Thanks, the tw D2008/8511 is no ferrofluid, (mounted in my SBLs), the D2008/8512 is ferrofluid version. :cool:

A clever solution Colasblue, I'll try :D Many thanks. G.

What is the right tweeter replacement for SBL?

Today I listen with a my dear friend the Kans and the SBLs. He noticed (I had the suspect) that the SBLs lack of HF respect to the Kans. I bought my SBL in 2011, they are mk1 (1991) with mk2 bass driver, passive mode, my question is do the tweeters work correctly? Are they degraded? The...

I think is better to open a specific topic...

Linn Kan history is the following (from Linn forum), my Kans are the first release, SN 17xxx with binding post. G. KU-STONE Fitted to speakers, units now fitted with gaskets instead of silicone. (Upgrade not retrofittable) Sept.91 48,489/90 Crossover: Revision no. changed to PCAS...

Before to buy SBL in 2011 I used Kans with 32.5, Hicap, 250 :D Ok, I think that it's time to buy a 42/110 (another I bought a lot of Naim pre/power amps for my friend in the past). I'll try to look for. Thank you guys! G.

The Kans are in my pc room driven with a Quad 303, a Nad 3020 is used as a preamp. I've the Mk2 stands close to the wall. The SBL are in the living room driven with a NAIM combo 32.5, HiCap, 250. I think that is the setup to make the difference. Thank you for your answer. G.

Hi, I'm Guido from Italy, in 2008 I bought a couple of Kans MK 1 in UK with serial number 17xxx (1981?). I love these loudspeaker, particularly the medium high range, the Scanspeak tweeter is exceptional. I'm looking for a loudpeaker with the same sound of the Kan but with more bass...

Yesterday I changed all the tants but unsuccessfully so I tried to change the differential input pair and the offset decreased from 3.2V to less than 10mV. I don't understand why but one of the bjt of the input pair had the junctions ok but the hfe was very low, a sick bjt!

All the supplies was connected properly. I will try to: 1. swap the feedback cap with the cap in the 'good' board 2. the same but with the input cap 3. the same but with the BC239C input pair Guido.

Thank you, this evening I will try to swap the caps between the boards. G.

Hallo guys. Yesterday I fully recapped (tants and reservoir caps) a NAP 140 and after the bias check I found an offset voltage of about 3.2V on the right channel. The bias is set to 7mV read on the green resistors on the left and the right channel. What is wrong, any idea? Thank you in...

If I remember well I used Kemet T356, the distance between the leads was the same btw the holes in the pcb. I used 10uF 35V and 47uF 6V (NAP 140) or 100uF 6V (NAP 250) Guido.
