Linn Kairn internal battery replacement.


hello all,
I've just bought a second hand Linn Kairn (phono) and have powered it up to get the "ERR 2 dont panic" messge. It only cost me 300 dollars so I'm not too upset. Has anyone replaced the internal battery ?? If so does anyone know of a set of instructions anywhere. I've had the case off and its not obvious as to where it is. The brilliant power supply looks nice though.

I dont know much about this pre-amp, so general opinions/comments would be appreciated. I hope Its not going to be a bit of an Albertross.

Wishing you all well.

Myron.

Hi,

I've encountered the same problem too. The "don't panic..." appeared. Unfortunately my Kairn died on me. No more sound is coming out of it.

Does anyone here have the owner's manual where I can perform a hard reset in hope of reviving my pre-amp?

Or better still, where can I obtain the schematics for the Linn Kairn?

Would appreciate any help at all.

Cheers
desperate Linn Kairn owner...
