Anyone got a Linn Kudos tuner? Question

I'm afraid the display on the Kudos is made that way - to turn off after a few minutes going to two horizontal bars.

I like to modify tuners with LED displays by changing the color of the display. I mention this because my Kudos was doing the same thing. My research on the issue revealed that the display on the Kudos is made to do it that way, and it unfortunately can't be changed.

Well glad to hear that. SO mine is not the only one that does that. Not really a problem but since it is not mentioned in their downloadable manual, I was wondering. Reading some old forum threads I googled, it may be that the tuner at some point went to a different power supply but mine has straightforward linear supplies with a rather hulking toroid transformer off to the side. And a voltage selector on the bottom, and a bothersome PAL antenna jack. But adapters are cheap online.

Does anyone have a schematic they can share of the Kudos? Mine is behaving strangely - no output, doesn't scan, but otherwise seems to power up OK. Cheers

i have the same issue, did you get it sorted ?

Hi ant, sadly no. I ended up taking it to a technician I use from time to time, but they had no luck either. One thing I did notice was that the signal strength indication (which you get to by pressing one of the buttons a couple of times) was reading 50. This led me to suspect and replace the rf mixer under the shielded can, but that didn't improve things. So, for the moment the box is sitting there unrepaired. I would love to get it going as I have a matching amp and Karik CDP, so do let me know if you make progress with yours. Good luck!
