they are a completely different design of board (i.e. not just a modified version of PCAS 003) as a closer examination shows. The LK280 sounded considerably better than either of its predecessors.

How to differentiate between types of LK2
There are several methods of determining the specification of an LK2: · Looking at the serial number of a unit and using the LK2 Product History (accessible via Linfo website ­ Product Information) will tell you which revision it was sold as. Since, however upgrade kits were sold by Linn in large quantities to allow customers to convert their early version LK2 into the latest spec, many units are not what they seem. The following information will help you to determine the specification of a unit if its exact history is unknown. · LK280s had "LK280" printed on the facia ­ earlier units (LK2 & LK275) had "LK2" printed there, but beware ­ an earlier version may have been upgraded to LK280 spec. · LK260s and LK275s had a red power LED and LK280s had a green LED. This is handy as a quick and easy indicator but is not 100% reliable (LEDs are easily changed) · The best way to determine a unit's spec is simply to remove the sleeve and look at the boards that are fitted (see below).

About this manual
This manual deals effectively with three quite distinct amplifiers. The amps have enough in common to justify this approach and this avoids the confusion that might come with separate manuals. Any differences between the types will be dealt with in the "Circumstances" column ­ e.g. Applies to LK280 only. This manual is designed to help you, as a Linn Retailer or Distributor, to repair as many LK2 faults at your repair centre as is practical and so provide the best possible service for your customer should a problem arise. If you have any suggestions or comments regarding this manual, please contact Paul O'Neill at Linn Products Ltd: By E-mail [email protected] By Phone ++44 (0) 141 303 5005 By Fax ++44 (0) 141 644 4262 Marked for attention of Paul O'Neill

Retailer & Distributor Obligations
Linn Specialist Retailers or Distributors are obliged to carry out the repairs in this manual under the terms of the contract & warranty agreements. You should return a faulty product to Linn for repair, only if the fault is not covered in this Service Manual. If a product, which is under warranty, is returned to Linn for repair and the fault is covered in the service manual, Linn may levy a charge and this charge should not be passed to the customer.

Spare Parts Availability and LK2 repair
Please note that the LK2 has been discontinued for some considerable time now and as such, we cannot guarantee the supply of spare parts ­ many are simply no longer available and some others are no longer in stock. Some part numbers are listed throughout this manual, but these are provided for information only and this does not imply that these parts will be available should you request them. Linn guarantee that we will support a product until 5 years after the final build. We take this obligation very seriously and also go much further. Beyond this date, we will repair any Linn product that we possibly can, where it is within our power to do so. However, due to the difficulty with the availability of spare parts, as explained above, it is occasionally not possible to repair a product or supply parts for repair, if the necessary parts are not available.

How to use this manual
The main body of this manual, the fault table, is designed to be as quick and simple as possible to use when you are confronted with a faulty product and so it is arranged by fault symptom as the symptom is usually all that you will know about the fault. Also read the "LK2 fault finding ­ Hints & Tips " section below as the information contained there may save you a lot of time. If you are unsure about the meaning of any words or phrases, look in the Glossary. (accessible via Linfo Website - Product Information) Before embarking on any Service work, you should read the Service Procedures section (accessible via Linfo Website - Product Information), as there are certain procedures that must be followed in order to ensure the problem is resolved quickly and permanently Table of contents & fault symptoms Look firstly at the table of contents and find the category that covers the symptom you are seeing, then look down the list of faults in that section until you find the symptom or symptoms that best describe the problem. Circumstances Then simply follow the table along ­ the table specifies circumstances surrounding the fault symptom ­ e.g. whether the fault is likely to be intermittent or constant, if the fault only occurs within a range of serial numbers etc. Possible causes The next column details possible causes ­ this is effectively the most important section, probably the main reason you are looking at this manual at all. There may be several possible causes for the symptom you have ­ it is worth checking out all of these (and bear in mind that there may be more than one fault). For Page3 Contents

some faults, simple checks are detailed that you can use to rule out the problem without replacing any parts, whereas for other faults, the simplest way to rule out the problem is to replace the component(s) listed Cure Quite simply the action that you must take to cure the problem.

