Linn KDSM/1 upgraded to organik,what to do with the old p.c.b
Posted: 2023-06-05 20:14
Hi all,
Back in January I had my KDSM/1 upgraded to organik dac,when I got it back from the supplying Linn dealer,I asked for the old p.c.b back, which they did,as I had a need for a renew type dsm in my second system,I posted on the Linn forum if this could be done,and was flatly told no,it can't be re-used.
So I thought I would ask the same question here,does anyone know of anyone able to fit the old p.c.b into a plain case,no display is needed,and no ir receiver either,just a power switch and suitable p.s.u.
It would be used on the same network as the upgraded dsm,but never at the same time.
I was told Linn no longer offer the renew upgrade as it apparently hurt sales of new units.
But in these times of climate crisis,it seems such a waste of a perfectly good unit,which until I had it upgraded,I was quite happy with it.
I'm hoping someone here might be able to help,as this forum has always seemed to be helpful with thinking outside the box.
Any thoughts gratefully received.
