Wot, no electrons?
So it is a nice sunny Saturday on the south coast, so I fired up the Briks system in the conservatory, streaming some prog from Morow Radio.
Just enjoying some Marillion, when.........silence and a funny smell. Noticed the Numerik power light had gone out. Checked that rest of system is OK by using the Kudos FM tuner.
First job is to get a working system back up, I had had the Karik CDP and RPi streamer both running digital streams into the Numerik, but by running the Karik’s analogue outputs straight into the Kairn, and pressing into service an old Musical Fidelity V-DAC for the streamer, we at least have a working system.
And so to the Numerik.........fuses OK, smell of burning from the area of the PSU block, but no scorch marks on the PCB.
Edit: took the cover off the PSU block and it's pretty obvious.....the scotch marks on the pcb are a bit of a give-away.
I don’t suppose that Linn will have anything to to with stuff that old.
Anybody got a spare Linn U25W SMPS they don't need?
Bummer, and it was such a lovely morning as well....