Important Safety Information & Installation Advice
Mains connections
This appliance must be earthed ­ both for Safety and functional reasons.

Lethal Voltages
Inside the LK2, lethal voltages are present, avoid powering up an LK2 with the sleeve removed or with any live parts exposed. If you must work under such circumstances, DO NOT touch any part of the circuitry or any electrical connections and take great care to avoid electrocution.

Placement
Location & Environment Do not locate near electronic products that may transmit RF, such as computers, fax machines, TVs etc, or connect them to the same mains socket as these devices. Also avoid close contact with the mains or signal leads of such products ­ careful routing of the cable may be required. Although the LK2 can usually be stacked along with other products with no problem, it is better if possible to keep it apart from other products to prevent its operation being adversely affected by the heat and strong electrical field emitted by some products; also - since the LK2 can emit a considerable amount of heat and has a fairly strong electrical field, it is better to keep it away from other devices that may be adversely affected by this. Avoid locations that have high humidity or the chance of the unit getting wet. Avoid locations where there is a lot of dust. Handling & general maintenance. Always handle the LK2 with great care ­ IT IS VERY HEAVY. Always turn off the LK2 and wait at least 30 seconds before connecting or disconnecting any plugs to/from the sockets at the back of the unit to avoid damage to the speakers. If you are carrying out any work on the LK2 with its' sleeve removed, ALWAYS take anti-static precautions as tiny static discharges from your body, which you may be completely unaware of, can damage electronic circuitry and cause major problems. Anti-static earth mats & wrist straps must be used when handling any of the circuit boards or any spare parts.

Procedure for Dismantling and Re-assembling the LK2
Step 1. Remove the boards from the LK2 Remember to keep all the screws and other parts that you remove from the LK2 in a safe place to re-use later. 1. Disconnect LK2 from everything and especially the mains (or Spark). 2. Place a soft cloth on the workbench & lie the LK2 upside down on the cloth. Using a No2 posidriv screwdriver, remove the 4 screws that hold the sleeve on to the LK2. Stand the LK2 on its facia and slide the sleeve up and off. Carefully set it aside in a safe place where it will not get scratched or damaged. 3. Remove the 4 allen bolts or screws (older units used screws) holding the speaker sockets on to the back panel. Do this to both channels. 4. Disconnect both transformer connectors (the cables going from transformer to board) from the board 5. Lift the LK2 up so that it is standing on one of the heatsinks. Each channel is held into the tray by 2 countersunk screws that attach to the heatsink on the underside. Hold the channel that is now uppermost (to prevent it from falling once it has been freed) and remove the two screws from this channel only. Lie the LK2 down (correct way up) and remove the channel that you have just loosened ­ this can sometimes be tricky so follow these instructions: · Pull the board slightly toward the front of the unit until the 3-pin cannon input socket at the rear is clear of the back panel ­ it may sometimes be necessary to push the back panel slightly in the opposite direction until the socket is completely clear. · Lift the end of the board containing the 3-pin cannon socket upwards (see picture) until that end of the board is clear of the tray. Some delicate manoeuvring may be necessary, but don't force it.

2. Move the entire board in this direction

1. Lift this end up until clear of tray

· · Step 2/

By carefully moving the board backwards & upwards, it should now be possible to lift it up and out of the tray. Repeat the above instruction for the other channel

Step 2. Remove the heatsinks from the boards (if required) Using the 5.5mm spanner or nut-runner, loosen the single nut/bolt found beside the 3-pin cannon socket (see picture below) ­ do not remove the nut completely, but loosen it to the point where only a very small amount of the bolt is protruding from one side of the nut. 2. The board is now held on to the heatsink by 4 allen screws or 4 nuts/bolts (see picture below). · If nuts/bolts are fitted, loosen them but do not remove them (as with single bolt above), pull the board upwards until there is a gap between the board and the heatsink and then slide the board to one side. If the board will not move easily, check that you have loosened all 5 nuts/bolts. If all are loosened correctly and it is still not free, the board may be held on by the heatsink compound and will require some slight pressure to free it. · If the board is held on by allen screws, completely remove all 4 screws, lift the board away from the heatsink and slide the single bolt beside the cannon socket sideways to free the board. 1.

