The LK85/140 and music The LK85 and LK140 are rugged high output amplifiers designed for ease of use and purity of sound. You can build exactly the system you want, using one or more LK85/140 amplifiers. The LK85 gives 85W per channel into 4, or 62W per channel into 8, and so is ideal for most average-sized rooms. Alternatively, additional power is available from the LK140, which gives 140W per channel into 4, or 95W per channel into 8. The LK85/140 comes in a durable compact case built to l

The LK85/140 is direct-coupled and servo-controlled to produce the clearest sound and the toroidal transformer is fully shielded to prevent hum when the amplifier is stacked with other products. The LK85/140 provides two input sockets to make it easy to daisy chain multi-amplifier systems, allowing you to boost the output power of your system, or take advantage or bi-amping and tri-amping. Loudspeakers can be bi-wired to the LK85/140 by the use of the two loudspeaker sockets to obtain even highe

For more performance, you can use two or three LK85/140s to bi-amp or tri-amp to the loudspeakers, each amplifier driving the bass, midrange, and treble signals separately. 4 When bi-amping or tri-amping the highest possible performance can be obtained by removing the passive crossover units from the loudspeaker and fitting active crossover modules to the LK85/140 to accurately divide the signal into the appropriate frequency bands. This is known as active playback. The LK85/140 is designed to b

Replacing the fuse To replace the fuse, first identify the correct fuse for your local voltage. This should be: • 3.15A anti-surge for 230V • 6.3A anti-surge for 115V • 6.3A anti-surge for 100V (Japanese version). Pull open the fuse drawer at the bottom of the mains inlet, insert the fuse in the rear compartment, and close the drawer. Earthing the LK85/140 The earthed moulded mains lead supplied must always be used with the LK85/140. Never use an unearthed plug or adaptor. 6 Positioning You can