Loosen the single bolt found here

Nuts & bolts or allen screws found at these 4 locations

Do not remove these two screws

3.

Use a tissue or paper towel to clean the heatsink compound from the board and from the heatsink (if you don't, you will find out very quickly that heatsink compound has a knack of ending up all over your clothes, hands, face etc)

Step 3. Re-assemble the LK2 1. Re-attach the heatsink: Apply heatsink compound in a single line along the centre of the coupling block as shown below Heatsink compound here

If board was attached to heatsink by nuts & bolts ­ follow the instructions below: · Remove all five bolts from the board and slide the bolts into the slots, arranged as shown below

Heatsink

Slide the bolts into the slots - positioned as shown · · · Place the board onto the heatsink so that all the bolts pass through their respective holes on the board (some readjustment is usually necessary). Screw the nuts onto the bolts but do not tighten fully. Adjust the position of the board with respect to the heatsink so that the two are matched up ­ i.e. the two are parallel with each other and neither the board nor the heatsink are protruding at either side (see pictures below ­ exaggerated to show problems clearly)
Heatsink protruding from one side Heatsink not parallel to board

·

Once heatsink and board are matched up, tighten bolts.

If heatsink was attached with allen screws: Page7 Contents

· · · · · 2. 3. 4.

Slide the single nut/bolt (still attached to board) into the middle of its slot ­ do not tighten Rest the board on the heatsink in a central position. Line up the screw holes in the board with those in the heatsink and screw in all four screws ­ but do not tighten fully. Line up the board and heatsink so that they are parallel and level with each other (as diagrams above) and then tighten the screws fully. Tighten the nut/bolt Refit boards into tray ­ just do the reverse of the dismantling process described at the start of this document. Refit sleeve Test amp fully

Fault Finding on the LK2 ­ hints & tips
The LK2 circuitry is notoriously difficult to fault-find on in the traditional way (tracing signals, measuring voltages etc), so this manual seeks to help you to avoid this ordeal. Check the fault tables below firstly, to see if your fault is included and if not, use the information in this section. Trip One issue that may prevent you from fault-finding is the inclusion of the "Trip" or protection circuitry which will shut down the entire board if it detects a problem that might cause damage to the amp or the speakers. If trip occurs, it makes fault finding very very difficult as no power reaches the amplifier section of the board. If this happens it is best to try to find the fault with the power off ­ use the information found in the Fault Tables below and in this section. Isolating Faulty Components in the LK2 Circuit Common Faults Around 60-70% of faults in an LK260 or LK275 board only (i.e. not LK280) are attributable to just 4 components. See "LK2 Reliability Modifications" (accessible via Linfo ­ Product Information) for instructions on how to replace these components and prevent re-occurrence. This modification is a good first step for a faulty PCAS 003 board and should even be carried out to working boards as a preventative measure. Transistors The majority of remaining faults on an LK2 board are caused by faulty transistors, so this is a good place to start. If the transistors develop a fault, they normally develop a short circuit (zero ohms) or low impedance across one or more junctions, so it is usually quite a simple job to trace the faulty transistor by measuring across every junction of every transistor ­ while the transistor is still in circuit. This might seem daunting, given the number of transistors on each board, but it is definitely a worthwhile exercise as it may save you many hours of conventional fault­finding and does not take as long as you might think (about 20 minutes per board). Just measure the impedance across all 3 junctions (Emitter ­ Bass; Emitter ­ Collector; Bass ­ Collector) of every transistor on the faulty board. In general a working junction will measure many Kohms or even Megohms, whereas a faulty junction will tend to measure almost short circuit ­ perhaps a few ohms ­ possibly up to 500ohms at most. If in doubt, compare with the same junction on the good channel and replace transistor if you suspect faulty. It is advised that you check every single transistor on the board, i.e. don't stop if you find a faulty one, as quite often there is more than one faulty transistor on the board. Remember to include the big transistors (the 4 that are clamped to the heatsink) when measuring. The above test, while not absolutely guaranteed to find every faulty transistor, will find the vast majority. Remember that it is quite common for more than one component to be faulty, as often a faulty component will cause damage to others around it in the circuit. See below for advice on how to check for this. Other components Other components are slightly less straightforward. The same principles as with Transistors above can be applied (measure using an ohmmeter) but there is a lot more work involved and a lesser chance of success as these parts are less likely to go faulty and less likely to follow such a straightforward pattern as the transistors. If you have a fault that is not caused by any of the faults listed in this manual ­ i.e. the fault tables and this section - then try to narrow the fault down to an area of the circuitry using conventional fault-finding and then measure and/or replace the components in that area. Resistors can of course be easily measured for impedance but are very unlikely to go faulty unless another component failure has damaged them, so look for telltale signs like scorching etc on or around the resistor that might indicate this. The Capacitors on this circuit can also be checked using an ohmmeter as above. Sometimes capacitors will internally short-circuit so worth a quick measurement. Check the components (as transistors above) using an ohmmeter.

Transformer faulty. To check if it is definitely the transformer, power down the unit, replace fuse, disconnect the transformer output from the Main board and power up. If the transformer IS the cause, the fuse will continue to blow. If the fuse remains intact, the fault is more likely to be on the board. Bridge rectifier diode on amplifier board faulty (probably internally short circuit). These are the four large diodes which can be found on the underside of each amplifier board, under the big capacitors Try measuring across all four with an ohmmeter ­ if one has an internal short circuit, it should be quite obvious.

Trip (protection) problems
Important information about the Trip / Protection circuitry About `Trip' The LK2 series had a trip circuit for each channel, which was designed to protect the LK2 board and/or speakers from a potentially damaging "over-current" situation. This means that if the LK2 senses that it is drawing too much current, it shuts down the affected channel. This situation may be caused by a faulty speaker (internal short circuit), speaker cables shorted together, very loud music, faulty pre-amp etc. How to clear trip Once a channel trips, it will remain in `trip-mode' until the LK2 is switched off for up to 20 minutes. It is best to ensure that you leave the unit switched off for the full 20 minutes ­ if you power it up before it has fully discharged / un-tripped, the trip capacitors will charge up again and you will have to wait another full 20 minutes. We have heard of customers who do not leave it switched off for long enough, switching it on before it is ready and perhaps doing this a few times then think the product has a permanent fault. Continuous or repeated tripping It is important to remember that the trip circuitry is included as protection and the LK2 may be tripping for a very good reason. If tripping occurs continuously or even occasionally, it may be because the LK2 is doing its job correctly and something within the system is causing it to trip. The source of the problem needs to be isolated and removed (perhaps the speaker or the speaker cable, the pre-amp is faulty etc). See Introduction to Fault Finding for tips on how to trace (accessible via Linfo ­ Product Information). It is, of course also possible that the LK2 is faulty, in which case, see table below.

LK2(60) & LK275 Reliability Modifications
Some components on the PCAS 003 (used in the LK260 & LK275) are sometimes prone to failure after many years of use. This modification can be carried out as a preventative measure to prolong the life of the amplifier or as a combined repair / prevention if one of the components has failed. Carrying out this modification will repair around 60 ­ 70% of LK2 faults

Important Information about this modification
· · · Please read through this procedure in its entirety before starting any work. It is important to follow ALL instructions carefully and exactly This procedure involves soldering and de-soldering and it is advised that only personnel with a fairly high degree of soldering skill undertake this task. Due to the age and the years of heat stress ­ some of the solder joints may have changed their chemical properties and if this is the case it will be quite difficult to melt them. Use flux (or melt new solder onto the old solder joint), Use heat and patience - not force. The changes outlined in this procedure will protect the LK2 from similar potential failures in the future by using higher wattage resistors than were originally used and adjusting the position of some components to minimise heat damage It is advised that all these modifications are carried out to both channels.

· ·

Estimated time for completion of this task:
1 hour

CAUTION ­ Important Safety Information
· Residual Voltage. With certain faults especially but also under normal circumstances, there can be residual voltage stored in the boards which could cause quite a serious electric shock. To avoid this, it is best to leave the LK2 switched off for a few hours before starting work on it and then using a voltmeter, measure across the metal contacts of each of the big capacitors (DO NOT TOUCH) on each channel (DC voltage). If there is a voltage remaining on these capacitors then it is important to discharge it ­ either short across the + & - contacts with a screwdriver ­ this can cause a harmless but spectacular and terrifying bang combined with a huge spark. It is much more pleasant to connect one of the resistors that you will use for the mod ­ the 2.4Kohm/2.5Watt and connect this across the contacts of the capacitors until the voltage has discharged. The LK2 is very heavy and has sharp fins on the heatsink ­ be very careful when lifting, handling, dismantling and re-assembling not to injure yourself.

LK2 Reliability Modifications

Fault Symptoms
There are several different symptoms, depending on what component has failed (symptoms usually affect one channel only): · No output at all · Bad distortion at output · DC at output

Units affected
Potentially all LK260s or LK275s (those not upgraded to LK280)

Note ­ if you cannot find the above parts available in your local area, some alternatives are available in the case of the resistor wattage values: It is possible to use a higher wattage resistor in each case, although it tends to be the case that the higher the wattage, the larger the resistor and it may not be able to physically fit in the space available or may touch against another device or component, especially in the case of R33 (not a good idea). It is possible to use a slightly lower wattage resistor in each case, however if too low. this will shorten the life of the resistor and the fault may re-occur. A minimum of 1 watt is recommended.

LK2 Reliability Modifications

Procedure
Step 1. Remove the boards from the LK2 Remember to keep all the screws and other parts that you remove from the LK2 in a safe place. 1. 2. Disconnect LK2 from everything and especially the mains (or Spark). Place a soft cloth on the workbench & lie the LK2 upside down on the cloth. Using a No2 posidriv screwdriver, remove the 4 screws that hold the sleeve on to the LK2. Stand the LK2 on its facia and slide the sleeve up and off and carefully set it aside in a safe place where it will not get scratched or damaged. Remove the 4 allen bolts or screws (older units used screws) holding the speaker sockets on to the back panel. Do this to both channels. Disconnect both transformer connectors (the cables going from transformer to board) from the board Lift the LK2 up so that it is standing on one of the heatsinks. Each channel is held into the tray by 2 countersunk screws that attach to the heatsink on the underside. Hold the channel that is now uppermost (to prevent it from falling once it has been freed) and remove the two screws from this channel only. Lie the LK2 down (correct way up) and remove the channel that you have just loosened ­ this can sometimes be tricky so follow these instructions: · Pull the board slightly toward the front of the unit until the 3-pin cannon input socket at the rear is clear of the back panel ­ it may sometimes be necessary to push the back panel slightly in the opposite direction until the socket is completely clear. · Lift the end of the board containing the 3-pin cannon socket upwards (see picture) until that end of the board is clear of the tray. Some delicate manoeuvring may be necessary, but don't force it.

3. 4. 5.

2. Move the entire board in this direction

1. Lift this end up until clear of tray

· ·

By carefully moving the board backwards & upwards, it should now be possible to lift it up and out of the tray. Repeat the above instruction for the other channel

LK2 Reliability Modifications

Step 2. Remove the heatsinks from the boards 1. Using the 5.5mm spanner or nut-runner, loosen the single nut/bolt found beside the 3-pin cannon socket (see picture below) ­ do not remove the nut completely, but loosen it to the point where only a very small amount of the bolt is protruding from one side of the nut. The board is now held on to the heatsink by 4 allen screws or 4 nuts/bolts (see picture below). · If nuts/bolts are fitted, loosen them but do not remove them (as with single bolt above), pull the board upwards until there is a gap between the board and the heatsink and then slide the board to one side. If the board will not move easily, check that you have loosened all 5 nuts/bolts. If all are loosened correctly and it is still not free, the board may be held on by the heatsink compound and will require some slight pressure to free it. · If the board is held on by allen screws, completely remove all 4 screws, lift the board away from the heatsink and slide the single bolt beside the cannon socket sideways to free the board.

2.

Loosen the single bolt found here

Nuts & bolts or allen screws found at these 4 locations

Do not remove these two screws

3.

Use a tissue or paper towel to clean the heatsink compound from the board and from the heatsink (if you don't, you will find out very quickly that heatsink compound has a knack of ending up all over your clothes, hands, face etc)

LK2 Reliability Modifications

Step 3. Carry out the modification Locate the components as listed in the table below and replace with the values shown (see pictures below for location of these components). Do this for both channels. Please note ­ R49 ­ depending on what size of part you have purchased, it may be too big for the space available. If so, the part can be inserted to stand up as shown below. R49 resistor leg bent into this shape R49 resistor body ­ standing at 90 degrees to board 1.

Circuit board

Please note ­ R33 is located underneath one of the big capacitors C16 (see picture below). The capacitor holder must be removed from the board to access the resistor. Turn the board upside down and you will see that the capacitor holder is held by two nuts/bolts. Remove the two nuts and the capacitor will come away from the board ­ but be careful, as it will still be held by a pair of wires. If the nuts/bolts keep spinning instead of coming loose, insert a medium sized flat-blade screwdriver under the capacitor and press it against the head of the bolt while turning the nut ­ this usually provides enough grip to hold the bolt so that the nut comes free. Component R33 R49 C6 C19 Replace with: 20Kohm, 2.5Watt resistor 2.4Kohm, 2.5Watt resistor 68pF 160V Polystyrene capacitor 220pF 160V Polystyrene capacitor

R33 is found underneath this capacitor C6 Q10

2.

In order to prevent the two polystyrene capacitors that you have just replaced from failing at a later date, make the following small adjustments to the position of some components: · Bend Q10 away from C6 (towards the middle of the board). As shown in picture above · Bend C6 away from Q10 (towards the 3-pin cannon socket). As shown in picture above · Bend C19 away from Q10 towards R49 but do not bend it too close to R49 ­ position it so that it is about half way between Q10 and R49. As shown in picture above These steps are advised because Q10 and R49 get quite hot and can sometimes melt the polystyrene capacitors (over a period of many years). Positioning the components as above minimises the effect of this heat and prolongs the life of the capacitors.

3. 1.

Step 4. Re-assemble the LK2

Re-attach the capacitor C16 that you removed to access R33. Use a medium sized flat-bladed screwdriver to hold the head of the bolt while you screw the nut back into place. Ensure nuts are tight as, if they come loose later, they may short out the circuitry while the unit is powered up and cause major damage. 2. Re-attach the heatsink: Apply heatsink compound in a single line along the centre of the coupling block as shown below Heatsink compound here

If board was attached to heatsink by nuts & bolts ­ follow the instructions below: · Remove all five bolts from the board and slide the bolts into the slots, arranged as shown below

Heatsink

Slide the bolts into the slots - positioned as shown · · · Place the board onto the heatsink so that all the bolts pass through their respective holes on the board (some readjustment is usually necessary). Screw the nuts onto the bolts but do not tighten fully. Adjust the position of the board with respect to the heatsink so that the two are matched up ­ i.e. the two are parallel with each other and neither the board nor the heatsink are protruding at either side (see pictures below ­ exaggerated to show problems clearly)
Heatsink protruding from one side Heatsink not parallel to board

C.Des (Component Designator)
Every component on every Linn circuit board has an individual identification code known as a `Component Designator' (C001, Q012, R345 etc). The designator shown in the table matches that printed on the circuit board beside each component. These designators are coded according to type of component ­ at the start of each designator there is a letter and this describes the component type. The main types are shown below: C - Capacitor P - Connector Q - Transistor R - Resistor U - IC The components are listed in alphabetical order by Component Designator

Part Number
Our internal part number for the component. Quote this part number if ordering the part from Linn. We advise however that you try to source parts locally as most components are commonly available from any good electronic parts supplier much faster and cheaper than we can supply and also, not every part listed here can be ordered from Linn. If you have problems finding the part locally, we will do our best to help you, but we cannot guarantee availability of any part listed.

Description
All the technical details that you will require to order the part from your local or national electronic spares supplier. Includes (if applicable) the name(s) of our preferred manufacturer(s) for each part.
